Dave

The way it works out timewise is that we will be there mid to late
July
We have a guide chosen to float or drift w us but no confirmation of
exact dates as yet but this week it will be done
We may stay at Big Eddy Campground

I know that there will be a lot of preople but what I want to know:

Is it a circus or combat type fishing ? July 15-to 25
Same w the campground ???

If its a nutso place - we will go elsewhwere.

We are first fishing ths salt for stripes around Csco Bay N up to the
Kennebec

Thamks in advnance for any info.

Last time I fished it, Fred, was in September a couple of years ago,
and there was only one other drift boat. I doubt that it is ever
combat fishing. I would imagine it to be crowded on week-ends, however.

The Big Eddy is a great campground with decent facilities, and it sits
astride the Big Eddy in the river.
