Our Next Trip

We live in a country that has almost infinite smallmouth possibilities, so we are always scheming the next destination. Now that we are retired, we have the time, but we need to be smart about the financials. We have an array of contingency plans ready or under development for our next adventure. Any suggestions for the states we have not fished are welcome. With that in mind, we will lay out our next three proposed trips. These may or may not work out the way we plan, but it gives us a chance to see the logistics. Hey, it's something to get us through the cold winter nights. |

Trip #1 The problem fishing The West is that there is not a lot of water. Driving through Florida, you can't go 10 miles without seeing lakes and ponds of all types. In The West, you can drive hours and not see any kind of fishable water. That being said, combining Colorado and Wyoming to fish The Laramie River and then over to Utah / Idaho to fish Bear Lake could be an option. As always, we would appreciate your thoughts. |

Trip #2 A combined trip through Minnesota, North and South Dakota would be a prime smallie destination. Hauling the kayaks across the country would be arduous but worthwhile. It looks like Lake Traverse straddles the border of Minnestoa and South Dakota. Might have to do some research on that. We have not made contact with any local guides, but are leaning toward... If you have fished this area, we would appreciate your thoughts. |

Trip #3 This one falls more into the long range planning category. We have been to these states, but have never had the opportunity to fish them. Not sure if they even have smallies out here. We may have to go offshore. Though the idea of targeting sturgeonis intriguing. As always, we would appreciate your thoughts. |
