Somebody ought to start thinking about a river/run retirement home franchise. There should be big money in it by 2030. Think of it, a big lodge type facility, overlooking a northwest river with wheelchair and walker access to great fishing spots. Biggest "way it used to be" liar contest right after the evening meal in the "trophy room". Favorite oldies and latest fishing movies, videos and DVD's twice a week. Fly tying classes with full face magnafiers, everything tied up on size 6-0 hooks! "Improve your spoon eating" classes. How to get the best results using a shriveled pink worm.
Activities and contest's like who can get into their waders the fastest, or put a rod, reel, line and terminal set-up together the quickest and actually have it work!
Visit's from the 2002 "Women in Waders" calendar models signing autographs of their original photos!
Tour bus trips to the outdoor shows.
There could be a whole chain of these places on west and east coast rivers, so you could transfer around and try different locations, whenever a bed suddenly became available!
The motto could be "Old fishermen never die, they just smell that way!"
