Summer fishing get-together?

I'm going to be back in the US for 5 weeks this summer, and will be
doing a drive from Maine to Indianapolis, back through DC, then back
to Maine during that time. If anyone wants to get together and fish
for a day or so, I'm way up for it.

My schedule is this:
Arrive in Maine on July 3.
Drive to IND, in time for a conference from July 8-12
Drive IND-DC on July 13
Return to Maine for the rest of the summer
Fly back to HK on Aug 8.

It would be fun to get together in Maine with any Maynahs, or meet up
with any roffians between Maine and Indiana, Indiana and DC, or DC and
Maine while driving through. My travel dates are flexible (just not
the week I need to be in Indiana, and my flight arrival and departure
dates).

Anyone interested, email me or post here.

And are there any fishing opps in or around Indianapolis?

Of course, I got the dates wrong by a day.

Arrive in Maine on July 2.
Drive to IND, in time for a conference from July 7-11
Drive IND-DC on July 12
DC-Maine around July 15
Maine for the rest of the summer
Fly back to HK on Aug 7.

I take it from this, Myron, that we will not be seeing you in the sunny
North this summer?

No, damnitall, and I regret it already. I had a non-negotiable for
early summer (a wedding in the middle east), and the rest of the
summer was wide open after that. My heart was into the idea of
spending a solid amount of time in Scandanavia (man, I LOVE it up
there in the summer), then coming back to HK for another Mongolia
trip, then back to school. But the Mongolia trip evaporated (too few
participants this year), and then I had to find a place to get some
professional training, and it turned out to be in the US. I could have
changed that, but I kept imagining the angst of spending a whole month
wandering alone around Sweden and only being able to hook up with you
guys on the weekends, so at the last minute, I booked tickets to the
US, paid for the conference, and made my final plans to spend a month
wandering around Maine with my canoe and fly rod instead.

The very next frigging day, I hear from Roger that he has 6 weeks
vacation, and it turns out that it would have been a sweet summer
after all, with a travel partner and fishing galore, etc. But its too
late to cancel the tickets and change my plans now. So I'm stuck with
lots of 'what-ifs'. :-(

Even when we have complete control of our plans, we don't always have
control of them.

Pity! My summer was looking iffy because Åsa and I have bought a new
house - so we have to move, sell and clean the existing place, sort all
that crap out with the bank blah blah. But the house sold quick and we
will move late June so summer is looking better already..... The new
house is big and right next (literally) to a good fishing rapid on
Vindelälven (so Roger tells me anyway). I was thinking it would be a
nice place for you to idle between more extensive trips.

Next year maybe. You are always welcome to a spare room.

cheers

myron,
when you're heading from DC up to Maine, I might be able to share some
fishing over a decent Trico hatch up this way. Get in touch with me.

I should be in DC when you're coming through. Ping me here as we
get closer; maybe we can target smallmouth in the N. Fork of the
Shenandoah or some trout a bit west of there. If time is a
constraint, might find some smallmouth closer in on the Potomac.

I know a gear whore in Indy that might be available. Hell, we can
even drag Forty along for some smallies. I'll make the drive.

I used to fish the White River near a campground just north
of Indianapolis. It's a pretty nice smallmouth stream there.
I was there for the Grateful Dead at Deer Creek Music Center
so fishing wasn't top priority and I haven't had an Indiana
license since.

I live two hours west of Indy and there are fishing opportunities
around here but by July the lakes fish better for largemouth than
the streams for smallmouth.

Give me a call when you're around and we'll find something to
cast to.

Here, here. read my mind. Tricos should be prime by then. Count me in
as long as it's after July 13th (will be enjoying Cicada Madness on Penn's
that week). Actually the weekend after may be perfect for a Trico jaunt,
I'll need a fix by then. .
