I attended Dave Vedder's seminar at Three Rivers Marine. What a presentation! He really simplified a few things that I thought were complicated. He also added some humor to it. Thanks to JR I have started fishing local rivers again. I used to about 8 years ago when my oldest boy was 13. I took him to Reiter on a bitter cold morning. We were standing in the river in the last hole before the whitewater. I was getting bumps. My son, Nate, got his gear tangled up. Of course it was combat fishing. The guy above me-15 feet away, listened to me tell Nate where there was a fish sitting. I was helping Nate retie his gear. This guy cast his gear into that hole and pulled out the fish I had found for my son. I glared him down wondering if I should deck him or leave. What a jerk. We left. I hadn't really river fished much again and went to strictly saltwater, other than guide fishing on the Peninsula. I am back at it and having fun and my younger son is doing it too at 14. Haven't been back to Reiter. JR and Dave's seminar got my blood going again. There are a lot of things that Dave made simple. He is also a great guy. Looking forward to seeing you on Feb 10th. By the way if you don't have time to go home and have dinner, spaghetti and garlic bread will be available for $3.00 a plate.
