Smith River Tu - fish & picnic, Saturday, June 16, 2007

[Al]

Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 16th when the Smith River Trout Unlimited will host a get together for fishing on the Smith, followed by a picnic at the Corps of Engineers picnic area up near the dam.

The details are still a work in progress but the general plan will be for anyone who would like to link up with a "Smith River Regular" to do so at 8am at the Mirror Factory and break out from there for some exploration and fishing. Lunch is on your own but  be sure to save some room for a hamburger and hot dog cook out at 4pm at the base of the dam. We will tell compare notes, tell some lies, try to convince you to lend your support to the Smith River fishery  and maybe head out again for some evening fishing if the generation schedule allows.

You do not have to be a member of TU to attend this event.(You must be a member in order to vote on Chapter business) Anyone who has an interest in the Smith River Fishery is encouraged to attend.

We are working up the logistics of the picnic. Current thinking is that we will provide the main course, i.e. burgers and hot dogs along with the condiments. We will also provide soda and water (No beer or booze in COE picnic area - O'Doul's or Near Beer ok). Participants will be asked to bring a covered dish or finger food to add to the table. More details to follow. For right now just get it on your calendar so that the day is free for some fishing and camaraderie with like minded folks.
