Fishing the Blue ribbon area on the Eleven Point and the NFOW,

[snagged in outlet 3]

I've never been that impressed with the NFOW.  My buddies always talked me into stopping there on the way to the White and Norfork.

Actually we have thinned the herd from the early years.  When a guy only gets once a year from his wife and he sits down at the campfire with an 18 pack and a bottle crown...Lookout! 

 

Once a year?  Once????  Sad emoji is not enough.

The cool thing about NFOW is that all the truly good spots are accessable by land and a short hike.  No real need to float it IMO.

That is the dumbest statement you have ever uttered FW. NFoW is 95% private land. Guess you have not fished it much.

Tell you what....You float whatever stretch you want, and I'll run spots in my truck.  At the end of the day I'll meet you at Dawt and we'll compare pics.     Looser buys beers, fried pickles, and Rubens.     

Pick a date that's 1000cfs or less.    😊

Brian Sloss still has lodging at Alton, but Hufstedlers own both Float Camp locations at Riverton and Alton.  Great folks and will take care of all of your floating needs.

I don't think I have to worry about the guys getting rowdy. Most of us are retired old farts just wanting to fish a different stream. This trip is just an exploratory venture to see if they want to start a yearly thing or not. I may take the suggest that we split the trip into separate groups and just do one river at a time.  As to the Number of guys going, I really do not have a head count, eight was just a number that came to mind. Sunburst sounds good for a start. Where can we access the Blue Ribbon area by foot, keep in mind some of these guys have physical limitation. Thanks for the input.

I'm going with Gavin on this one. There are some good spots accessible by land but I like the ones that aren't.
