What days are you going up to the Zipper in April. I'd like to know, so if I'm up there, I can meet you in person. Thanks.

Arrive p.m. Saturday 22 April and fishing round the clock (nearly!) through Sunday 30th. Fly out Monday. Will be staying nearest to airport, and would love to hear the famous Elk Bellow.

Another person you want to meet if you don't already know him is Dave the Savage, a legendary steelhead spanker in terms of stamina, intensity and numbers hooked. Larry and he will be in town around 17-24.

We need to get Robbo back up there, but he's undecided. Something about child support payments if he's apprehended in Alaska . . . .

Hope to see you there!

Dave the Savage lives about 2 hours from me. I am going to be fishing with him and Larry, and a couple of other guys. We are also staying at the same place. Look me up in the bar on the night of 4-22. I'll show you a few tricks when you get there. The lungs are all clear for the elk bugle.
