I can tell ya what will happen, you will lose any fish you hook and possibly all your gear. Saw it first hand. Pretty epic battle, wish I would have video taped. And don't tell Scott you missed a fish in a certain hole because he'll walk in behind you and hook up on the first cast, "BASTARD!" Man I'm pissed I'm going to miss this again!

I love the comments from IR. Classic SRC right there!
PS. Sure wish there was video of Carl's winning 3-salt fish battle from the previous year. One of the most epic battles for a fish that I've been a part of, and witnessed.
Imagine that size fish just running everywhere, with two boats in hot pursuit, all the time, beating, splashing, smashing, cussing, and god know's what else at each other. Finally, Bob firing up his backpack leaf blower, sticking the nozzle in the water pointed at the bow of the boat, and power-douching everyone! I think a 100 gallons of water went in to that boat in a few seconds!
Somehow, I took the longest handled net I could find, stuck it all the way down in the river to where I had just a hand on the tip of the handle and the fish somehow swam in to the net.
Fun stuff!

Then imagine Team 188 gallons per minute swooping in and douching all of you into oblivion, netting the fish, and rowing our asses off straight to Wilsons!

Yeah that crappy gas tank from China on the trash pump had a mounting screw poking a hole in it I later found out. But, thats the beauty of the SRC, you can always count on sh!t going sideways!

The Week has finally arrived and with the favorable weather forecast for the week it is shaping up to be an epic SRC...as you all know the Thursday night festivities will be at the SRC house. If you don't know how to get there PM me for directions. Bring some food and beverages to consume/share and there will be a bbq going. Looking forward to seeing you all out in Forks and remember SKY VALLEY SUCKS!

Broke down all our reels and put some super smoothies in them today ... got a few other surprises all fixed up as well. Also dipnetted about 100 fish from the crick and tethered them up in strategic spots, so just bow down to Team PP yet again

Here's a real no-shiatter for you all: I'm adding the last minute touches to the Zombie Spud Cannon. A scope. I'm upgrading the scope with M2-Idaho Spud Technology Turrets. Going all BigStick and stuff. I can hit a barn door at 5 yards now! Suck it, biatches! Gonna sight that scope in to "pain". That's some real Kenny Powers [censored]-smack-talk right there! Boo Yeah! Oh, I mean soooo laffin'.
