Anyone got a back seat open?

I'll pay 100% of the fuel expense, plus I'm willing to share gear & lures. (You won't find any $50 swimbaits in my tacklebox.)

Hopefully something gets moved around. Not sure if Al was unaware that the Open is still running that weekend. It is only the 16th year for the Open on Sammamish at that time of year.

When you think you know it all, its time to quit. Knowledge should be gained on every trip.

2 people per team max, 1 is fine. You need a working aerated livewell. Fish that are dead will get you a penalty in weight. If you bring in 5 dead fish, be ready to get escorted off the premises. J/K of course. Puyallup should have a page with the Tourny rules. Dez ?
