In the arid plains between the mountains is a stream that connects two reservoirs. A dream stream, The Dream Stream. We hired a guide from the Tumbling Trout in Lake George to take us there and show us the ropes. It was my first time fishing in the mountain west and I learned a ton from Tad. In September, the hopper-dropper was the hot rig. Or so we were told. The Dream Stream is by no means a secret.

Fishing the Dream Stream
Eleven Mile Canyon, Colorado
Last September my father-in-law and I packed out bags full of camping gear and flew out to Colorado for a few days of fishing in the eleven-mile canyon area. I haven't spent much time in the Denver area before our Red Rocks trip earlier in the year. I was keen to explore the area just south west of the metro.

Minnesota trout fishing
Spring was not is the air this week but it was here none the less. Minnesota's torut fishing season opend up the day before Easter signaling the official start of the saeson. Every year my father-in-law and his buddies spend the week after opener in southe east Minnesota. I try to join them when I can.
I had dreams of taking the motorcycle down there this year but high winds, rain, and cold tempratures ment it would stay safley tucked in at home. We had high tempreatures in the 30s but the sun came out to visit us on Tuesday. Despite recent rain, streams were low and mostly clear.

Maine - the Harpswells
August 2021 was a busy month in the best way. For the past five or six years Mrs. North and I have been running away to the Portland Maine area. This year was even more special because Jr. North would be joining us for the first time.
Maine is full of nooks and places to explore. Just north of Portland are the White Mountains. One of these years I'll have to fly out early and explore in interior on two wheels, you can get a direct flight from MSP to Portland if you're interested.
