So many ways to shout the news, onlt eighteen days till the catchlimit cruise :smilep. :beer :beer Jon.

Chuckpacific, Have not made that trip in a CD but have done a lot of fishing along that whole stretch back when we had a 12' Livingston. The areas at Cascade locks and just below each of the dams can definitely create major pucker :o. Best to get very definite info for negotiating each of the...

Pat, Where did you find the crab knobs for the cupboards? Gotta have some :smilep :smilep. Jon

PS: Steve, There is a Lake Powell cruise coming up in April. if you go to the home page and look down the left side you can click on that thread to see who is going and who might be in your area. Another good spot to start asking questions. Jon

Steve, Okay, that gives a lay of the land :thup. The 22' is a very popular size and there are many Brats here at the Pub who will chime in. It is hard to find used ones because the CDs last so darn long and people are hard pressed to give them up. If you click on the forum section and scroll...

Slim, The first thing is to ask, what do you plan on doing most of the time in this brand spankin' new CD?

Larry, :smilep :smilep :smilep :smilep :smilep springer :smilep :smilep :smilep :smilep :smilep springer :smilep :smilep :smilep :smilep :smilep

Maybe B~C could have his students write GWB and ask for a small ration of smelt for Catchlimt. They could send pics of Ken sitting on the bank of the river with tears in his eyes :cry. Jon

Well I went ahead and bought the Uniden Atlantis handheld model. I got a great deal with all of the accessories I wanted on E-Bay for $85 delivered and as the lovely Terrie pointed out the blue and white colors match the boat :smiled. It was amazing to me, while looking for the best deal, how...

Tim, I know what you mean. We mainly do the Nehalem Chinook and Coho and do fine, but I have seen how a different body of water can call for different tactics. I'm takin' my full arsenal on this trip. Went down to Lysters in Garabaldi last weekend and stocked up on herring and weights, will...

Springer slime! ohhhhh yeahhhh :D. Hey Tim, are you & Judy also going to be wielding the highly coveted RSKs at Catchlimit? Jon

Yeah! exactly like that, only different.

B~C, No sea socks :cry:, But like the old song goes; I'll be trollin' round the river for some fish, I'll be trollin' round the river for some fish, I'll be trollin' round the river, I'll be trollin' round the river, I'll be trollin' round the river for some fish. Everybody! I'll be trollin'...

Dusty, Maybe once the newness of the boat wears off and my confidence as skipper grows I might try driving it on. Dave, Using the dock cleat makes good sense, I'll give that a go for sure :thup. Thanks, Jon

Just wanted to get this back on the board so people could respond to the above question. This brings up a point though for the nerd guys. It would be nice to see the last 10 or 15 items discussed because once their off the board, your odds of getting a reply drop somewhere in the basement...

Dave, That's all I need, another opportunity for the LT to get a rod in her hands before me :evil:. I like the long line idea for when I get to take the boat out alone though. Would also be good getting her back on when the tide is pushing the aft end around. Thanks, Jon

B~C, I guess that far down the swanny river, slack means slack aye? Mike, I wanna be there when you catch half a springer :shock:. Jon

Mike, Great advice that I will heed :thup. Jon

Thanks to everyone for their usual great input :thup. Because the Uniden Atlantis radio was mentioned a couple of times here, I looked at the Uniden line of radios. I'm liking the atlantis handheld and have found one with all the attachments for a good price. I also found one of the Solara...

TyBoo Mike, Glad to hear we got a scouting party heading to the cruise spot. My recent Columbia springer studies (css) have boiled down to some facts that run consistent with all articles. 1) Troll the tides, anchor the slacks 2) Fish the edges of sandbars running parallel with the current...
