yeah, it's cold, who cares?

I realize that it might be a little early to call it at this point, but if the weather holds, there might be a nice window to get out to the ocean on Thursday or Friday of this week. Yes, I realize it will probably be cold and yes, I realize the PDX meet up is on Thursday. I promise to be home in time and all washed up, ready for dinner to make it.
Anyone available to head out to PC Thurs or Fri?

I wouldn't mind trying it if the weather holds. I'm planning on going to Coos Bay Tuesday. It might be fun to grab my gear & head that way. You ever fish the Cape Arago area?

Cold, in PDX? Pbbfft!

I just got off the phone with my mother in Wyoming and they have around eight inches of snow, a temp of 1 F, and a windchill of -19 F. Yikes! I don't miss that!

I've never made it to Sunset Bay or Cape Arago, but I will certainly have to get down there sometime. It'll have to be on a long weekend or something since I'd like to make the most of it and fish a couple of days instead of driving down and back in the same day. Maybe I'll get a chance this May or June.

hmmm. I'll have to keep my eye on that thursday slot... you know i want to get out there

On my way to CB today after completing the current honeydew. Hope to tie in w/ Yaknitup in PC on Fri. Isaac, think you can make it?

Looks like Friday/Saturday would be the better days. I'll bow out tomorrow, and likely just hit the Willamette.  Can't do any other day.

Hey, speaking of Coos Bay; anyone heard from CBY? Lately, he's posting less often than I do... And, I post so infrequently that most people reading this are probably thinking "who the hell is Noggin Yakker??!!"

I'll call him when I get there & let y'all know (if that's ok w/ CBY)

So we will be out there if anyone has a last minute schedule change and wants to come out. At this point it looks like the weather is going to be great!

When and where are you hitting the Willamette?  I may be able to get time off.

Crap.  11 am is too early for me to cut out of work. Are you thinking of going again Friday?  I don't want to be a sturgeon virgin anymore.   If you are,what bait and where do you recommend I get it from.
