Hey Kevin, What do you fish for? One of these seasons I will have to come up to your neck of the woods to fish for salmon and stripers during their run into the american river. I used to have a boat too, but sold it for a mustang . Still have a jetski though and just dewinterized that yesterday. Erik

No buddy they are OFF for sure. It still makes me mad,they won't respond to any more of my emails about it either.I even talked to the that runs HAN events.We had about a 30min talk.He said NO it's not going to happen. Yea those hot spots go fast.Thats one heck of an out broad you have.
