Title: ~~~Name that River/Run Contest~~~
Post by: Randog on December 05, 2004, 07:04:57 PM: Ok, so since the steelhead season is just days away, I thought I'd kick it off with a little "Name that river and the run" contest. With all the top rods here, this will be a snap.

Here's how it works, I'll post a picture of a certain river and you guess what river it is AND the run.

The prize is as follows,

One bag of previously experiencd swivels (Barrel and Snap) you pick up

Consolation prize - One bag of belly button lint and toe nail clippings (I'll mail)

This ones easy.

Post by: Bantam_50 on December 06, 2004, 10:24:32 PM: itosh, pics kinda small...but I'd say that looks like Johnny's hole (aka below the abutment ) on the Upper Vedder. 8)
Title: Re: ~~~Name that River/Run Conest~~~
Post by: DragonSpeed on December 07, 2004, 01:51:16 PM: How about the full sized one then:

Post by: ahans on December 07, 2004, 02:05:32 PM: Ohhh man...that's Rodney's prime coho honey hole. Look what you got yourself into itosh.......splashing someone's favorite hole all across the internet ;).
Title: Re: ~~~Name that River/Run Conest~~~
Post by: itosh on December 07, 2004, 02:12:17 PM: Thanks for the blowup DS! :D :D
And no it is not Rodney's honey hole....
It is a well known river but it not heavily discussed on this forum....
Pic was taken in about August and the tree should be a giveaway (I think)....

Shane

Edit** - Rodney has DQ'ed himself from this one!! ;D ;D

Post by: DaveD on December 07, 2004, 02:43:01 PM: Skagit?
Title: Re: ~~~Name that River/Run Conest~~~
Post by: itosh on December 07, 2004, 03:33:36 PM: And we have the correct answer courtesy of DaveD!!
It is the Skagit, but I can't remember which day site it is taken from.
I guess it would be an easy guess for a flyfisher.

Shane
Title: Re: ~~~Name that River/Run Conest~~~
Post by: ahans on December 07, 2004, 03:45:28 PM: I was so wrong.....sure looked very similar to run on the Vedder.
Title: Re: ~~~Name that River/Run Conest~~~
Post by: DaveD on December 07, 2004, 03:57:04 PM: Who can tell me how to post a pic? If anyone can help me out I have a couple for you.

Cheers Dave

Post by: Randog on December 07, 2004, 04:22:54 PM: OK, last picture. This ones a stumper. If this one dosen't get the steelhead blood flowin' nothing will. Don't be distracted by the grumpy looking guy.

Up for grabs, one film canister full of last years bait bags. I was stupid enough to open it and give her a sniff :o UPU

Post by: 2:40 on December 07, 2004, 04:39:49 PM: Thinking Stamp as well, lower part?
Title: Re: ~~~Name that River/Run Conest~~~
Post by: Randog on December 07, 2004, 04:44:36 PM: Damn you guys are GOOD!! OK, so Ivan and 2:40 Gordie split the bait bags.

The answer is = Moneys Pool on the Upper Stamp. I'm suprised Iron Noggin wasn't all over that one ;D

Title: Re: ~~~Name that River/Run Contest~~~
Post by: 2:40 on December 07, 2004, 09:03:57 PM: Only been on the Stamp once in my life.

How lucky was that? I honestly thought "Stamp" before reading Ivan's guess.

Beauty river.
