New Year’s Report from Me to You

New Year’s Report from Me to You

Happy New Year! Thank you for reading this New Year’s Report. I trust and hope everyone is not too hung over from wild revelry on New Year’s Eve. I was in bed at 10 PM myself…

The wind blew hard all week, cutting into fishing opportunities. You find other things to do.

I have a guest post about solo paddle fly fishing in the everglades at Fish Untamed. You can read it at this link- https://fishuntamed.com/solo-fly-fishing-in-the-everglades/

Also, I have been writing a series of mini-digital magazines on Magma Now. The latest is about the Lodge at Whale Pass .

You can see the collection and find new ones as they are posted at https://magmanow.com/@spottedtail/

Yes, I have been trying to keep busy.

Monday– I went fishing in the Indian River Lagoon, since I had not been in a long time. I had shots at two redfish. They both spooked off the fly, not that I could really see what was happening. Cold and with a solid north wind, it would have been a tough day anyway. Plus the water is pretty gross looking, with lots of Rhodophyta everywhere. I did get to meet this fellow, though, after a manner of speaking-

Tuesday– Honey-doooos. Got some quality time in with my bride at the Home Depot. Installed new track lighting in the kitchen.

Wednesday– Planned on fishing with Tom Van Horn, got blown out. Went for a walk with Susan at the improperly named Black Hammock Wilderness Area. Posted a blog about it- https://www.spottedtail.com/blog/seminole-county-wilderness-areas-a-review/

Thursday– Planned on fishing with Rick DePaiva, got blown out. Worked on the van, getting it ready for the solar install.

Friday– Happy New Year! Too windy to fish, again!

Thank you for reading this New Year Report blog!

Life is great and I love life!

Every day is a blessing. Don’t waste it- Go fishing! or walk on a trail!
