There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!

the trip was a goodie!..we had 9 paddlers show up, and 4 of us river camped, about a mile and a half befor the bakers ford take-out. weather was great for january, although we did get some rain during the night,( a dark thought glooming in my mind as i try to sleep! of floating away in my tent.) this section of river has some long deep pools with fast moving current i would rate this as a easy class 1 +... the only diffaculty was some wave trains and a few standing waves, the water level was on the high side for fishing, but made for some great floating, not sure of the water temps ,but is was cold ! saw two eagles and a big beaver that did a tail slap as i commanded him to! for the group! as we drifted by! everyone thought that was pretty funny! i asked the beaver in a loud voice if he was enjoying this great day! and that he could reply... with one splash means yes! and about that time he slap his tail and was gone!

I'll most likely be there when I get back home.

Reminds me, I tried that E-mail you gave me last fall and it didn't work, if you would, send it to me PM.

Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
