GS6 - 5/12/12 - Another Year in the Books - Thank you to all who participated

Just waiting on the contract for the house I have booked and I'll get my registration sent off.  Any chance you take paypal?  Thanks again for putting this all together AK!

Sorry, Ben, no PayPal. 

I'm glad you're coming!   

No worries amigo.  And I'm super stoked to be coming too...all those years of being a 'maybe' will be done with!  I had to sell it to the wife as a combo trip-  fishing and mini family vacation, so we rented a house with my cousin and her family.  We'll have 4 boys in the house, ages 2,3,4 & 5.  Time on the water will be cherished!

Excellent!  Your kids and the cousins are gonna have a blast - bring the Boogie Boards!  They're never too young to get wet and sandy.   

Finally I'm in---registration in mail tomorrow.

Damn!  If I keep pouring swimbaits, I'll need to rent a trailer to transport them by the time GS-6 gets here. 

Check this out - A blurb I saw on another board very recently:

For what it's worth, I've been hearing reports about lots of salmon being incidently caught at the Cove by the nearshore commercial rockfish fleet and sporties dragging for Callies and threshers. Some fish estimated in the mid teens.

So, some history:  salmon come closer to shore along the coast at Shelter Cove; the ocean salmon season used to start there the second weekend in February - I've had days years past in March where all the chovies in a bag got bit by salmon - granted, they're usually smaller (6 to 10 pounds), but there are bigger fish too.  Anyway, early sign of lots of salmon bodes very well for us.   



Here are some pics of a trough I'm making.   

Sweet trough Eric !!

Thats one Bulky trough my man. Cant wait will get you the registration next time we fish. Hopefully next week the river may be cruddy again by then.
Im looking forward to getting a salmon at GS6

how many camp sites does shelter cove have? Is there any worry about running out of sites?

We had quite a party last year will plenty of room to spare. Get on it dude

Should be plenty of sites.  I'm bringing the Team Something Jayco up.  There will be 4 of us in our site.

If the weather is like last year's it will handle it better than my tent.

Eric,
  Just wondering when I order extra shirts can I order a 4t and 6t size for my boys? Let me know since I told them they would get a shirt this year too.
Thanks
