I forget the water temperature in the river last year. But I vote we travel
downstream to a plus five degree water temp.

Plan on a massive, well stocked regatta with a better menu and sufficient
liquids to prevent the severe de-hydration I experienced last year.

Well, give it about a sixty minute staggered start between flotillas. One
of those smaller, blow up type flat rafts would be good to carry
supplies.....leave earlier-fish longer.

John,

We could start where we finished last year and fish down to the
Susquehanna. The creek does get slower & deeper as it approaches the
river. I'm all for a longer trip.

IIRC, the stretch from where we got out to the Susquehanna isn't a
great deal longer than what we did this year. Given John's suggestion
to "leave earlier-fish longer", with which I agree, how about putting
in where we did last time and THEN go all the way to the Susquehanna.
Early start and late finish should do it, no?

Wolfgang
we're going to need a beer barge.

Works for me. What we need is an innertube, a large cooler and a big
rock for ballast.

Well, I've been told I am as dumb as a rock, does that count?

Well, a large soft object bouncing along the bottom beats a hard metal
object any day of the week.....and since you are going to be there
anyhow....

ooooooooh....john - gosh Frank, bring something that floats and come
along!

I think the significant characteristic here, Frank, is S.G., not I.Q.

Things are rarely as simple as they appear at a glance. If one calculates
ballast value by multiplying S.G. by I.Q., a low value for the former and a
high value for the latter might yield the same result as vice versa. But,
I'm going to guess the latter is preferable.

Wolfgang
obviously, high.....or low.....values for both wouldn't work very well
either.
