The Weekend Wade

They call it the Bahamas of the midwest and it will test your sight casting capabilities. I dont know the exact date that Beaver Island got on my radar as a fisherman.

I'm wondering, What's it to ya? I'm wondering what this blog is to me. Truthfully I don't know. I need to pick a direction and continue that way. Often I compare my blog to others, wonder how they get traffic and enjoy there posts. I continue to dwell on what it takes to have a good blog. In the future I plan on adding more value and interest to my post. In all I need to focus on fishing and let the other stuff come to me, post what it is I enjoy and that is fly fishing, be engaged in the outdoors and this passion of mine. To the point, I just need to be The Weekend Wade and follow my creativity, that is what I am here for and intend to stay in that place. To me The Weekend Wade is the pursuit of my interest and a collection of thoughts, with a little information and comedy inside. Create and enjoy. Follow along. The Weekend Wade.
