Saturday, June 17 for a great fishing contest at Loc Lomond

Hey, Mark,

Is this derby on Saturday the 16th or Sunday the 17th?

Big J, guys and details, we had his conversation at Mendo 

I think Fathers Day is on Sunday so I think he just got his dates mixed up.

Yeah, I've noticed!  I'll be there no matter what day it is--not that I'll catch anything but Mark and Margaret (Kayak Connection) are super people and have been good to me over the years. See ya there, Papa Bill?

Tim......if you win another kayak, I'm gonna quit breathing air 

I think I'm in... it will be only my third time kayak fishing, and I've only got a clunky SIK, and no FF, but I'm feeling lucky and this is a great excuse to flex some beginer's luck and get a new SOT yak...
