You guys should email Rick and pre-register and pay him somehow if you're not able to make it to RFT.

Why not set up something with On The Way or another local to the river Bus. for those that find Reaction out of the way?
Im sure they wouldnt mind a few extra customers coming through there doors.

The biggest reason is because I can't be everywhere at the same time, it is too much work for me to set up multiple sign ins, aswell as get to the river and get the weigh in and lunch etc setup, I have already offered to sign up some people over the internet and have them pay me at the weigh in... I believe this will take care of any problems there may be... for most people RFT is a convenient location to sign up in the morning...

Thx Rodney for setting up that page !!  ;D

    Well guys and gals, I guess it is time to start getting a little more organized :)
it would be great if we could start posting who exactly is going to attend and what kind of food item you are able to bring... as well as tables chairs, firewood, tarps if we need them etc ..... as was mentioned in previous posts, if you are unable to make it to RFT for the morning sign in would you please send me an e-mail at thickrick@bodybuilders.com and let me know... as long as you pre register with me I will accept your entry fee at the time of the weigh in/ lunch..

    Once again I would like to throw out a huge thank you to all of those who are donating prizes and time to this event... I believe we have chosen a great organization to support with our $$, an organization that benefits all of us as sportsfishermen !!!!

cheers TH

Hey Rick you can count me in. I had a great time last year meeting up with everyone even though it was so damn cold in the early morning hours. Constantly had to break
ice from the eyes of my rod if I lingered to long but it was all worth it to meet the gang and see a few familiar faces. Last year I brought pastries, cake and a variety of chips and at this point I have'nt the foggiest as to what I will bring this time around. Do want to thank you though Rick and all the other volunteers for all the work and time you're investing in this outing. I will let you know within the next week what I will bring Rick, thanks again. :)

I am going to get some tickets out to RFT in the next few days for anyone that wishes to prepay, you will still have to show up on the morning of Jan 20th to validate your ticket unless you are on of the people who makes special arrangements with me...

Just so I know where is the cedar run?

Also for the fly-division do you just skip trying to catch a fish and go straight to the draw? ;)
