Do any of you guys have RV sites 5 6 8 or 9 on Friday night?  The oyster feed will be at ski pro jerry's  site 7 along the road near th gazebo like last year. I'm thinking that the stretch there would be a good high traffic spot for a gear swap at that time, immediately following the safety gathering.


The gear swap has previously been held in the NW corner and has t been well attended.   If there is interest and space, we could probably do well to have it in that location.

Thoughts?

Are you taking oyster orders like last year? I can be sure to bring more dipping sauce.  :smt007

Oysters like last year except this year I can get Pacifics and kumos. Not sure of exact prices yet but pacifics are much larger and are great on the grill. Kumos are preferable to Pacifics if you are eating raw imo but we should have options. I'll know more next month.

Luis, trade a blue kokatat for an orange and black one ??

Sounds like a plan!

And, more importantly, it is to vouch that you at least know what you are doing on the salt.

That was totally my understanding.  While fishing at GSX would be awesome, my lack of equipment and experience in the salt will keep me on dry land.  With that said I'm still looking forward to the event pending unforeseen issues with work deadlines (construction)
Based upon your demeanor and generosity at Crabfest  I would be happy to work with you and can't think of any piece of equipment I wouldn't be able to provide depending on your comfort and interest.

That's a very generous offer, thank you.  I'll take you up on that, but I have to get some seat time.  Ordering a plb today and swinging by a local dive shop tomorrow for a farmer john.

I'll deal with the paperwork this evening.

My Filipino freinds make fun on me for my sensitive gut.  I don't think anyone else was affected by the oysters.  They were yummy.

Fektavious?!!  Wow...  Welcome back, buddy.  :smt001

So I haven't been updating the roster with a new post this year.  I'm updating it by modifying the first post in the thread.  It's making for a very quiet GS thread!  :smt001 - I wanted to do a cracking up emoji there, but since getting Windows 10 (involuntarily) I can't do emojis... 

Anyway, I haven't been promoting GS this year, and I do have a goal of shrinking the event down to just those who know about it or who have heard about it and want to be part of the vibe. 

Better chance at a couple kayaks for whoever does show.  (cracking up emoji again)

82 on March 10 last year

71 as of March 22 this year.

That's not down all that much, and it's going to be a blast with the folks that do come. I get excited for GS every year and with the salmon opener coming up its only going to get worse/better.

Better, for sure.  :smt004  (I can guess numbers to put behind ":smt00...")

You can uninstall and return to the previous OS within, I believe, 90 days. I will not use Windows 10 until both of my Win 7 machines crap out.
