Official Announcement Salmon SlayRide Derby

So what is the cost?

Relax .  I'm sure as soon as they have it set they let us know.

          PRICELESS  !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rudy?
Is that polepole behind you in that pic?

Lol. No. If you follow any of the area boards it's the "doc" or fishinphysician     Francis Estalilla (sp).  Lives on WA fishes AK hard too.

      I thought that might be "eyefish". He is all over several west coast forums:ifish,AOD,Piscatoral Pursuits,Bloody Decks,and others.
      Never met the man yet.He has an optometry practice in Aberdeen.Hope to meet him some day,seems very passionate and informed about his fishing.

Ok - I just thought I missed the cost somewhere.

Not going to make this one.  .  Need to get busy studying for the PE.

    Any word on entry fees for this derby? Some people want to know.
    How about start times ?
    Pre-registration ?
    Weigh-in time/place ?

    It's getting closer--time to firm up planning.

Time's gettin short----any word on the group camp?  I gotta make plans.....

I am in! I have salmon fever after today!  Need more tug drug.

Updated my first post so check it out.  Will be using the Westport Inn in town for lodging and event headquarters. They have tent sites , RV spots and rooms, as well as a banquet room that we can use after the derby. 

Start time will be first light and weigh in closes at 4:00PM. 

Pre-register on Friday night at the Westport inn or at the Johns River boat launch with me before fishing.  I will be there before the sun comes up.


 

I'm getting excited about this!  Although I've never fished this way and suck at the cutplug method, (anybody wanna post a vid or picture lesson for us?)  Anyhow I'm in. 

Come on Rev, it won't be that much and the prizes can offset the cost, I might come in that Friday, would like to hit the fishery sooner to dry to get a feel for it. 

So sign me up, or whatever.

We can have a cut plug tutorial on Friday night and I will also show anyone interested how to use crowbars and cable baiters for rigging herring whole.

Bryan, I'll be there Tues--Friday, gotta leave Saturday for a Mariner game.  Hope to link up with you then....

Scott - thanks so much for organizing this!  I really can't wait.

WHat's the story on the group campsite??

Kallitype

Group campsite will be at the Westport inn in town.  Give them a call to reserve a site.   They have a big area set aside for us to use.  There is also the option of staying in a room or RV spot.  Mark the owner has been very helpful and is also donating 2 nights at his hotel for a prize.  The Westport inn has a banquet room that is available for use for after the event on Saturday.
