2010 Review - The Evolution

[laszlo]

The year started off with a bang! My wife Anna and I had our first baby on Jan. 12th.

They are a constant reminder of why life is amazing.

 

 

 

Yes, the addition of Eliana meant less angling for me but I still managed to get out to satisfy the itch.

In years past Bass and Pike occupied most of my days but this year I chose to mix it up to target a larger

variety of species.

 

 

March - May

June - Sept

 

In July, I purchased my first fly rod/reel combo. It's too bad I couldn't find the time to use it

in prime resident trout streams. To fill the void, I put it to use in the not so nice river right behind

my place to target Carp. Before I got the fly set up, I was able to take the light action spinning gear

to some nice water and connected with a few smaller fish.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In August, Highdrifter and myself headed up to Nipissing to fish in extremely difficult conditions.

We did manage a couple though...

 

 

 

 

 

Then there was the fall...What an awesome couple months it was.

 

My buddy Dan's sweet Brown! Dan, you are a great angler and an even better friend and mentor.

 

 

 

Another solid fishing partner.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now on to playing some basketball for a couple months to get this butt in shape.

 

Thanks for taking the time.

All the best during the holidays and in 2011!

Merry Christmas to you too buddy.

I'm really happy we made that early morning mission to Loyalist in fall of 09.

It was a conduit to many more adventures with a lot more to come.
