ok so lets toss around some dates here is my two cents

2nd weekend in October
west trib-
day trip--

 

[remyboy1]

mad..lets make a cutoff date for the list of this Friday of who wasn't to come--them move this convo with those people to PM so we can discuss finer details in private.good idea?

 

[remyboy1]

that would be oct 11th weekend I believe--gotta be on a Saturday so we can sleep sunday...

 

[Madriverfisher]

I might give it another week but ya there has to be a cutoff date I will think about that

 

[remyboy1]

good idea. by a certain date you will have a list of people to PM and we ca get this thing running-I see rob reading this thread--maybe wilsons ca get in their with a few goodies---join us on the waterat minimum get the name out there.,,,maybe a few hats..marketing at its finest..Rob?

As for location what about the section of the Grand where the Spey Clave is slated for? I do not know the section but assume it will be well suited for a larger group as well as spey casting.

I've got a couple rivers in mind but I will put it out there when I get a soils number of people interested I won't put where it will end up happening in an open thread as not to name rivers and remy Id never ask rob or Wilson's so sponsor this. This is just a bunch of people getting out. Also I was reading there log yesterday witch is not a infrequent thing you all should read it but they have alot of events coming up getting people ready for steelhead and guided trips they stay at a b&b with the guide sounds like it would be a blast just for me now it would break my bank lol

 

[Madriverfisher]

I will have a extra spey rod with me to so any one who attends this outting can give it a try I am by no means an expert but can show. You the basics

 

[flyXing]

definitely a beginner here but would love to tag along to learn a few things from the more experienced folk!

going to have to pick a date based on when the run starts.....no sense showing up to a river that has no steel in it

can't do saturdays,so that puts me out right away

 

[BASSMASTER19]

I'm in but it's gotta be a weekend if that's possible

 

[Madriverfisher]

Jmatt will talk a Sunday could work I'm still looking for interest but ya some time in October for sure

 

[remyboy1]

I will go anytime and I will also offer my spey rod for people that wanna fire a fly out of a cannon .....

 

[rusty420]

Oh I suppose I could grace you gents with my presence. Let me know dates.

 

[jlisk]

I am in, I think if it was planned like last years outing over a few days it gives more people options of meeting up. Not everyone is a 9-5 sissy...

 

[NADO]

im in too if I can make the date. Maybe try some of the tricks I learned for Atlantics on the east coast to snag into my first great lakes steelhead on the fly.

 

[BASSMASTER19]
