f4 boundries

[Gizmo Man]

I posted this on PP in response to some questions being raised. If you want to know the questions asked go to PP.

To Everyone: Each of the previous flotillas was held on a specific river and a social event was held afterwards for bragging rights.

This event is the same way. I don't care where you fish in the Columbia as long as it is the Columbia below Bonneville. (Now the folks who want to fish at the wind will be upset.)We said the St. Helens area originally recognizing this opens up many areas accessable from Wa and Or boat ramps. We have not put a boundry assuming there was enough water to fish in and around St. Helens. If you want to fish Washougal or Longview go for it or some other place in the Columbia.

Let's not make this event complicated. Go fish for a springer in the columbia river, and if you want to weigh it in, be at sand island at 3:30. That's it...lets all have fun. :smile:

And sorry about the honor system comments, however, the point is that this is for those of us who want to have fun and we don't need folks showing up with fish that were caught before the event and in some contests, the fish have been stuff with lead. (just ask the sponsors of some of the recent sturgeon derbys what they have been through.)

If anyone disagrees with the above or feels that I am not responsive let me know here in this post...its not too late for you to take over. (You can't believe some of the emails I have gotten from folks wanting secret spots so they can have a leg up and beat those orgonians, or wanting rules or just plain worring about things in general.)

If you like what I have been doing so far, I would like to hear that too.

Giz...

Gizmo...I love ya man!!! People... it is only springer fishing. It ain't like steelhead fishin' which takes some skill. Just throw a sardine wrapped K15 kwikfish out in 20 feet or less of water, go to sleep and wait for the bell on your rod to wake you. Like watchin' paint dry.

Oh Giz, you are forgiven for being such a grumpy old elf. We understand your discomfort at this time of the month. [img]graemlins/eek13.gif[/img] :grin:

Spooled, bring your water colors Golden BOY. But if you leave them home I'll hand a fish off to ya. :grin: It will make all the other crackers jealous.

I'm getting caught up...F4 sounds like some fun...can someone tell me the date and specifically which "Sand Island"?

Thanks!

OK Giz How many rocks can we have in the boat for throwing and can you please tell us the length limit on rods. [img]graemlins/stupid.gif[/img]

Rauly,
I'll be throwing Bananas again so you'd better be good with the rocks or I'll jinx your boat. [img]graemlins/berry.gif[/img]

Hey,

Just remember,
Its easier to beg forgiveness than it is to get permission. :grin:
