I'd like to be in on one of those trips too! I'm not old (at least i don't feel like it) but i am a little crusty. I've got a sled that'll fish 3. So, let me know how the first trip goes, I'll be in the umpqua for a while. We might be able to meet up and split a trip in my boat? I'm in Coburg, so i pretty much drive right through your turf to get to the slaw.
