floater/flyrodder got gear food/gas/beer $$$ to share. need n/w area intro trip.

ok so let me get this straight. fly into seatac, rent the car, drive to fluffy's fly emporium for regs, lic. terminal stuff, hottt tips and long winded directions, then off to albertsons to fill the cooler and check the regs and map. pick a likely destination for a 2 day shakedown. drive to the nearby motel 6,8,4,7 or koa. check in and then drive to the local public access and hustle down the bank. Or browse the local phonebook and or pub gathering guide referrals and numbers. drive to meet and pay the guide at the put-in possibly duplicating this routine for day 2 do you suppose on my planeride home i can look back with sore arms to say thanks it was good, see you soon.
or just think about next summer in alaska because the only thing this place did for me was empty the wallet. replies?

so exactly what is it you want or expect. a warm body to fish with? directions and a map? a list of good guides?
