Several have suggested we take this discussion where all can see it and add to it fresh.  I'm going to start it up in General Talk.

I just started a "this happened to me thread" here: http://www.norcalkayakanglers.com/index.php/topic,18124.0.html

Going to copy in some of the posts from here, but feel free to add your own too!

So, I went and made a video as a tribute to GMS III for people to share with their friends and families.  It just seems a bit easier to share a video than say go look at this post.  I used pictures from the post, so that it could encompass the whole fishing experience of this incredible weekend. 

If anyone has any issues with me using their pictures, please PM me and ill remove them, or the video entirely. 

Otherwise, enjoy!  :smt006

Al -

Very nice video and it was nice meeting/fishing with you. I liked the music on your video and the cibachrome effect on the leadin video. Very sweeeet!!! BTW - with regard to the safety discussions, don't take it personal, really just bad luck, IMHO. Like I said before, I swim more than any NCKA member that I know and consider it part of the sport. We are all learning out there.

Thank you for putting it together.

Finally found my USB for my camera and was able to DL the few pics I took. I didn't catch a single small fish all week-end. All of the verms i caught were about the same size as the one pictured.

Thanks again, Eric, for setting this up. I will be attending every GMS that you are kind enough to put together. And thanks again to spdrcr for donating the awesome seat that I won.

abking maybe you and the moderator could figure out how to extract all this safety and rescue talk from the thread and give it it’s own little corner in the cyberworld   It’s a shame to clutter up a nice fishing report this way

Hey, I thought we already did that!  Are you related to Rod Serling?  Watch out - I'm losing my marbles tonight in anticipation of getting back OTW tomorrow.  I need to be sedated about now...

BTW, Happy Birthday, Domenic!   :smt058
