Well Mr Makela
The only one I am sure of is one in a place called
Coburn Pa (you can goggle penns clave for prior claves) A few fine
flyfishermen get together and drink eat and fish all day and into
darkness.....The dates for the 2007 clave are somewhere around the 19th
of May thru the 27th......You can contact Hemlock Acres for lodgeing or
a few other fine estabishments in the Coburn area to include the Penns
Angler somewher around Laurelton Pa at the intersection of route 45 and
sr2030 which with any kind of luck will be open recieving guest and
selling some of the finest flies and fishing equipment for the area
along with information on what flies to use at any time of the day or
night ( shamless plug ).........Clave central is a trailer in Hemlock
acres I think site 56 or 82 maybe something else when we get back there
in April........ Sir Thomas Littleton is the clavemiester he brings
along with his 6' 7" frame a knowledge (sp) uncanny of the area and can
be persuaded to part with a fly or two for a Yuengling Lager (damn
lush) all in all it is a fine time had by all if you are interested in
attending just show up if you need directions they can be atained by
asking bring along a few dozen friends as we always say the more the
merrier and we will keep the left over beer for you so you don't get
pinched on your way home after a week of excellant fishing fine food
and most of all comraderie................................

Sounds like a fine Clave, indeed. I'll have to check it out.

Are there any fish thereabouts?

Yo Mike... On Monday the 18th I'll know the future of Penns Creek
Angler. Check the website on Tuesday and you'll see a very sad or very
happy announcement. I'd say there are fish about, I'll post a report
after this weekend. We had the best water levels in years and 2007
should be fantastic with a good spawn. I wish I could have opened the
shop this past season. At any rate I have a certain fly tyer with a 6ft
7 inch frame that we all know very well doing 60 dz flies, another
great guy doing 30 dz and I'll add another 50dz to the mix so there
will be no shortage of flies. I'll also have a special supply of Green
Drakes tied by the master Mike Marcinek who was taught to tie the
pattern by George Harvey. If you want to see something special checkout
the front page on the website, its an October Caddis #8. What a
beautiful Fly.

Recently, Bruce showed me some of the flies tied by the tall one.
Exceptional quality flies, beyond what you might expect to see in a fly
shop. As for other offerings at Penns Creek Angler, I've used some
of the fly rod blanks that Penns Creek Angler has chosen for his fly
rod offerings and they are very well accepted by the rod building
community.

Well guys the fishing was ok, I only got one nice fish in the 20 inch
class and all the rest were all small 11-16 inches. The the water was
cold @ 38 degrees in the afternoon. My hands were freezing after the
first fish each day. The GREAT news is the loan was approved!
Construction starts in the middle of Jan and the whole project will be
finished by March 15 (store and apartments). Its not going to be the
greatest shop the first year but I'll have lodging for large groups.
The shop will be stocked with enough stuff to make your trip a good
one. Check the web page for more info or with Tom L.
Ps: Tom is doing 60 dz flies for the shop so here is your chance to get
as many flies as you want made by the master.

Mike When, What, Where?

This is a _very_ long shot, I know: I will be fishing for Atlantic
salmon (and maybe grayling) in the northernmost part of Finland right
after midsummer (25.6.-), and could arrange a mini-clave if someone
is interested.

I invited our Swedish friends (Roger et al.) to join, but they had
already booked another fishing engagement at the same time.

Here are a few photos of the fishing spot next to my camp - as you can
see, a two-handed rod helps (I can teach two-handed casting if
necessary):

That's an interesting boat!
Sort of canoe/dory hybrid, that can handle moving
water and a motor.

Is there a name for that boat? How can I find out
how to build one?

In Sweden they were/are simply called river boats. The shape makes it
easier travelling the rivers. They were quite common during the days of
timber flotation.
My Grandfather had one, and I have on numerous occasions had the
pleasure of riding both up and downstream River Byske. Easy to maneuver
and not to wide, the latter meaning that they will cut through the
current very well. All in all it is a very good soultion to travel up
and down rivers, unless a canoe is sufficient for one's needs.

Thank you Roger. That's a start. I've been working with Google, but
have not yet found a boat building site that sells blueprints--Swedish,
Finnish or Norweigian, or whatever. That's what I want: blueprints.
That looks like a damn fine boat.

They are called river boats here in Finland too. I did find a PDF-file
with instructions and drawings - unfortunately the text is in Finnish,
but maybe a boat builder like you can make some sense of the obscure
drawings:

Thank you Jarmo. That's a start. I can't read the text,
but numbers and numbers. I can see from the drawings
what's going on. This seems to be much like a long
skinny dory at both ends, stretched apart by a flat
spot in the middle. That's seems to be the distinguishing
characteristic of this boat..........the only way to make a looooong
dory that doesn't end up shaped like a bananna.

www.duckworksbbs.com might be a resource for you. They're a boat

translate the Finnish for you.
