This was a very enjoyable get-together! It was great to meet Phil, Quill, Terrier, Dan/Sandy and Bass Yakker. Also great to see Andrew, Marty and Pat again. 

Good backstrap medallions, summer sausage sandwiches, jalapeño potato salad and burgers. You know the food is good when every fly in the county shows up😀

Fishing wise:  you all know I typically target only the big fish. But for this trip I thought I’d try this micro fishing everyone’s talking about. Of course I was wildly successful. 🤪
 

Looks like a little rainbow?

Oh geez, y’all are on my same timeline. Maybe some, are more advanced, some less. Good looking gray haired posse!

Had a great time today!  Thank you to Dan for organizing this and for everyone watching kayaks and canoes, shuttling people, and bringing and preparing delicious food!  Got on the water about 8 and got done around 1.  Water temperature was 76 degrees.

And now the elephant in the room…

Where were the heck were the Vienna sausages??😀

They were there in one of the bags, when it was time to go - they were gone!

Maybe the flies carried them away, or those red bugs.

A truly wonderful quality time.  Thanks Dan for putting it together.  Really like that river rig you had made - very nice outfit.  Great to meet you and all the others. 

OAF comes through again.  Thanks Phil for doing this website.

Yep. I opted out of floating and was over at Crane Creek.

Is it too early to think about the next trip?

A couple additional thanks…

Thanks to Terrier and Pat for nailing down the pavilion. It was a hot afternoon and that shade was nice. Thanks to Phil for the salmon candy. Good stuff! And thanks to Sandy for jumping in and just making things work better. And, thanks for the history lesson about the area!
