Oh man, times burning out for the '08 AOTY and if anyone's gonna pull in that last fish/es to boost themselves up they're gonna have to man up in this weather.

Kykfshr is only 51.25 points behind the leader Spot!
I'm only 75.25 behind CBY.
Bsteves is only 15.65 behind me!!
Pisco Sicko's only 15.65 him!!
Pole Pole are you even in Wash??

AOTY '08 looks to be ending in a real nailbiter since one good fish could shift the placing all over the place. Now where was I going fishing on Sat again..  ::)

Given that I'm more likely to gather NCKA AOTY points where  I am now (Fresno) you don't have to worry too much about me Zee.

Although I wanna get out on the water one of the days after new years ... Jan 2 or 3.  Who wants to start AOTY 2009 with a bang?

Brian, meet you at the Forebay on Saturday?

This weather has been driving me crazy.  When will it stop.  I have been waiting patiently but time is running out.  Must get out and fish.

Awesome photos Pisco!!!

I'm on a mission to break 1000! 

I hit a coastal river the day before this hit but got chased off by high winds and frozen fingers.  The drift anchor worked like a dream however. 
If it's not snowing next weekend, you'll find me backing plugs down chutes or tossing jigs and yarnflies under bobbers.

Sounds good Allen, but I don't have any gear with me here in Fresno.  I take that back, I have a rod down here, but the reel is already in Portland.

This year...I must fold, sadly.
 I was really thinking I could add up some points with the AOTY this year. I was very anxious to fish much more this year.
 As it stands, I will not yet be released from the Dr. to paddle before the end of the year. Never posting a point, I still feel that I got every penny's worth of my entry fee.
 If not for the winner, for the whole of NWKA.
 Y'all make my mornings at times and have saved me lotsa headaches when it comes to rigging.
 with that said...I wish you all a very good Cristmas/ Festivus, whatever it is that you do so well.
and have a very

                           HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Mele Kalikimaka to all.

I'm out of the water until February. I'll be out ski touring and camping in the 3 Sisters Wilderness with the wife and a bunch of college students. Stay Warm and safe.
