I've been listening to Jeffrey Foucalt this week and have been blown away. If you haven't given this guy some time, please do. We featured him on episode 7, and he's worth the effort to find his stuff.
The opener, as always, was a lot of fun. It doesn't matter whether we catch fish or not because we're all about ritual, but this one was quite productive. The crew on the Kinni this year included Ken Hansen, Ben Brasser, Jim Paatalo, Neil Nelson, Roy Erickson, Chris Silver and yours truly. We caught a fair number of fish, especially when the water warmed up a bit and the sun hit the water full on. Roy laid claim to most fish, having hit the pot of gold in a sunny run. He took over 20 fish, and that my friends, is impressive.
I planned on fishing today, Sunday, with brother Jim, but was waylaid with school work. The weather was quite a bit nicer than yesterday, so I'm interested in how people did on the Rush. Please let us know.
On another note, I finished the first draft of my long suffering novel today. My goodness, I never thought I'd make it. I'm in a mood to party. Unfortunately, it's Sunday and I'm mentally exhausted. I'm afraid to read what I wrote today in fear it all sucks. But hey, I actually did it. It's amazing how fast eight years goes.
Some of you are still having issues accessing the site. That should be resolved soon.
Let us know how your opener was.

Have seen very few fishermen here on the Rush, but someone from TU stopped to buy 3 dozen eggs here on Saturday, so we're all for that! A quiet opener here on the Rush. Last night I spotted a beautiful flock of crows wafting out over the river going upstream, and an eagle headed upstream to roost. Haven't seen a flock of crows so large here before. Careful out there, lads, and pass on safe fish-handling knowledge to those you come across, you know how it's done!
Where can I buy these eggs? I assume they are farm fresh. I'm also from TU so I hope I qualify.
