Fish n' Cleanup October 25, 2014 *Roll Call Page 1*

It's about time for our second annual Fish 'n' Cleanup, but this year it is all about the Delta!

Date:
10/25/2014 (Saturday)

Fees & Registration: None

Times:

Many will launch at sunrise and fish in the early AM (high tide and outgoing).  The launch is muddy and isn't particularly easy. Drysuits or something to keep your legs dry during launch is advised.

Cleanup starts at 10ish or earlier if anyone feels like being an extra good steward. 

Potluck starts around 1:00, and awards will be given during the potluck.


Location:
Shag Slough at the Liberty Island Rd accesses. This is a pretty central location and is both an hour away from Vallejo and Sacramento. For directions see link at the bottom of the page.

What to bring specifically for the event:  Trash bags, gloves & hand sanitizer and drinking water.  If you have a 5gal container of water please bring it to refill our hand washing station (there is no running water at this location).

Prizes: Headwaters has prizes for trash pickup (will be a surprise)!


Traildad has generously offered to bring a portapotty for the event.


Potluck:
Tim/Daleshark has volunteered to be the grillmaster for the day.
If you would like to let us know what you plan to bring please post up on this thread.


We are looking for people who can haul trash out from the event and to our dump location near Davis.

Fishing:
Available species are striper, sturgeon, crappie and black bass.
If you plan to target sturgeon please make sure you know the regs.
Don't hesitate to ask any specific fishing questions on this thread, or send racinrob a PM 

Directions:

From Sacramento

I have decided to host the annual Headwaters/SacCrew Fish N' Cleanup at Liberty Island this year.  The tentative date is October 25th. Available fishing: Sturgeon, Striper, Catfish, Crappie, and black bass. High tide is in the early AM, so we can fish the outgoing and clean up in the late morning/afternoon. 

I would like to get some feedback:

Is October 25th a major conflict?
Who is interested in attending the Fish N Cleanup?
Who is interested in helping out (potluck, garbage hauler etc.)?
Does anyone want a sturgeon or striper fishing clinic at the day of the event or earlier?
Do we want t-shirts like last year?
Do we want prizes for trash pickup?

Thanks!

That place could really use it. Why is it so many fisherman think it's Ok to toss their trash where they fish? 
Do you plan to launch next to the bridge? If there is any significant rain, the levee turns into a slippery muddy mess. I made the mistake of fishing in the rain there and almost didn't make it back out. I feel that it is my back yard and I'd like to help.

Would love to go, but I am out of town that weekend.
