Granny won’t drive my stick shift 1991 Explorer so I punched out a lot of miles on this Wisconsin trip. 3,285 to be exact. Yesterday we left Iron River, WI at 5 AM sharp and 850 miles later we pulled into a campsite within view of Devils Tower in Wyoming. Two beers in my Yeti chair and I was out like a light. This is the gorgeous view we had when we woke up.
We only traveled about three hours today. That’s because tonight we are visiting my Baja pal Sammy Vigneri. Sam and his family live in Casper, WY. With only three hours to drive we had time for a stop. There’s a nice bass, walleye and pike lake and we wade fished the shoreline. It was a slow. We each caught a smallmouth and called it a day.
Before Covid all I did was hop on airplanes and fly for hours to fishing destinations. Being somewhat grounded for 14 months has reminded me how awesome it is to get behind the wheel and go. Though my plane tickets are piling up again, I’m not going to let these road trips slip away. This one was epic!
Don’t forget our yard sale will be May 15th. There will be all kinds of stuff from camping to fishing gear. I never sell stuff from companies I represent so don’t expect Winston’s or Simms waders or etc. but there’s some awesome stuff. If you’d like a list of rods or reels just Contact Me and I’ll email it to you. And don’t procrastinate, I mentioned this last month and a ton of stuff went fast!
