Brrrrr....

Anyone who doubts there's a global climate change need only step outside. It's July and it's like 60 degrees in Michigan. WTF?

And we've had two of the coldest, snowiest winters on record. So, the term "Global Warming" doesn't seem to apply. Though I have enjoyed some very fine skiing, both in Michigan and Utah!

Most of the hatches are delayed on Michigan's rivers. On my last trip to the Pere Marquette a couple weeks back I only had success with Sulfurs -- a hatch that should have been long since over. Yet the Hex is on schedule. Weird. And bugs know weather.

Bottom line is that it seems you're so much more aware of changes in climate when you spend a lot of your time outside. And, it's definitely been different.

Things will be quiet for a few days as I head North to enjoy some fishing, mountain biking, camping and relaxing. More to come from that trip soon! Get outside and enjoy the Holiday weekend!
