Dear Ifish Gang,
I have some ifishstock updates.
BIGSTEW is interested in doing a tackle swap.
If you want to help organize this, and have ideas, please contact BIGSTEW on the board. You can find his address there, if you want to help organize or plan this event at the ifishstock party.
I rented a porta potty. There will be a donation 'can' of sorts to help pay for this. I hate to be crude, but I can't help but advertise this "Pay to Pee Plea". Tee hee! I'm SORRY, OK?!? [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
Seems to be some misunderstanding about how to eat at the ifish bbq.
It is a "bring your own meat" bbq, although I will have hotdogs here for those who forget, or those with little ones, that don't want seafood delicacies.
Salads, casseroles, public sharing foods are welcome.
We will supply fresh corn on the cob from Bill's duck lake, and pop also.
Bait of Eggs... Roy, will be bringing his big BBQ. I think that will cover that need, with the small one we have to back us up.
I will have a steamer for anyone who brings oysters, or you can throw them on the bbq too!
You can clean your fish here, although I would appreciate it if you brought some way to haul out the trimmings.
We will have a crab cooker available and a corn cooker. Thank you to Marie at Tillamook Bait for loaning us her crab cooker!
We will have a big garbage can for garbage, and one for recycling pop cans. Please read the garbage can signs to make sure to put things in the appropriate can.
There is still room at the Shilo, I believe, and you can find their number for the TIllamook Location by going to
http://www.shiloinns.com .
We still have camping available here, but know that we cannot offer showers to all who camp here.
It is unimproved camping at it's finest. We will do all we can to make your stay comfortable, and we welcome you!
When you park, you will see small trees planted in the field. Please be careful not to mow these over. We will have ribbons tied on them so you can better see them.
As you proceed down the driveway, please be aware that the cats like to hang out there and keep watch!
Thank you to GI Joes, for sending us some goodies to give away. We were also gifted by companies such as Leathermen, Tackle4less.com, Holdzit Tools, First Cast Jigs, Silent Approach Jigs, and Daichi and Vision Hooks
Please support these businesses by visiting their site and purchasing their items.
If anyone is coming from Warrenton on Friday or Saturday, please contact me. I need to pick something up at Costco in Warrenton, and it would save me a whole trip if you are coming from that direction.
If anyone has extra folding chairs, or any kind of lawn chairs or camp chairs, please bring them!
There will be signs from Alderbrook road to our place at milepost three on Kilchis River Road.
SImply follow the signs from Tillamook or Bay City from the highway toward Kilchis River Park.
There are open seats listed on the trip trader on the board for those who need boat seats. First come first serve. If you have an open seat, please list it as you please.
The tides are not the best this weekend for clamming or for fishing, but we are trying to keep our hopes up.
Best chance is on the incoming. Low tide at the beach, Saturday morning is at 10:18 AM. Some people will be driving to the Nehalem, as the fishing there is pretty good. Tillamook Bay has reported fish as far up as Memaloose.
If you have any specific questions, either write to me, or post it on the board.
Thanks much, and I'm looking forward to seeing you all!
