Hey CC. I count 22 names on the list and yourself makes 23, that's not such a "little outing." I can't say I've ever fished with more than 6 people I knew.
Thanks to Mike for the prizes. It should make things more interesting on already great week end. As for suggestions as to where they should go I will try to think of some ideas after dinner tonight. The obvious occur biggest and most fish. Smallest and least fish. Miss or Mr Congeniality .
Not sure I want to see any bikini contests though, actually I'm sure of that so let's leave that one out. Ok

Alfie.

[ALN]

Lol I would love to be paired with someone I'll be bringing a +1 to learn about fishing in the rivers too but I dunno if she's gunna fish much loll

Question is...are YOU going to fish much....

[Rainbow]

Make yourself busy enough with other things and you'll never learn the sport

[NADO]

Thats alot of prizes! Maybe have to group a few up for biggest fish. Maybe biggest fish for both chinook and steelhead. It would have to be an honour system though cuz im sure people will be venturing off to find open water and coming back to the cemetery hole to hang out. Maybe biggest fish on the fly too. Maybe just a quick length measurement to make sure fish aren't harmed for the competition, I would say no pics necessary or anything.

Proposed Categories:

- Biggest Fish - Gets first pick for all the prizes
- Second Biggest fish - Second Pick
- Third Biggest fish - Third Pick
- biggest first steelhead for the noobs - Fourth Pick
- second biggest first steelhead for the noobs - Fifth Pick
- Smallest fish - Sixth Pick

Will mentor you in the art of roe harvesting. The old "slash n dash"

As for pairing up, I'm up for the idea of that especially with the people who aren't very familiar with the river.

Agreed. I was there last week and some of the areas were littered with used coffee cups, dead line, beer cans/bottles etc.
