Cruisin' on the Columbia. The highlight of this cruise is throwing rocks at B~C's boat.

A secondary point of interest would be the opportunity to catch what is widely held to be the best eating salmon in the world and the undisputed King of Kings.
Chinook run should be huge in 2004
December 29, 2003
VANCOUVER (AP) - The second-largest upper Columbia River spring chinook salmon run since counting began in the 1930s at Bonneville Dam is forecast for 2004. A whopping 360,700 adult spring chinook are predicted to enter the river in February, March, April and May destined for tributaries of the mid- and upper Columbia and Snake rivers.
The record count was in 2001 when a forecast of 364,000 turned into an actual run of 416,500. By contrast, the spring run was a mere 10,200 in 1995. This year, the run was 209,200.
Spring chinook are the best of all Columbia River salmon, prized by both sport and commercial fishermen.
The commercials get $5 to $6 a pound for spring chinook, compared to 20 cents to 50 cents a pound for fall salmon. The money comes at a time when lower Columbia communities like Astoria and Cathlamet can use an economic boost. _________________ TyBoo Mike

Concerning the rock throwing event, you should warm up by thowing them at Mike's boat (much bigger target) then graduate to a smaller target
Speaking of fishing, I wonder if the Yellowstone crew will make it, John was the key fisherman last year. _________________ Ken

I'd just like to say this about that, COOL. That sign up thing was kind of neat. Which of you nerd brothers gets the credit for that operation.
On another note I like the timing for the cruise since I may have some of my projects done and will be more than ready to hit the water. As I recall Cathlamet was the first cruise for the Lynn Marie last year after a winter of boat projects. Looking forward to it already. _________________ Tim and Judy w/o the Lynn Marie |

Sign me up! I would not miss it.
Even if I have to give up a Tuna day to have a day off to share with my fellow C-Brats, this is one I look forward to.
I am hoping for another beautiful day with my rod workingthe current while I cook breakfast and watch the eagles fly overhead.... Priceless. _________________

Is this truly only 4/10 and 4/11, or is it Friday 4/9 to Sunday, 4/11?

Pat, come as early as you want and stay as late as you can. I showed up 2 days early for the Sequim gathering this fall and was glad I did, loved the ambiance. This year I'm going to sandwich most of the Puget Sound gatherings with extra days. |

Larry -
When do you plan to plant the Helen O in the Elochman Slough? Didn't you say you got an annual slip at the marina?
I have scheduled my last week of vacation (until June 1 when I get a fresh batch) for the third week in February. I reckon it will take all of that week, plus a couple weekends after, to get the TyBoo ready to float for the season. I usually save my last week until April for fishing and boaterhoming, but this year has been so messed up that I didn't get anything done ahead of time. (Now you know why I have been so reluctant to respond to Mr. F. That, plus the fact that he could do many times the quality of woodwork.)
I can foresee the need for a shakedown cruise up the creek prior to the big CBGT at Cathlamet. It would be cool to happen upon your fine vessel up that way sometime in March. |
