RE: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Spread them out or back-to-back...

Deffinitely two different days 3 days apart: like Mon-Thur, Tue-Fri.  After getting nothing but blown around three years in a row, we bit the bullet, booked two days 3 days apart and have been very pleased with the results.  The guide has put this suggestion on his web site, I notice.  He was a bit more relaxed knowing that one of the two days was bound to be decent, and the passage of time meant that we could fish different waters in the different conditions.  It also gave a great structure to the rest of the visit in that there was room for everything anyone wanted to do. 

Hope it works for you!

Subject: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Spread them out or back-to-back...

Long time listener...first time caller is I believe how the saying goes.  One of my resolutions for the New Year is to try and become a more active member of the TPFR community instead of just a consumer.  So before I start my first post I'd like to thank everyone involved on the forum for the limitless amounts of information and knowledge being shared.  It's pretty great to spend a few minutes searching the forum to find tons of information on specific places to fish, technique, etc., etc. and very motivating to see so many active fly anglers in the area.  So thank you all!

Now, onto my first post.  I'm planning a week-long trip to Stuart, FL for my birthday at the end of May to see some family.  I had actually arranged for a trip with a guide last summer when I was down but my day on the water was cancelled due to the weather.  The cancellation left me with a partial credit for one day on the water and as a b-day present this year my girlfriend is going to pay for second…lucky me!  However, having never been out with a guide before for more than one day at a time, and with the goal of trying to minimize any weather related incidents, I'm torn between booking the two days back to back or spreading them out over the course of the week.   I talked to the guide and he didn't really seem to have a strong opinion one way or the other.  So I thought I'd pose the question to all of you before booking my second day.  Back to back or spread them out, what do you all think? 

Thanks in advance.

Brian
