A good day on the water with George Amidon testing some of my builds

CTS 9’ 12 wt Revo is heading to Florida to battle Tarpon and Cobia.
Alps hardware and a custom grip complete the setup.
I expect some action photos Matt!

Lunch with a couple of fishing friends Tom Nault and Tom Lee. Grilled Chicken with prosciutto, mozzarella and roasted red peppers on garlic ciabatta bread drizzled with imported olive oil.

A few Brook Trout today but today’s highlight is going to be the hot sausage, peppers and onions.
I know you can smell it just by looking at the picture.

Float trip is planned for in the morning .

No Salmon today but a few Brook Trout .
Plenty of shrimp though, enough for me to make Shrimp Scampi for dinner

Anyone else have over easy eggs topped with salsa before hitting the river?

A couple of guys who almost look like they know what they’re doing.

Spending a few days in Pennsylvania.
