Tom,
Is there a maximum number of people that can sign up for this, or is it
open?... Also I didn't see any registration deadline date?... I would
absolutely love to make that... I'm originally from the Seattle area and
have been down here in New Mexico for the past 8 years.. I miss it
tremendously...

Rodney,
I didn't see a sign-up or a deadline date either, and the only charge is a
$4.00 parking fee at Oxbow Park. I take it you just show up. Gosh, did you
see the list of Fly Fishing Legends, and the reps of vendors who are
attending? Free seminars. They're calling the event the "Woodstock of Spey
Casting". It's also the peak of the spring Chinook run, not to mention the
steelhead, but if it's indeed anything like Woodstock it will probably be
fished out the first two hours. I plan to fly down with my 8w reel, try
out the spey rods and get some tips on casting.

I was at the San Mateo ISE show earlier this month where I got my first try
at Spey casting. On my 3rd cast I put out a beautiful roll cast of 90 ft.
It was effortless and very accurate. This time I would like to see how Spey
is used in an actual fishing situation.
Hope to see you there.
