One more day til I head out...

Well, Time has flown and the week I never thought would arrive is now here... I have been swamped lately with taking care of loose ends and such that I haven't been on much, but I wanted to give a final official farewell to everyone a day in advance so I can read a few of the responses before I leave

Thursday I head for Edmonds, where I'll stay until saturday morning which is when I fly out. Hopefully I'll be able to keep in touch throughout the summer, but I'm not fully sure on that little detail yet

Hope you all have a great summer, bonk the hell out of some fish, and don't get caught keeping the humpies... in public

Later to everyone that I wont be seeing between now and saturday!

T

Good luck man...should be fun...Return with a bunch of pictures...

Have a blast TBird look forward to fishing with you in the future, so don't get eatin by a bear (or maybe the bears should worry!). Enjoy the fishing and the scenery, wish I was joining you.

Peace,
B

Good luck and have fun, I would love to be up there doing the guide thing if it were'nt for those darn responsibilities that I've gotten myself into (house payments, and student loan payments, ect....). Like my Dad says we never really get ahead in life, We just reach a higher quality of broke. Have fun.-T

Have a great trip, maybe you can shack up with Big Stick???

Good Luck. I have to agree with Jerry. If there are smiles on the clients then there will be smiles on you. We look forward to hear all the crazy stories and hopefully see a few pics. Be Safe

Don't forget the bear spray.

STRIKE ZONE

Friends don't let friends fish for "HUMPY'S".

Dont forget your nudy mags bro!! Have fun harvest one for me!

Don't forget the good hat!

Better yet, leave them at home and pick up some mags with females in them.

I know the guy to girl ratio is probally lower up in the tundra, but T-Bird, I think you can do better than "Big Stick". Find yourself a good bush woman.
Have fun man!

C22 : I will have some internet access.. definitely email, and the occasional board sighting

Strike Zone : LMFAO....

KK: Done

Karry: I'll be stopping in tomorrow on the way out of town for a hat, broseph

Bucket: The hat is on my head as we speak, and I wouldn't leave town without it!

Sol: My reply to that little comment was picked up earlier today... You'll get my reply on friday

We'll be waiting for your return with many, many stories. Maybe next year, we can do the Halibut trip all over again......BTW, I really am sorry for the rainwater.

Steve

See you on Friday night Tbig.

LMAO Steve.. It was no biggie! I was just over at John Herrling's place earlier today and we were discussing the water conditions that day and how screwed up it was out there... I told him that if I could forecast that whole trip, I'd gladly do it all over again in a heartbeat, even knowing the consequences

As far as I'm concerned, count me in next year for a couple of days I'll look forward to fishing with you again


Dave: Lookin forward to it buddy!

What bar in Edmonds are ya drinkin' at ???

Can't wait to see you Big Bird, right now I'm looking out the window and the Sound is flat glass calm and the tide is wayyyyyyy out. Lot of water coming back in for tonights high tide. Looks like we'll be fishing soon as you show up........beer in one hand rod in the other.

No DUI's here either, it's all off one block downhill to the bar The walk down is always easy......it's the walk back that gets ya!

rognsue........no bar in Edmonds, but you guys are welcokme to join us at my place and/or the local watering hole.....very close to Edmonds. I am watching the ferry go across right now

PM for details

Don't bother bringing any rods or gear. Nothing to catch there but these little shakers.

Hey, where's my beer?

now dont let those locals fool you....chlyamidia is a real danger when your not close to a hospital. so if you start feeling faint, light headed, hungry, tired or lethargic.....dont be a fool....wrap your tool.

Don't worry bird man....we'll party like rockstars on friday and send you to alaska hung over.
Tim

hey tom, sounds like your gonna have a big send off. wished i'd be there to see ya, but, gotta get ready to go down to the big "C" with the family. don't forget to pack all your chemicals,(bug spray. sun block, tequila, etc.) and most of all at least try to get a word out to us and have a safe trip up........

hope to get a hold of you later when you get back, that's of course if you want to come back

Robert

Damn right we will, Lennox... I'm over here at Kid's place suckin a beer down as I type this... Life is good

Robert,

Best of luck to you guys down there! Sorry we didn't get the opportunity to meet up over memorial day... But for sure, we'll get together when I get back and I'll take ya down the river

P.S.: You might want to talk to parker about PFD's... I think he just did a big comparison before he bought his... Not to worry ya or anything

you are sooooo bad. i'm sittin here and trying to get my kids riggins together, sober. in need of new glasses and trying to tie knots is the worse thing one can do this late at nite. keep this up and you'll miss your flight/boat.

Robert

I dont believe in missing planes or boats Even if I have my head hanging off the side of the plane throwing up, I'll be on it

Parker, that's funny seeing that picture because I was just telling T' that I should post this pic o' Parker and lo' n' behold you already posted it. This morning was epic with intense predatory activity and baitfish going apesh!t everywhere with fish slashing at them. Tommy blew his chance at a nice one last night when it spit the hook at the beach and I mean right at the beach.

If you are coming to my place tonight:

BRING YOUR OWN GEAR, I have lures but not enough rods to go round. A light spinning rod or baitcaster will do the trick. If you can cast 30 feet, then you will hookup. Very easy as you can see even Parker can do it We will fish if demand is there because the fish are there and it will be a shootout with Tom kicking all our asses. That boy can jig like a mofo.

Lates and C Ya'll tonight. We are going candlefish hunting on the extreme minus tide after we get some shuteye.

hey tom. have a good one up there. and take pics. unfortunantly i wont be able to make it out tonight. but well get together when you get back and go chase some fish. be safe man.
lata jake

You're killin me Jake... We'll get out and fish when I get back, I suppose

i know i wanted to go. just ahve alot of crap i need to take care of and get in line. sounds like it will be fun. we will meet up tho when ya get back ...october? should be about the time i take my boat back up on the peninsula for fall fishing. sory again about not making it to the big goodbye. have fun up there.
