Fine report. Some things about the Yoop Jeff is too much of a
gentleman to report on:
Pasties should never be eaten in a closed vehicle
The Fisher Shack is the Taj-Mafreakin-Hal of fish camps
One can violate all 10 commandments of ATV operation in one trip (can
cause serious injury or death)
A piece of water should not have the appellation "river" if you can dam
it with your foot
A bar and restaurant called UP Chucks should not be allowed to serve
food
Don't play quick draw with a broken bear spray canister (and no, it
wasn't me)
Yoopers can recognize Southerners at a distance and will shoot at them
The most beautiful fall foliage in the world is on the UP
Weddings should not be allowed in you chosen fishing hole
Ralph the fishing dog loves the water
Jeff missed the worst landing that I've ever had that did not bring out
the fire trucks, so he doesn't have to worry, the Karma is still good
Wolfy is a gracious host and worked as hard as any Clavemeister I've
ever seen to put folks on fish
Wild blueberries are great, Jackie's cakes are better
Wolfy can make a campfire hot enough to melt titanium


Thanks to Wolfy, John, Jeff, Wayne, George, Jackie and Ralph the dog
for making it a wonderful trip

That's one of the saddest things I've ever read in this group...

Let me know if you want any recent, local reports...

Such as the fact the Klickitat is kicking out a steelhead or two this week.

Well, ate at the "Bonefish" tonight. Good food. Had a trico hatch
come off the river. All the folks I was with were swattin' and jukin'
to get them away. To me it was heaven. Wanted my 5 weight.
Plane gets back to Omaha at 1800, got an 1830 fly club meeting. Life
is good.

Frank, where did you learn to say "jukin"? I thought only SW
Pennsylvanians said that.

Well, I guess I'm a Pennsyltuckian at heart. Its actually military
terminology for "don't run directly at the machine gun nest or this may
cause severe injury or death."
