ON THE WATER FOR OCTOBER (2007)

ON THE WATER FOR OCTOBER                (2007)

 

Yes >> 9/30/40<< today is my Birthday…….67 Big Ones !!!  So…I am going to give myself a treat & keep this month’s column short & sweet !!!

 

SEPTEMBER got our Salmon Fishing Derby off with a Bang !!  Creek Meister Dinsmoor is “On the Board” with a nice 28 lb Salmon. Surveyor Dudley did a great Job with his presentation of “Household Gun Safety”….. In fact, he did such a good job that I came home from his presentation & cleaned my gun…….Remember >><< Always treat any gun you meet as if it LOADED…until you know other wise !!!  We completed the rebuild of the ODFW Schooner Creek Fish Ladder……Special Thanks to a wonderful group on men who completed that TOUGH JOB on time & under budget !!!       WELCOME to our newest Club Member >> Lois Billingham << Not to worry Dick, we still think you are a great guy !!!

 

OCTOBER will continue to be an active Salmon Fishing Month (See the Monthly Schedule). In addition, our Club will be actively involved in supporting the Annual U-DA-MAN Fishing Tournament. Funds raised as a result of this fun event go toward supporting ODFW Salmon Enhancement Programs in Yaquina Bay. At our G.M. Meeting (18 Oct.)…..We will have a most interesting guest speaker (Ms Stephanie Payne) who will be familiarizing us with various “Nasty” Invasive Plants in our Coastal Area. Big Fish Hill will soon begin putting together our winter Schooner Creek Fish Trap Teams. We will also begin doing some planning for our Aquatic Angler Program for 2007/8.

 

Early returns indicate that things are going along well for Electric Bill Furgason………I still think it would be a good idea to continue…“GOOD THOUGHTS”…about him for the next several weeks & don’t forget Kathy too !!!  Jeannine…..We are really tickled to see you doing so well.

 

In Closing, as many of you have told me, these Birthdays continue to come around pretty fast. All in All…I have been truly blessed with a Wonderful Lady, a bunch of Fine Sons, more than a handful of Damn Good Friends & Good Health >><< Now you can’t hardly beat that with a stick……Of course, The DUCKS beating CAL would have been nice too  !!!

 

Well……..That’s the top of the news as it looks from here >><< Hope to see you “On the Water.”                THE HOOK
