Doesn't look like anyone has started this thread this year yet so here goes.....23 days for me! It's been such a long, dreary winter, looking forward to my week off at camp.
38 days, just pulled the boat out of storage. Waiting on a nice day when i'm off work to reorganize the tackle and get the boat ready for the trip.
My June trip is off this year due to a European Cruise but my clock shows 129 days to my September 1, 2019 Kipawa Trip
Good luck to all of the Spring trippers
113 days until trip departure day. In the meantime, I hope to read lots of trip reports from all the groups going earlier. Tight lines everyone!

108 long days....can't wait!

And Nort'...they're all long days...no matter how many there are... ;D
Between now and the late-May trip I think I have at least 2-3 business trips...have no idea when I'm going to have time to "get ready". Maybe the night before we leave. :o
81 more days until TBL Outpost! Can't wait.

I am sooo looking forward to getting back to Kipawa. Close your eyes for a moment, listen to the water lapping against the boat, warm breeze blowing through my thinning grey hair and a nibble on my line. Rinse and repeat. ;D Oh yea, and a swig of cold beer as I wonder what it would be like to retire.
64...
2 days for me...
Will be staying at Taggart Bay Lodge for the week. Can't wait to be on the boat, line in the water, beer in hand and enjoying the peacefulness of the water!

I resemble this remark. Cannot wait!
Yep, but my number is a couple less than yours - you're flying and I'm driving.
I need a head start ;D .
Also; I am considering moving my departure up a day.
Tomorrow morning as soon as I can get kids out of bed. Can't wait.

Dang Oz...... Enjoy your trip, I’m looking forward to your trip report. :D
Thanks, I'll let you all know how it goes. With T-bone being such an artist at them I may just send my rough cuts and pay him to fine tune it.
ONE MORE SLEEP!!!!!! TODAY IS DRAGGING!
GregL and Ozzy...you're killin' me!!! AHHHHHH!!! Try not to tear Alwaki to the ground while you're there and leave some fish for me and Hodgey...
And no worries Ozzy...no charge on the final edit...I owe you big for giving Mattie the thrill of his fishing life last year!!!! ;D
I'm sure Greg and I will leave lots of fish for you and Hodgey. I just can't believe the last day before my holidays is lasting this long, seems like 29 hr day.

Safe travels
@Greg , can’t wait for your trip report.
Countdown = Zero
Leaving in 2 days. I'll be up there from July 28 to Aug 4, 2019. (Sunday to Sunday)
Tight lines !!!
;D
4 days, 7 hours and 6 minutes!
This trip is much anticipated for different reasons than my July trip. July is a all boys trip, with lots of testosterone flowing as well as beer. This September trip, is all about chilling with the wife, wine and lots of relaxing. Fishing will still be a priority, but at a more relaxing pace. I’m just glad that my wife has found Kipawa as alluring as I and willing to use her precious vacation time to be there with me.
She unfortunately spent 20 years in the same job, giving it all she had, only to be just another number during and upheaval of restructuring. The good news is she has landed on her feet and now moving in a better work direction and just days away from a much needed vacation! Alwaki, here we come.
