Yesterday on my way up to meet with Gary I got the call from Shawn the he and the boyz of the wetside were in Start Up and heaed this way for the fun and fishing and that they will be in Twisp. The plan was to fish Davis yesterday, Big Twin today and that they would be on the water by 10AM.
I left here at home at ten to 9 and made my way over the Loop. they had arrived not more then five minutes before me and the wind was blowing at a steady stand out straight flag blowin gale.
Jeff was out in the water on the far side (east) in his small boat, Duke was off walking the shoreline of little twin. Shawn and Dan were unloading their pontoon boat drinkin down the sudds already, while Richard, Dan's dad was sitting in his truck. I parked next to Richard and he and I walked down and talked to Dan and Shawn. While we were talking Dan put a 6 pk on the tool box of the trailer and the wind blew it off and when it hit the ground it blew two cans open spraying sudds all over both Shawn and Dan.
Shawn was telling me that the rest of the party boyz would be joining us in Omak on Tues. Andy, Brian, Rod, and a couple of others, This will be the 20th year for me to be fishing with this group every May and always Mother day weekend either to start or end depends on the weather.
Richard and I decided to go get a cup of coffee and hope the wind would die down because neither of us wanted to fight it fishing if suppost to be fun and that wind didn't look a bit fun. After getting coffee we sat in my truck and watched the three of them fight the wind. About 11 we see Jeff headed for shore enough was enough and he was out of there. Duke took off while we were gone for coffee he had enough too. Rich and I caught up on good old times and I headed home at 12:30 .
