Thanks for the help TB! Followed the hints and went 5 fish to the boat with two of them keepers. [img]graemlins/applause.gif[/img]

Not bad on the ratio, but not to good on the numbers side.

Smelt was workin'

Good to see TR, Bob, and the motorhomeman?

Well Barbarians is on!!!

No problem.

Thanks to Taylor's View for joining Dick and me today. The retiree's club scored the two fish while I got a few shakers and a fiesty squaw fish

Oh well, those shakers were a gas on the salmon rod!

Krue- Good job bro You got two fish that matters, numbers is just numbers. Those keepers in the boat eat a lot better than the numbers swimming in the river. Keep some slots open big guy, the estuary is just around the corner [img]graemlins/hearton.gif[/img]

You guys fishing above or below the ramp?

Thanks for the ride Krue, but you shouldn't lie about the heater. Thats not nice. When I got home I kissed the wife and gave her a big hug. She had a puzzled look on her face and asked what that was all about. I told her thanks for letting me by a boat with a heater and a top. Thanks again, it was fun meeting you and Dick. Saturday is just around the corner.

TB, SPAZZ, We were in between the St John's and the railroad bridge.

KHH, I think you went whippin' by us. Were you fishing out of the white Duck?

C&E, I know an gruffy bear like you wouldn't be whimpering about a little wind and rain. Come on TV, Sheez, I was in the back piloting the sled and it felt like I had a slurpy brain-freeze going. You were up front all snug, dry and warm

I wish I could get one more day before Saturday. Funny story, as we were flying out to the hole, all we had was a bimi top up. The rain was coming down good and I was concentrating on not passing out from the excruciating pain in my bald head. Anyway, I was watching the Hummingbird and was seeing the exact shelves and structure that Tb had mentioned. So, I pull up to a shelf and we anchor up. Funny thing is, that after we caught a couple sturgeon, Dick tells me that the finder was on demo mode. [img]graemlins/dork.gif[/img]

Talk about a blind dog finding a bone, huh?

Taylor's viewpoint: Now thats what I call a boat George I wanted to thank you again for the open seat last week. It was a fun day with you and fred. Thanks again. Next time take your boat and just tie up to them you will be much warmer.

Krue, on Saturday you are not allowed under the top or next to the heater. You are to stay out back with the bait. I'll come out there if it gets too hot inside or I have a pretty strong bite. I heard it is going to be snow mixed with rain all day on Saturday. You will have an ice cream headache until we get back to the dock. I don't know why I am taking you anyway, you can't catch fish. Everyone in the boat last weekend had a keeper but you. [img]graemlins/dork.gif[/img]
If this sounds like we have discension among our ranks, you are right. I am still cold from that trip and I want you to suffer for a while. :grin: :grin:

Krue, Im glad ya had a good time and cought some fish. Sorry about having to edit my post about where we were on sunday but I made a MAJOR MISTAKE giving our special spot. My buddy told me I shouldnt give our exact spot since I was a guest on the boat that day. I was so excited about how many and the quality of fish we cought that day that I wanted to share with other I fishers. Hope we can fish along side or together one day. tight lines krue and team. Brian

Hey George,

Did I tell you about that "special chili" that my mother-in-law made :shocked:

Oh yeah, a bowl of that for pre-breakfast, 6 or so hard-boiled eggs on the way to St. John's and then right before getting on the boat, chug a Bergie Beer [img]graemlins/eek13.gif[/img]

Krue

PS: No dissention here George, I am happy to be aboard and I think we got a heck of a chance if we stick and move a bit
