So, before I decide on this trip, just a quick couple of questions:
-Who get's the comp from the lodge for booking this trip? I'd just like to know who's trip I'd be subsidizing. Who gets the free trip? You? Stam? Both? Neither? No one?
-Since it's a "PP" trip, what bone did you toss to Bob? I don't seem to recall seeing any advertising up on this site for the Katmai Lodge?

Dave,
Can you detail the rough cost for us?
Airfare to/from?
Lodge rate?
Anything else you can think of?
Thanks. I'd love to do that trip.

So, before I decide on this trip, just a quick couple of questions:
-Who get's the comp from the lodge for booking this trip?
No one!
I'd just like to know who's trip I'd be subsidizing.
Why do you care?
Who gets the free trip?
Again no one.
I go free every year. Has nothing to do with who comes with me. I often bring a friend for free. Probably not you.
You? Stam? Both? Neither?
Again, No one
-Since it's a "PP" trip, what bone did you toss to Bob? I don't seem to recall seeing any advertising up on this site for the Katmai Lodge? Yes I did run this idea by Bob when I did with another lodge. He was fine with it. But I wonder why that is any of your business?

What Dan asked....
Definetly intrested. Airfare is about $500.00 . I usually use F.F. mileage. If you cna use miles its best to do so as RT air to King Salmon is getting pricier every year. Lodge details including price are here. http://www.katmai.com/Will try to answer any other questions next week. I leave tomorrow for this destination. http://www.tugboatcruise.com/

Cool Dave, have fun on your next adventure...................  I'd be interested also, but I'll need to borrow a sleeping bag.......... Yeah, I know about your sleeping bag issues. You should go. We mentioned you several times as we were yarfing on coho with our fly rods. Maybe you could show me how to spey cast and end up with the same number of pieces as I begin with. I seem to be missing someting there. Serioulsy, I bet you would love wogging those coho. I took a friend a few years ago who fell in love with the Wog and fished nothing else the entire week. We who were less pure caught less fish but he sure had fun!

I'm interested Dave, after all my wogs have already been there................seems sort of a shame I haven't..............  I can bring 'extra' spey rods, and maybe they'll be in the same number of pieces when you're done, maybe not. I loved wogging on the K-Tok a couple of years ago, something about all those V wakes and missed takes has you shaking in anticipation one second, and laughing your a$$ off the next while yelling 'DID YOU SEE THAT........... the whole time................
