The midges that I tied up the other night proved to be effective on
Saturday afternoon. Despite the snow and cold I took a trek out to my
favorite small stream to test out the new hip pack (thanks Sharon) and
to give the midges a go. Both worked to perfection. If the cold has
cooped you up too long and you have a case of the Shack Nasties (borrowed from Gierach), go out
and fish a little, it will rejuvenate you!
