Default John Day River Smallmouth Clave?

Just putting my toe in the water, but would there be any interest in a John
Day River, Oregon smallmouth float trip clave thingee? (I believe we can
rent rafts/pontoon boats for such an event, but I will need to check, IF
there is any interest, this is a calm float thing with very few rapids, so
canoes work well too) A few of us Oregonian types may be pursuaded to act
as Clavemeisters for such an experience.

Here is a taken from a website about the fishery: Beginning in the Blue
Mountains and flowing north to the Columbia, the John Day is the second
longest free-flowing stream in the U.S, and is protected as a "Wild and
Scenic" river under the Oregon Scenic Waterways Act. In 1971, Seventy-five
Smallmouth Bass were introduced to the river. Since then, they have
flourished! The John Day River is arguably the best Smallmouth Bass water in
the country. The season is at its peak from late May to early August; it's
quite common for anglers to hook 75+ fish per rod per day. Fish average from
8"-12", with larger fish in the 18"-20" range.
