Still time to talk your soon to be nephew about the important things in life, like fishing.  Maybe you can get him to change the date.

I tried to tell them GSX was on my calendar waaaay before I received their invitation!!  They should have consulted with me first!

Normally I don't do weddings and funerals...heck I am not even going to my own funeral.

Just get one of those card board cutouts like they did for Craig at Albion. It can fill in for you at the wedding  :smt001

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.

Work is definitely getting in the way.  Basically zero seat time, no experience in the salt and swamped at work.  I finally got all of my safety gear to go with the yak but no time to use it.  The best I can hope for is to just drive up for the day but I'm off the water.

Met my wife 34 years ago and got married 27 years ago today.  Took the day off from work and leaving in a few to do a service call.  uggg

You mean past years?  There's no pic of this year's - I do the design when I make the order.

I'll say this - it'll be bold and simple in order to make the black on black work.  NCKA "Linghead Vector" on the front as always, and at least the "Yakker Image" on the back - maybe minimal lettering like just "GSX"...  The hats - Yakker Image with GSX.  That's what I'm feeling.  ("That's all I have to say about that" - Chief Ten Bears from Dances With Wolves  :smt004)

I want to participate in this event, I need a sponsor for myself and my buddy Brett.
we both have years of paddle experience and have we are both certified divers with international down time.
I have a ok prowler big game, he has a Old Town Predator.
my equipment is a Icon 73 VHF, and sonar gps.
we both live 15 minutes from Pyramid lake home to the world class Lahontan Cutthroat trout.
I've been trolling lures 2-3 days a week some weeks everyday. when you have 20-50 hookups in a day well I need say no more about that addiction.

I lived in Fortuna for 32 years b4 moving to Reno. Have been an outdoorsman for all my adult life.
I have not caught a salmon with my kayak , but I have caught a 10 pound cutthroat , and have dive from it for abs and have speared fish from it.
looking forward to more ocean fishing with it.
All my 10" abalone have come from Humboldt county.
gonna get another one this year, anybody want to go?
would like to get to know the like minded folks in this community.
If you would like to help me with a sponsorship please give me a call
775-750-8153
Thanks

Hey Eric,

Was reading earlier posts about your hike and dive to Gitchell cr. sounds like a great time.
I have to leave Sunday, but the last time I was there it was the last year you could drive to gitchell.
I brought my son and the quad. I hiked him to big flat to show him my play ground when we lived in Fortuna.
when I was 20 I hike from the trailhead to shipman cr. shot a 3 point buck and packed it back to gitchell were some guys gave me a lift back.
that weekend with my son it was his first ocean experience he was 8,it was a pretty low slippery tide.
got my abs and a couple of scallops when the tide came in. I would rather dive than pick.
Black sands is were I have many fond memories.
It will be good to go home.
Thanks for putting on such an event and helping me by referring me to the NCKA
Look forward to meeting you

4est
