hey guys,
well it looks like were in for a great event, im glad to see ol george c. from ohio is in for this trip. id like to see some more neighbors join in on the thrills that we will embark on. the guys from canada ought to get in on the action as well. i think if you guys can be flexible with the date you will be more successfull in hitting the hendrickson hatch , i look forward to this hatch as it is right up there with the drakes and the hex.as soon as we get a 65 plus day and as long as it stays warm we will be in, as we all know the weather can change in a day from 70 - 35 degrees , it is my guess though that the weekend after the opener and the following weekend will be prime. but again all depends on weather. if you guys miss out i will be here to catch the fish .hehehe sorry i couldnt help it.i will keep you all posted on the conditions . i have also found that after the opener the mainstream is a little less crowded, but as some of you know iam very partial to the north branch, and that is where i spend the majority of my time. but iam willing to venture into new stretches ,
cant wait to meet you all

Sign up by February 28. If we keep it under 12 tiers, we'll do 2 per
participant (12 tiers = 24 flies). If we go higher than that, we'll do
1 per participant (15 tiers = 15 flies). Flies will be due 1 week prior
to the rendezvous (date TBD). Only rule on the flies is that they must
be from a prominent Michigan hatch, (drakes, hendricksons, sulfurs, hex,
etc.), dry or emerger.

chance I get, I go fishing, or swap stories with fishermen to get the
