WHAT TIME: 6:00 p.m.
WHAT to EXPECT: Food conversation and whatever else may happen - bring your spouse; friendly pooches on leash are allowed too! No speaker...
at this annual gathering so bring your best handshake and introductory line - find out who else is a member of TVTU! Just a laid back evening down by the river! The grills will be working overtime so bring an appetite - silent auction will be happening. Might have a couple of casting challenges as well - or maybe personal instruction if you ask nicely! Come join TVTU and our friends of Clackamas River Chapter and the ladies of The Stonefly Maidens for this months gathering!
WHAT to BRING: a no frills event - bring a side dish or dessert to accompany the TVTU provided entree. Have a favorite beverage? Bring it along and introduce someone else to your tastes!
OUTING!
WHEN: Sunday, July 17, 2016
WHERE: Laurance Lake [Parkdale, OR]
WHAT TIME: mid-morning at the Kinnickinnick Day Use; no real schedule.
WHAT to EXPECT: A good mix of trout species including bull/cutthroat/rainbow and stocked rainbows - with the Bull Trout in existence here do not forget there are special regulations to follow for this lake!
Known to blow from mid-afternoon on this little lake can get exciting - but has several protected areas that fish well until the lake lies down for some on-top action in the late afternoon. There is a concessionaire run day-use and camp area with fee - day use is the typical $5 to park fee. Bring the float tube or rowboat [no motors allowed; there are (2) unimproved gravel launches - they are flat though] and enjoy a day on the water close to Portland.
WHAT to BRING: $5; a flotation fishing device of some sort; a friend. And a camera [or phone] to share some success!
