Akking , thanks again for your private email explaining why you said what you did! So I will try to show this board WHY I wrote about the "traffic jam at Blue Creek". You asked me in your above post to post something new. You said; "you are really beginning to sound like a broken record, why not post something new for a change". Fair enough!

They say that pictures are worth a million words, so if these pics come out (taken at 9:30 Sunday), they will certainly tell the story. At the very lease, they will represent "something new for a change". Then maybe the poor uninformed fishermen who hasn't been there or has not yet been "harden" to this type of a "combat fishery", may get lucky and choose not to his take his family (or boat) into this type of jeopardy!

For years now, many of us have heard about the "Blue Creek combat zones", but have not really seen why it has been called so. Remember, the parking area is only about 8 acres, and appears to be jammed packed with about 243 rigs. It pretty safe to "assume" that each rig probably will represent at lease 2 persons per rig on the average. That would mean that you are now looking at over 486 fishermen attempting to catch…how many fish???

During the Christmas through New Years weekend, it is almost certain that there will be at lease another hundred or more rigs there each day. Like I said earlier, is it really worth it???

I am not at my best when it comes to posting pictures on the web, so I will make an attempt to show you just how crowded Blue Creek is. I hope it comes out (but don't count on it!)! Since I can't review the picture on my post, please be patience, us self taught guys take a little longer to learn this stuff!







Most of these pitures don't show or reveal that many of these cars and rigs are 3 cars deep!
