It's all about the night bite. I was perfectly happy letting them do it all by themselves this trip. The fishing bug is a delicate thing. If you push it too hard the kids will hate it, but letting them discover the joys on their own just might create another addict. #flyfishing #fishingbc #gofishbc #getoutside #fishing #trout #troutbum #rainbowtrout

I booked this week off almost four months ago, so why do I have so much to do? In classic procrastinating fashion I left it all til the last few days before departure. Daphne the 1972 Boler trailer has a laundry list of upgrades to do, but every spring the turn signals, brake lights or running lights all take their turns to conspire against me. What I thought would be a routine loose wire or bulb turned into a two day ordeal. Through process of elimation, I worked my way up the trailer only to discover it was the Jeep's fault. After an unusual snowy winter, all of the salt destroyed my factory wiring harness. I spliced in a simple 4 way plug and called it a day, I have reservations at the lake for tomorrow!

Good morning to you! The best way to start a week of holidays is a wake and bake with some Seedsman's Haze. "Lady Magma" from @puffcanada is the first present my wife ever bought me over 15 years ago. Thick ass glass never goes out of style.
