I highly recommend time at the river with your closest friends, falling a bit behind on sleep, and unplugging for a bit. We did just that this past weekend in a nice cabin just a short walk from the water.
While I didn't get any smallmouth to bite, I still got my first catch on the books - several lovely bluegill in the dim hours of dawn and dusk.
Meals were top notch, especially the campfire s'mores. Wholesome.
