Hi all !

   I hope you are all staying cool and maybe even catching some fish.

   I recently took a trip to the Deschutes River for some R&R and fishing, unfortunately the fishing was nil and the weather was 105 degrees, the water was about 73 and the fish were dying from the heat, even the warm water fish were not biting. Any way a lesson learned.

   Just a reminder that the Chapter Picnic is on the 25th at North Santiam State Park and should begin about 11:00am, we will have the main course of hamburgers and hotdogs with all the trimmings and hopefully a big variety of potluck dishes from the attendees. if you are bring your kids or grand kids I will be bringing our fishing game. bring your poles if you want to try for the elusive Steelhead or Salmon that are lurking in our waters, all in all it should be a fun time with good friends.

   Hope to see you all there.     Brian
