Official Announcement Salmon SlayRide Derby

Where is Grays Harbor and why does this have to be on the closing weekend of Archery Season?

  Grays Harbor is 50 miles west of Olympia,Washington.To get to Johns River follow the hiway signs to Westport,go about 12 miles west of Aberdeen,and the river is just past Ocean Spray Cranberry plant and you're there.Take a left turn on John's River Road (across the street from John's River Tavern) and follow the road to the left down to the boat launch.

  Kykfshr----is there an "offical" sign-up ? Count me in for sure......
  What do you need help with ?
   Let folks know and we can make this another great derby.

question, jigging, mooching or trolling, which is the accepted tried and true method of fishing in this bay, bait or lure, distance to fishing grounds, thanks for any info

It's a trolling game ... http://salmonuniversity.com/wtc_grays_harbor.html

this sounds like perfect fishing for a person new to kayak fishing, hope to get a kayak this month with all safety gear

Count me in!  I will probably take a small travel trailer and make a weekend of it.  Excited to finally be able to make an event!

Make sure you have your tag filled opening weekend. 

I think I may be able to make this event.  I will put in for time off.

I'm very hopeful for this one, still have to talk to the wife though.  Sounds like fun!

Twin Harbors campground is my fave.....I usually try to get the end spot or the one next to it in the center section of sites in the area next to the beach.  The showers work well, the facilities are pretty clean, and it is close to everything.  This will be a great event!

I may be able to attend this one. kykfshr thx for putting this together!

I'm in, sounds like a hoot. Let me know what I can do to help out. Thanks for putting this together.

So in for this!!!

I'm in for sure! Finally one close to home! I won't be camping though.

I'm in, I'll be there Weds as I have to be back for a Mariner's game retirement party for my old boss at the VA -- will be leaving early Sat AM.   Looks like Twin Harbors sites are all 1st come 1st served in September.

I just called Twin Harbors, they said the group xcampsite will be available, if noone has already made a reservation.  I'm calling the reservation line right now....

Conflicting info from the park and from the State Park reservation system.  Will try to get the park desk to make  the reservation for Sept 19-22,so those who want to come early for scouting etc can set up.  OK with whoever is heading this effort?  Will wait to call  until I hear.
