I had my fishing day with my two daughters cancelled at the last minute today due to the rain, you see they are of the fair weather fishin type. Sooooooo, today I have to fish vicariously though all of you good folks that did make it out there. I am particularly looking for reports from those who fished on the Sandy today. Thanks in advance, I'll see you all out there soon.

Hey Oakie,
Nice to meet you, how do you know Jack?. I am close freinds with him and his family, I grew up with his wife and her family and ours are very close family friends, parents went to high school together. I typically get my reports from him but since they were on vacation the last two weeks I decided to leave him alone and let him enjoy it without any interruptions. Do you fish the Sandy much and what does your boat look like? I got a report today and it sounds like the pressure was lite on the lower drift and so was the catching. I will be out there pretty much every weekend starting mid April so look for a blue/silver FishRite ("FishRite" in big white letters on the side) and come by and say hello. Good luck fishing and I'll talk with you later.

Artwo,
Your post brought a smile/grins to my face. You know, I bet you and I have crossed paths i.e. drifts...lol on the Sandy before and didnt know it. For the last 4 years, I have been on the river in my aluminum Hyde drift boat, bugundy/silver in color. But the 15 years before that, I used wood drift boats.
Jack is a great guy, isnt he? I met him on the river about 20 years ago. At that time, I was on the bank and had a big chinook on when he and his clients came by. He was so nice in that he offered to pick me up from shore and helped me net that fish! We've been friends with him and his wife since then. I go as a client with him at least one a year just for grins/fun.
Another fisherman friend of mine, Dick, went to high school with Jack; played football together, and in fact Jack and Dick were roommates at one time [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] Gosh, dinner just got put on the table, gotta go, will email you soon!
