Cast My Troubles Away

Dear Reeling & Healing Midwest,

Thank you for such a nice gathering of fishing people and most helpful guides. Although I only felt a couple nibbles and didn’t hook one trout, it doesn’t matter to me. What a wonderful way to cast one’s troubles and worries aside, to totally relax and take in our beautiful state and its rivers. Thanks for all you do! Wishing you the best with all future retreats. I’ll be at another Reunion Retreat for sure. Fish On! Carol C, Big Rapids, MI

October 2007 Reunion Retreat Was Great!

Admin — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 03:13:49 +0000

The October Retreat was fantastic! A wonderful group of survivors and volunteers eager to fish the Pere Marquette in search of brown trout, steelhead and salmon. The weather was amazing – better than last year when I had on four layers of clothing. I left the mittens and ear muffs at the river lodge and was in the river, helping guide, taking photos and listening to everyone’s story.

October Retreat Is Almost Here!

Admin — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 02:41:15 +0000

Twenty-five participants and volunteers are scheduled to fish the famed waters of the Pere Marquette River this weekend in Branch, MI. We’ll be staying at a private river lodge high on a bluff over the river with a thirst to fish for steelhead, brown and rainbow trout. Rumor is a few salmon are still occupying the waters as well. Perhaps we’ll see a few in action.

Survivors from all over the State of Michigan will be in attendance. A few have fished in the fall, but for a majority of the attendees, this is a first-time experience.

The weather forecast is great for fishing – 60 degrees and partly cloudy with the chance of showers.

Keep an eye out for our recap and photos.

FISH ON!
