Portland Springer Clinic

Just wanted to say thanks to Spot and Nate I learned so much last night.  I'm really looking forward to the on the water part of the class.  Thanks again.

Mark and Nate...thank you for a great presentation,a lot of good info. Thanks to Next Adventure for the pizza and brew. Great to meet a bunch of ya...cool to put some faces to the names I already knew.
Good luck to all in their springer pursuits!

Thank you Mark and Nate.  Great seminar.  Thank you for shortening the learning curve for me!.

Looking forward to the On the Water session.

Thanks Nate and Mark for the sharing your knowledge last night.  I have a question regarding the water turbidity data that you spoke about last night. I found this for the Willamette:

http://or.water.usgs.gov/will_morrison/monitors/will_morrison_tbdy_14.html

But I haven't been able to find this data for the Columbia.  Is there information like this for the Columbia?

It was great to put some faces with names and screen-names. Thanks to the hosts for the information and eats!

Now if only I could remember names... or faces... 

   'MISSION ACCOMPLISHED'

  A fine job by Nate and Mark at the Springer Clinic . A wealth of information given out on a large variety of topics. I'd say that you got the enthusiasm pumped up pretty high. I know I'm ready to start hooking up.

  There were about 25 people that showed up. I'd say that's a good turn out. Though I didn't get to meet everyone I was able to put a few names to faces that were new to me. That's always one of the best parts of our get-togethers.  Of course, re-connecting with guys you already know is always good too.

   I don't believe there will be any video of the seminar. Sorry about that for those that didn't attend. 2 hours of instruction/information would be sorta difficult to record and edit to convey all that was talked about. There were a lot of good questions asked about rigging,safety,locations,and techniques. And I hope everyone went away with some new knowledge. I know I did. I would suggest to anyone seeking information to put this on your calendar the next time it's offered.

  So--a big thanks to Mark, Nate, and Next Adventure for putting this together. Looking forward to hooking some spring king.

Thanks Guys this was a seminar! It really helped me to get this hands on with some of the equipment. Ill see you all in april!

This was the first seminar I missed in the last 3 years For those of you that went, you were taught by some of the best. Both Mark and Nate have a phd in fish juju.
I miss fishing with all you guys. I know I've been MIA from the forum but my job has really gotten hectic in the last 8 months. I've never been this busy in my entire life, but it's better than not having a job at all so I'm thankful for what I've got.
I haven't gotten my kayak wet since ORC. Can you believe that?
Mark, Nate, I am planning on being at the April 5th on the water event to lend a hand as needed.
And Mark, if you wear your floppy hat, I'll wear mine.

p.s. Wasn't the Jadester supported to finish that story with the new neighbors? That was like a year ago!

You're telling me. Work has kicked my butt the past 6 months. I'll definitely be out at Davis on Saturday. My schedule is beginning to open up so I should see more time on the water.
Looking forward to catching up with you Mark.
