But I think I’ll take a couple days in April for trout. Seems like every time I turn around my co workers are asking for a day off and they’re always granted. To the point that we are constantly shorthanded. So why should I skimp on mine? Maybe a Friday and a Monday so I have a long weekend! Life is too short not to enjoy it When I lived in PA, I loved trout fishing in April and May. May is a beautiful time of the year there. An old man roaming the Rockies

I took today off and went striper fishing with some friends, off tomorrow to spend some time with my ailing Dad. Life is too short to work all the time. Eric Right on, Eric.I’m not saying we don’t need the money and we certainly aren’t “well off” but we keep our lives simple enough that when you need to take a break, it doesn’t break the bank

Put and take mostly but one section of the river is cold enough year round that they reproduce We fly fish for them

Maybe they would hire another person if you didn't sacrifice your time off for others. Last year I took 8 weeks off and wish I had a couple more! They survived without me.
