Oregon Rockfish Classic Announcement

I'm actually more stoked to attend now, than before. Fishing and chilling with like minded people is what it's all about. The essence of the ORC lives on!

Also, I don't see why I couldn't coordinate a potluck.

I agree. Own it like a boss!

Just wait until someone gets food poisoning, who is liable in this case? Did I open a can of worms?

Anyone want to bring some Barbie rods for friendly competition?

Hey everyone,

CoastalChief has now turned into AuroraChief (lol).  I have just moved from Depoe and now live in Canby.  I am super bummed about the news.  Regardless of what goes on Ill be there for the classic.  I learned how to fish the ocean from people here on this site and event. 

I am more than willing to help in anyway that I can for the future.  I have a lot of local contacts in the DB are and can call upon them anytime.  Now... I need help fishin the river!!

It wouldn't be horribly complicated to have each competitor send a screenshot of the receipt for an online donation to HOW or Neighbors For Kids (their choice.) That acts as the registration, then everyone pays a crisp $5 (or $10 can't recall) bill at registration for the insurance. It's really not THAT complicated in the grand scheme of things.

Can you reach back out to them and let them know there will be a lot of us?  Also, if we could use the parking lot above as overflow, that would be great.  Thanks.

If you want some assistance with organization let me know.

We check into our timeshare at Worldmark on Thursday, hoping the ocean cooperates fully. I really want to catch a number of species, halibut, Chinook, silver, ling etc. So hopefully get a lot of time on the water in good conditions. I would also love to meet up with more yakkers. Last year was my 1st ORC, and I really enjoyed it, so not much to go off of. I do hope the ORC can continue to be a event.

Last 2 ORCs I only fished with barbie poles.

The good news is we can take some pressure off of the ramp by launching at Fogarty Creek .

I was thinking of bringing the AI and sailing and finding some flat fish.

What is launch time Saturday morning?

What is launch time Saturday morning?

Well since this is just a bunch of people meeting up, I would say whenever you want.

It's all depth halibut fishing on Friday and Saturday, so the boat launch will be packed. This happened several years ago and there wasn't any parking spaces after 4:30am. There were rigs with boat trailers parked on the access road all the way to 101 by 5:00am.

Oi! Hopefully folks will carpool.  It is a good thing we do not have 120 people coming.
