I'd be interested, but I don't think that day would work for me (we are moving offices at work..and it's a HUGE job). A month or so after then I'd def try and get there though!

I'm in, let's plan for a place with some space so we can try each other's rods. Obviously we'd have to plan for steelhead, trout streams would be too tight for this many people. Something tells me the river we had the last one on and the larger west trib will be blown for a while, how does that faster clearing GB trib sound?

I'm down for a day of trout, but I just don't know if you want to disclose it to everyone. Let me know what you're thinking.

FWAF - doing something like this is praiseworthy, mad respect to you brother.  However not everyone shares the same ideas as you, me, our resident brookie fiend, etc. I'm with the caddis on this, think about it before you are willing to show people.  Couple of my brown spots are fishless because someone came in and cleared house... you'd be able to show up and get at least 5 brownies in an outing ( lots of 1 footers with the odd one larger - there are some little piggies that have been pulled from here ).  Now an 8"er is the super beast...

we need to do it somewhere where its already been raped of resources--a certain park comes to mind with lots of room--casting in the am and them waly upstream far enough to get away from the 200000000000000 center pinners drifting 700000 yards downs stream,...lol
