One Long Island Spot Open – March 18-25

The Long Island trip has one spot open now. We were full, and now we are not and we are looking for one fun soul to join our merry group.

This is where we'll be going... looks kind of nice.

This is where we’ll be going… looks kind of nice.

Price is $1,995, which is pretty hard to beat for a week of guided fly fishing. We have a good group going already and hope we can fill that last slot with someone who will appreciate the trip.

Get in touch at bjorn@anglingdestinations dot com if you are interested.

The reason we have a slot open hits way too close to home. My dad won’t be joining us in Long Island so he can spend time with my mom who just got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer is almost never discovered early and by the time it is found it is almost always far too late in the game to mount a defense. So it is with my mom, who agreed to marry my dad 47 years ago today.

It is a very sobering thing. This is stage four. There is no surgery. There is no chemo.

I’ve never felt so grown up as I have these past few days, realizing I’ll lose my mother soon.

I’ll be needing a little time on the flats soon, for sure.
