Taking an interesting vacation this summer
I normally don't take summer vacations because my entire summer is a vacation . But this summer I will do something that I have wanted to do for the last decade and finally get a chance. I tried a few times before but the stars never aligned for things to work out with schedules and availability. I will be spending a week on Tuckernuck Island (managed to rent one of the houses there) I plan to take my boat over (with a kayak) and moor inside the cove and stay at the cool house on the island. I really want to do some flats fly rod and ultra light sight casting both from the shore and drifting along in a kayak, then grill up my fresh caught meals at sunset with a nice glass of wine as I take in some amazing solitude. I may run offshore for a day or two or even take the wife to a fancy dinner on ACK for a night just to break things up but it should be fun no matter what. It really is not that much different my my normal summer but this is a very cool little island. (I have fished around it often by boat but never set foot on it) I plan to take a lot of photos. It's not very far away but I am really looking forward to it.
It is funny I mentioned it to a some mainland friends and their response was...Why would you want to go there? What is there to do? When I mentioned there was no electrical power and very spotty cell service their eyes rolled. Maybe it is me... I told them that is the very reason I want to go there, I wish I could spend the entire summer there. Maybe someday...
I know a couple of you guys have gone there in the past. Maybe you can give me some tips.
