Yeah I saw that water and it looks oh so juicy... I haven't been able to get into it yet, always full of people...

I'm happy to donate some money, but I've never caught a fish on derby day and I doubt things would be different now :)

Cheers,
Nicole

Well I also went to the tackle shop that I shop at and Randy from Hatch Matcher's fly and tackle in Maple Ridge has also donated a drift rod. It is a 10'6" medium action Protac Highwater series with IM8 graphite.


On top of that I will be donating 10 of my marabou steelhead jigs in various colours that I have just finished tying up.

Here's what I'm talking!!!...I got a bear suit for someone....( not naming names)  They're going to put it on...scare all the guys out of the good runs...I come along behind, fish the run, scoop the gear and any dropped steelhead..( Remember, throw it to the bear, and you will get away!!!)....donate what I find to the prize table...and hopefully no one has pepper sprey..or someone will be wearing dark glasses at the presentation!!!! 8) ::)

If  Nicole has never caught a fish in a derby the laws of averages have got to be with her. I've never caught a fish in any derby I've entered so it's prime time for me too. Next derby for me will have to be the Cultus Lake pike minnow derby if I get skunked in this one.  :D :D :D
