This vary morning I took off and sherked my sleep, and my work to do something  love to do. I went out in the bigwoods with my best friend in the whole world and did some back country trout fishing. The usual brook wading and casting kind of fishing a County boy loves. Over growth and tangles all part of the game. Wary waders avoiding the Moose holes so deep you could lose your past in them.

Caution reining supreme, and the distant rise of a trout meaningless, for it was too far out to get at. In the end he caught two, lost one. I fortunately was  blessed with another gift from the experience. This story I am telling you. To my chagrin not a trout was to be had. But it was beautiful morning and enjoyed the smell of bugdope and hearing singing robins. 

A few worms were killed today, but they were necessary sacrfices to the stream . The trip was short but it will live forever in my memory. Thank You Lord for my life and the breath you gave it. The Glory is yours and yours alone, Amen

June 30th will mark the 2nd annual Youth Fishing Derby sponsored by Military Street Baptist Church and it’s Christian Sportsman’s Fellowship chapter here in Houlton , Maine. The MSBC-Christain Sportsman are hosting an open trout derby for the youth of the area at their stocked pond. All kids 1 to 14 are welcome, and must bring a parent or guardian. There will be great prizes, plenty of trout, and BBQ after it’s all over. I look forward to seeing you there.

This marks a new beginning here at NWW or if you prefer Northwoods Wanderer. My name is Brent Reece and I am currently also blogging over Aroostook Flyers and Tyers. This Blog will be an open house of information and education on all things about the Northwoods. I will feature articles on all of the normal outdoor topics as listed in the categories list. My specific goal here is to open doors and shed more light on my beloved Aroostook.

There are so many fantastic things to do here and for me to say about her. That I will need more time to tell it all. Hence the Blog…… and now I am off to gather some more details for you on a great adventure we will share.  Keep watching.. I’m only just beginning.
