Who's headed out? Debating on taking the revo. Haven't figured out if the wife is going. Might have a open seat in the jet if she doesnt.

I'll probably tow the boat out to cascade locks so long as the roads aren't icy. Don't have an open seat at the moment, but I'll post up if I do.

If I'm solo I could see taking the kayak.

I was wanting to go but have been fighting the flu since last week.   Good luck.

I haven't looked at the regs; is it open for retention above Bonnie starting 1/1?

Towed my aluminum boat to cascade locks, looked at the white caps.....then towed it to hood river. Beautifully calm there.

BUT shoulda brought the kayak instead. Main motor wouldn’t start, so I ended up pulling it back out and heading home. I’ve been letting it sit too long in between trips since I’ve gotten into kayak fishing. Turned out to be old, bad gas, and I got it started once I was back home.

Bad gas in the kayak just means too much junk food and football watchin.
