so....i was curious as to what do all you spey junkies do for a living?
or if your in school then what are you studying?

I was self employed for 15 years as a farrier. Now working as a CPD tech in a hospital and 2 more semesters I will have my RN. Will most likely be working in the O.R. of the hospital.
Fishing keeps me sane.

I take junk and make it into working machines...that would be a millwright for 31 years...that really makes me about 217 years old! 15 more to go and I will not be one of those guys sitting around with nothing to do in his retirement! I have fairly warned the fish!

Things are not really so bad but when you do something you enjoyed as a hobby for work it kinda ruins it. Im the lead mechanic and nightshift chargehand which gives me a shop vehicle for myself. Saves on fuel costs, which is a big deal nowaday

Specifically Pinot noir grapes and Willamette valley Pinot noir. I've been managing a small winery for the last six years. I enjoy what I do but our harvest season and busiest time of the year is late September through November which makes finding a day on the river difficult......

To be a millionaire in this business you have to start with 2 million-good luck to you and hopefully you will become a sponsor and we can buy more stuff we don't need.

[aaron s.]

Thanks, and we're already a sponsor, that million bucks didn't show up today oddly enough
