One Thousandth

On the way to work this morning i recalled that i’m getting close to my 5 year anniversary which means I’ve likely at/exceeded my 1,000th trip on the Croix/Sippi.
Fun to reflect on all the things I’ve seen and learned in the past 5 years.
If I’ve learned one thing about myself and the rivers over the years, it is that i prefer October through March!

Here’s to a few more!

Thanks IDO for helping me greatly on the river!

Congratulations on the milestone and congrats at catching such large fish right in our backyard so to speak. I have had to travel to Canada to catch fish like that. Nice job

Congratulations, what a resource to have so close. Thanks for sharing your journey. Here is to more!

And kudos to you to for returning the favor here.

A lot of information you have posted here is high level stuff, but with 1,000+ trips of experience under your belt…your information was not just what you read on the internet.

Keep the good stuff coming…

Thank you for sharing all that you have learned and congratulations on making it to 1,000th trip in 5 years. I wish I could get out like that. I have to wonder, how many hours are on your electronics?

Quite the milestone. Thanks for sharing your successes along the way. Much learned on our end as well.

Might be bad luck not showing the mighty vessel that has floated ya along the way?

Out of curiosity, how do you have the time to get out an average of four days per week, every week of the year? I don’t recall you noting that you’re a guide.

Boats pretty slimy
