You betcha!

I'll be out of town the last half of that, but steelhead fishing should
be in full swing, and the chum salmon will still be available in some
rivers. I've managed to figure out the salmon this year, and I'm
hoping to do the same with the steelhead this winter. Skiing will get
in the way if the snow's good, but I'd enjoy getting together and
fishing with you. Be ready for cold wet weather. I whimp out when the
line freezes in the guides, but 35 degrees and drizzle can be a
pleasant day to be on the river.

Email me for details.
