Rogue 1/30

greg · by **greg** on Sat Jan 30, 2010 8:00 pm

Well I won't ruin Chad, Daniel, and the looney tunes report, but that's the first time I have ever heard people call a boat of float fishermen, a bunch of crazy people. Every person I talked to said yeap they were float fishing, I had one old guy ask me if "I was one of them." lol. Even though I fished by myself the whole time, it was actually one of the most enjoyable times I've gone fishing. Seen a beautiful native.

Good to finally meet you John, Chad, and Daniel. And very nice to see you again Jon.

John, I figure I was using about 3/8ths to a half ounce under that float. Definitely the float I'll be using from the shore. Boat will be west coast floats.

Oh and if you wanna know how much I float fished today... My shoulder is like dead now. :))

LOONEY TOONS!!!!! =))

Thats a great one. Hey wait a minute...... #-o

thats me. Had a blast today. We laughed and gave crap to each other ALL DAY. FYI don't let Daniel (archer) try to net your fish after you throw your jig three feet in front of his in the drift and then hook a fish :))

He forgot to let go of the hoop when he netted it. Might as well used a huge pizza spatula!!! It fell back into the water, got it back to the boat but he redeemed himself on the secong attempt =))

It was a pretty funny. Unfortunately i've done it before

Thanks for a great day on the water Reeltech, Hollywood, Archer. We need to do that again. Greg that photo looks like a nice 8 or 9 pound fish, was that the one the guy pulled out from in front of you??? Why didn't you catch it????? Good to see ya again. You get yours soon enough!!!!

Yea, I like the challenge of the pizza spatula for netting fish, unfortunately, John didn't find it as amusing as I did

Thanks for another great day on the water. I had a blast.

greg · by **greg** on Sat Jan 30, 2010 10:55 pm

I swear that fish look more like 10 to me. :))

He thought 12.

And yes, the one in front of me.

Oh and sorry about taking off so fast. Ended up getting stuck behind a dang tractor from the store to the farm on Riverbanks. Was like 15 minutes late... There were still people fishing the Applegate too.

I had a blast today guys. Always a pleasure fishing with Daniel and Chad......and of course Jonny Boy :ymapplause:

Comedy all day in the boat.....we were the wacko group of laughing float fishermen

Quite a well orchestrated demonstration of water flogging prowess today.
4 guys standing up........flinging float gear with rods 9'6" to 10'6" in length all day long........ firing at targets all over the river.......in a boat so loaded with rods and gear that it looked like a floating tackle store tent sale......without getting into a single tangle or getting in each others way :ymapplause:

The day went WAAAAY too fast as always

Thanks guys for a fantastic day $\M/$ $\M/$ $\M/$ $\M/$

Nice meeting you too Greg. No need to be shy around us.......you should know that

FISH THE BRIGHT JIGS IN YOUR BOX that you showed me........success is just around the corner

greg · by **greg** on Sat Jan 30, 2010 11:45 pm

I wasnt being shy... Im naturally humble most of the time.... If you guys werent hauling butt into robertson I was gonna yell something at you but figured since you were, you wouldnt hear me.

So.... Did Jon make you sit on the bow the whole day? $\M/$

=))

I will tie one of those jigs on for next time!

That picture above is not the correct one, here are the images of the day before Reeltech got a hold of them!! Reeltech and Toybox were kind enough to let Daniel and I get both fish today and Jon did not low hole anyone today either. =))

What a fun day on the water, lots a laughing going on out there. :))

We will definitely be doing it again and next time we will let you guys have some fish! ^:)^

Team " I aint afraid of no NANNER" had a pretty good weekend on the Middle Rogue.
All fish were hooked on RGB (really good bait) with an OCC (odd colored corkie).
Pics to follow.

THE REEL TECH · by **THE REEL TECH** on Sun Jan 31, 2010 11:50 pm

Heard you guys had a great weekend out there Barry!!! No doubt with you and George in the boat, some chrome was gonna get landed

More good fishing to come!! Its just getting into February!!! $\M/$ $\M/$ $\M/$

greg · by **greg** on Mon Feb 01, 2010 12:42 am

Applegate should start getting good too!!!

Hopefully the guy I told Jon bout wont start bugging out again. :))

Coastal · by **Coastal** on Mon Feb 01, 2010 11:41 pm

Looks like everyone had a great time. And there's some great pics too. Glad to see how much fun fishing can really be!

hollywood · by **hollywood** on Tue Feb 02, 2010 12:23 pm

People where talking about our boat all over the river!! :))

I guess we sounded like a bunch of crazy, laughing comedians on the water. All fun out there, thats for sure. =))

THE REEL TECH · by **THE REEL TECH** on Tue Feb 02, 2010 8:03 pm

The only complaint I have about the great day we had was that every boat that passed us recognized the two celebrities in the boat, Chad and Daniel ^:)^

. It interfered with our fishing time having guys pull up on the side of the boat and ask for autographs. Chad and Daniel were busy signing the cork handles of everyones rods B-)

Every time I looked at the bank, there was a paparazzi camera sticking out of the blackberry bushes.....those guys will do anything for a photo op. One guy even jumped into the river and tried to swim over to the boat wearing a pink wetsuit with "I LOVE MICRO JIGS" written all over it........we had to beat him off of the side of the boat with the fish whacker :))

Daniel took the high road and drew a line in the sand when at the ramp.....a guy built like a freight train asked him to autograph his pink worm :))

hollywood · by **hollywood** on Tue Feb 02, 2010 8:19 pm

Thats funny stuff right there! Well we should lose our celebrity status being out fished like that.

Our time will come on the applegate I have a feeling!

archer · by **archer** on Tue Feb 02, 2010 8:53 pm

That's funny stuff right there RT.

Hold the phone! This is some hilarious commentary right here !!! The best line is. . . . Pink Worm!! :))

Wow John.

Wow. :-?

I saw that same guys standing real close to Greg when we drove by in the boat.

greg · by **greg** on Fri Feb 05, 2010 12:09 am

Very funny Chad.

If you're talking about me John... I aint built like a "freight train."

THE REEL TECH · by **THE REEL TECH** on Fri Feb 05, 2010 7:45 pm

Greg,
No I wasnt talking about you, I was referring to the ripped body builder wearing the Daisy Dukes and the half t-shirt and the purple pom pom socks that Chad saw standing next to you when we drove by
