Good gravy. You folks act like the rivers never got crowded before the Internet. Heck, I was out at the Snoqualmie on Sunday, river was ripping at 6500 cfs, and it was still crowded. Most of the folks aren't using the Net to figure out that it's time to fish it. They're using a highly secret device, that I'm about to let you in on. It's called "The Calendar".

This is a highly secret tool that I'm letting you in on here. You can use this 'calendar' to predict when fish will be in a river. All you do is mark down the day you catch fish or see fish caught in a river, and then use your calendar to come back next year, AT THE SAME TIME! Amaze your friends! Get one, and you will get the fish, and the girl! I will be happy to provide you a 2001 calendar, for only $49.95, and shipping will even be included!

Seriously, I fish both these rivers, and I'm grateful for the information that winter fish are being caught, as I expected they would, and had heard from three other sources already. Yes, they're going to be zoo'd next weekend, but that should be no surprise to any of us.
