OUTDOOR LIFE

JakeTulane · 03-29-2010, 04:43 PM

I too am a huge fan of the outdoors. I camp (My family calls Me the Camping King).. to backpacking (I did a backwoods backpacking hike at Yellowstone).. I fish.. freshwater and learned how to fly rod as well. I have a serious camping and fishing bug going on too. I would have to say the camping I have enjoyed the most has been the total roughing it...such as you would do on Federal owned land. Where you can pitch a tent anywhere you want.. and you pack in and pack out (leave no trace).

As I mentioned in the fishing thread - our season opens this Thursday and I already have plans to drop a line that evening if I am not too tired from work. If so, I will definately go this weekend.

Mmm, fresh fish cooked over charcoal, grilled acorn squash and corn, and a beer that's been chilling in the cooler all day! Simple and so good!

Good Morning mountain. One has to love a good sunset. It is cool here today.. however, we are supposed to be back in the 70 degree range by tomorrow.. just in time for opening day. Although I do not mind the cooler temps (easier to sleep in)... just can not deal with the bitter cold.

Hope you have a peaceful and productive day.

I like to wrap fish in banana leaves and grill or steam. Especially trout. Squeeze a little key lime, add some shallots, little spice and some pineapple sage leaves. Of course my banana tree got really zapped this past winter and I have to wait for it to come back around.

I agree mountain.. we are supposed to have temps in the 70's starting this Thursday.. it is seriously going to make Me want to get out My gear and get to camping and fishing. I have all My fishing rods out here in the livingroom now and will be going over them all to make sure the lines are good, etc. That is just going to make the "fever" worse.

Of course, I have to be responsible and work.
