Title: SRTU Fish With a Friend, Sept. 12
Post by: Dougfish on August 31, 2015, 06:28:10 AM
Our annual "Fish with a Friend" event will closely follow our regular meeting. On Saturday, September 12th, we'll meet at the Mirror Plant at 8:30 for an orientation and spread out for fishing from there. As many of you know they are now releasing water from 10-2 on weekends. This will be an excellent opportunity to fish with a "Smith River Regular" who knows how to fish around the generation schedule. We'll reassemble downstream at 12:30 at the Trent Hill Canoe Ramp (adjacent to burned out Bassett Chair Factory) to compare stories and SRTU complementary burgers/hot dogs/soft drink. After lunch would be a great time to head back upstream behind the generation surge - falling water often triggers an aggressive bite. Bring a friend - bring two! We have over 30 miles of good trout fishing so there is plenty of room to spread out.

Hell yes. No need to PM that one other then to work out details. Get something going and I will even open up my cabin for weekend of fishing next spring or early summer. I did the same for PHW back when it was run by Chris T.

They are having issues with the turbines at Philpott Dam which means we don't know what the generation schedule, if any, will be like on Saturday.  We're planning the "Fish with a Friend" event as noted below. We'll keep checking the generation announcement  (276-629-2432)  and send out an update if we need to cancel.  Keep your fingers crossed - see ya at the Mirror Plant at 8:30 am.




Smith River Trout Unlimited (SRTU)  will host a "Fish with a Friend" event on Saturday, September 12th.  Participants will meet at the Mirror Plant at 8:30 for an orientation, pairing up with a SRTU member and spread out for fishing from there.
