GS8 - Only one brief capsizing reported - WTG, Everybody!

I will have some decals at gs8 if anyone is interested.

I'll be down for a Salmon, Striper and Trout...

I also ordered my 2014 load of Big hammers today.  Everything from 3" to 9"

Out of curiosity Jim, where do you get yours from?  I'm looking to place an order as well.

I like http://CharkBait.com  Nice people, great website and a fantastic selection.  I've looked a lot and the prices on the 5 packs are the best online too.

When I buy from Charkbait I buy 100 at a time. Sell a few to friends and get a great price initially.

Contact Jbaker as well that's who I go through

I think Jeff quit selling them, but contact him to know for sure.

We are now set at 218 participants unless there's a freak April 15th postmark that shows up tomorrow.  ChuckE's April 15th postmark out of San Leandro was a surprise yesterday - the USPS workers there must not be infiltrated by NCKA yet!   

I'm stoked to welcome you all to this year's event.  Tomorrow the shirt and hoodie order gets placed after design work is finalized with my graphics guy.  I'll post up a preview after that.

The coming weeks will have info flowing here, so please watch the headline for new stuff to review.

Slacker!

GS8.1
For anyone who didn't get their entry in over the past 3 months, you now have a chance to win something at GS!! 

Send in your $25 late, and I'll still get you a shirt (guaranteed for first 10 only) but no other schwag unless you're lucky.  I'll accept these up to May 1st, but after that I won't even answer your PM!

The prize:  Six hours OTW guided trip by Abking out of Shelter Cove, Trinidad or Humboldt Bay for salmon this year.  Rockfish and lingcod fallback, halibut potential, high mileage guaranteed.

You just have to have the highest late registrant score AND beat my score.   

This is not a joke, and I'll post it separately too.  NO DOUBLE ENTRIES (can't be in GS and GS8.1)

I also ordered my 2014 load of Big hammers today.  Everything from 3" to 9"

Yea sorry guys, too busy to keep up with the tax man. In order to sell them I had to use my resellers license that I no longer have or want. So yea I'm out of that game for now. Sorry, the Charkbait guys are great.

Just wanted to say Thank You Eric!

Wow! that's a huge list! I concur with Joe... Thanks Eric!
