Well, it's a desert river, if you compare it to say, the Sacramento river, it's more like a creek. But I have seen some pretty big catfish in there. If I wanted to get rid of a body, I'd have to go to the lake, there was one in there all last summer, yuk!!

If you do, I can ask around and find out the good spots to go.

Unfortunately this is going to happen on a holiday weekend and all holidays are blacklisted for vacations so I will not get to go.

The original Memorial Day is on the 25th. The Calender shows it for both the 25th and the last weekend of the month Apparently my work is going by both on the blacklist

Now my calender only shows the 25. I am going to have to go higher to find out what is what.

How did I miss this thread?

I'm scheduled off that Saturday, but it would be a long hard ride home to get up for work Sunday morning at 0430 hrs. If I can get away with taking a vacation day on Sunday I might just be able to swing a weekend in Fallon. Sounds like fun. Count me in as a maybe.

Bruce, are you going to bring the mobile cigar bar, and the better half too? If I can get the time off I will probably bring my rolling beer den, and my boss too. She's been itchin to get out of the snow.

BTW, I posted a link to this thread on the Norther Cal Chapter.

We are penned in for a family event at that time. I would have to tell some tall tale to escape that obligation...

I don't know about a full conversion, but how about one of these?

Looks good!

My brother-out-law has one of those big coolers that you ride. Set up as a trike with a small motor. Perfect for those hot days at a swap meet. Tows a little trailer.
