There really isn't any milfoil to worry about but the first year newbie and I went we didn't get up on plane fast enough and chumming through all the muddy water sucked as I was too far in to even get the boat up. >:(  We were returning at night and only a headlamp to guide us. I recall the finder showing less than a foot in places.  Anyone crossed this year yet?

I'm leaving Wenatchee around 8:30.  C-Money, I was really hoping to meet you.  I guess we may have to hook up for some walleye fishing.

I'm scrambling around last Minute packing and errands, should be outta here by 10:30 or 11.

If anyone realizes they forgot anything before then, shoot me a pm, I'll check before I leave town, and can always stop and pick stuff up.  :tup:

Is it just me or anyone else find these spawning cats a bit tough?
The non-spawners in the Snake later in the season have better quality more tender meat.

Not sure about the meat quality. But with the oil train derailment here in the gorge we won't be making it up that way this time. Unbelievable mess with traffic down here.
Slap some bacon on a biscut and lets go, were burrnin daylight!

Some fish were caught, some beers were had, some conversation took place, some food was digested and some fun was had.
