Metolius River Rendevous Roster (goin' or not)

[Gettin' Birdy]

Thought we'd get the official count (roster) as to who's going to attend (Feb. 23-26). I think this is going to be a great trip. All we need is a little cooperation from Mother Nature!

[3riversBob]

I'm in!

Bob

[Ryan Pultz]

I am going to try my schedule is what is hendering it right not but i am working on it. rp

[Patrick L]

[gottafish]

My wife is undergoing major surgery and will be OOC for a long time. Sucks One of these days god willing I'll make one of these trip. just not this one

[EugeneFisher]

I'm in, assuming the pass is clear. My truck is allergic to the snow.

[mpruet]

I am so wanting to go, but the buddy who I was going to stay with is not able to attend.

I am going to look into a cabin and if the pass is clear, I will definitely be heading over.

[mpruet]

Got a cabin for the 23rd and 24th.

As of right now, I am going. Could change if the road conditions are not with me.

[Tick Camper]

I can't make it, maybe next time.

[**busyfishin**]

I wish, I have to work right through that weekend. :sick:

[PullShootExplode]

Ditto with busy... :sick:

[FallRiverGuy]

At this time I am planning to come fish Saturday.

[overfitty]

I'm planning on Friday, Sat and Sunday, weather depending...truck&camperin' it and looking forward!!

[AndyK]

I'm coming up with Frankenfish on Thursday and leaving Saturday. Frankenfish is driving, so our arrival will depend on how many deer he hits/avoids!

[PittsburghD]

I am checking in. I am not sure when I can go, but I am going to say at least Thursday or Friday at this point. I need a break. These Steelers games are wearing me out.

--D

[frankenfish]

Coming down on Thursday and fishing till Sunday

[frankenfish]

Coming on Thursday and leaving when Andy wants to go home since we are coming together.

[Abalone]

Please post the dates at the top of this thread ! I assume you are talking about Feb. 23-24th ????


If I am not working that weekend I would love to go....I need the actual dates..and other pertinent information.

[Steve L.]

If the work schedule permits I'll be there with all my gear, truck and camper.

[Stew]

Probably won't make it :shrug:

[3riversBob]

Plan to leave on Friday morning by 9:00 and should be there by noon. Leaving sometime on Sunday.

Bob

[mandinga]

should we post pictures of ourselves...so we know who were looking for?

[3riversBob]

Do we really want to scare each other off? :tongue:

Bob

ps......I'll have an ifish sticker on my back window of my Ford Escape. Look for a old, short, fat, bald guy.

[mandinga]

Last time I tried to find you guys I searched and searched...saw many faces and never found y'all.




I just found out that they do not allow lead, or bb's at all to fish for the bulls...therefore the flies have got to be super duper heavy.
later
isaac

If you guys need to find me just look for the strapping young lad :grin: :jester:

[PittsburghD]

Pick a camp spot or day spot and pitch a flag for the group. I've got the red jeep cherokee with stuff stacked all over it and a black lab trailing behind on a leash. Oh yeah, and a 400 zillion foot banner behind it celebrating the Steelers 2006 Superbowl Championship!

Sorry, I know I'm hopeless.


--D


Anyway, you can trade in your wedding ring for a great bull fly (the jointed bunny leach) at the store in Camp Sherman. It will get down pretty quickly in semi-moving water.

[finnedwonder]

im still in just havent been on in a while. I can still bring some firewood!

[3riversBob]

Lots of firewood is a good thing. The more the better. I think it's gonna be realllllllllll cold.

Bob

[mandinga]

I am still planning on going...I did see a report that the river was VERY high, but fishable.

[frankenfish]

I was going to post a pic but then I realized that I know what I look like! We should meet at the store, or leave messages at the store so we know where to find each other. Avalanche beacons would also work!

[frankenfish]

PS. I'm short, so look for Andy, When you see him look down. That's me.

[AndyK]

PS. I'm short, so look for Andy, When you see him look down. That's me.



You'll recognize Frank; he does commercials for Travelocity (you know, the Gnome!) :jester:.

[Patrick L]

So are we meeting at Allen Springs campground? Is there a group campground?

[3riversBob]

Allen Springs is my understanding. Correct me someone if that is wrong.

Bob

[PittsburghD]

I, unfortunately need to back out. This is my second upset but family medical issue s take a front seat and I need to hang close to home. I am looking forward to making up to each and every one of you for my flakiness. The Saturday morning "Crooked River D's Rocky Mountain Cajun Chicken Breakfast Burritos" are 100% on me for the Spring or Summer gathering. It will definately be worth your trip.

Muchos blessings and tacos burritos!

[frankenfish]

Andy,

The Knome is taller if you count the hat. I'm his brother.

Frank

[Stew]

Andy,

Frank


How is your taller brother at rowing a pontoon? :laugh:

[EugeneFisher]

I hate to say it, but I wont be attending the gathering. I was really hoping to make it out, but with a new puppy running around, it's hard enough to get away for a single day to fish!

[3riversBob]

I'm still going! Who else?

Bob

[overfitty]

I'm still in...looking forward to learning new stuff from you guys!!

[Patrick L]

Of coarse I'm in. I can't wait.

[mpruet]

I don't think that I will be attending.

With the vacations that I am planning for this Spring and Summer, I can't really afford to take any extra time off of work.

Hope you guys have a great time.

[mandinga]

I'm still 90%!

[PittsburghD]

I am going to try and make a day if possible on Thursday or Friday. I will check in next week for locale and who is where.


---D


Oh yeah, how bout them Steelers!


--Sorry, I need therapy.

[3riversBob]

I'll be at Allen Springs campground by noon on Friday. I'll to make a ifish sign to hang up.

Bob

[gogrizgo]

I plan on making a trip out there in the next few months. Got a Streamer pattern you wouldn't leave home without?

[Navigator]

I am still planning on going.

Will arrive Thursday afternoon (2/23) - hopefully before dark and plan to fish all day Friday and head home Friday night.

I am going to bring a trout rod and a steelhead rod for Bull Trout. I have never got into a Bull Trout - so - if someone is a teach'n, I will be a'learn'n. (Same could be said with fish'n BWO's)

[3riversBob]

Wow! A week and a half until the trip and the weather is getting pretty interesting. It could be an arctic fishing trip. Bring lots of WARM stuff. Can't wait! It's like being on Survivor with out the TV cameras. :grin:

Bob

[Piscatus]

FYI all: This is the same weekend as the Becoming an Oregon outdoors Woman (BOW, put on by ODFW) classes at Suttle Lake. My fiancee :hearton: is registered for the flyfishing class - GET THIS - they (BOW participants) get to fish the settling pond at Wizard Falls Fish Hatchery (catch and release, of course). Have you seen the size of those brooders? :shocked: They are HUGE!

These 12 women and the free fish weekend kids (in June) are the only ones all year that get to fish that water - lucky! So if you want to see some happy faces, go to the pond 8:00a - 11:30a,1:30p - 5:00p on Sat 2/25.

Needless to say, I will be the guy providing moral support and handing a landing net to the cute red head. :passout:
