don't count out the snake yet...

I have to haul the power drifter to the mothership in Idaho Falls for some work if anyone wants to fish around those parts the weekend of 10/18 - 10/20. The boat is in the shop mid-week so I will be kicking tires in those neck of the woods until she is finished up on that Friday at some point then I could head for the south fork.

any of you southern ID, jackson, utards and harry montanans up for gatherings the 3rd weekend of Oct?

I think that is the weekend Kokomas proposed as a JH Ullarfest. If so I could party in JH Saturday night and fish on Sunday.

I work that Saturday until 2.

Kokomas: what is the word on Ullarfest ?

I'm fairly certain that Kokomas had changed the date to maybe the 12th. I think he had something come up for the 19th.

MK - Damn dog, been a while; since BBI. My place is open to you. Bring 2Funky...

Open to all for that matter. Howzabout a Park float? Jackson lake Dam to Deadman's bar or Moose or Wison bridge?

Djongo that's right, I am out of town Oct 19. Don't let that stop you guys. I could attend Oct 12 somewheres or I may be able to host Oct 26...checking if the kiddos got us booked for Halloween

I am good with anything! I will leave the logistics of floats to the locals. Park float sounds amazing.

Appreciate the lodging offer however I'll be rolling the home on wheels and towing the boat (55' give or take when towing) so parking might a bit tough in town.

Happy to have 2Funky join however my week+ journey might not fit with his work schedule. He and I have discussed a winter assault of the Tetons.

**schwerty** · 10-01-2019, 10:35 AM

I’ll fish either of the purposes wknds. Probably won’t camp tho.

What’s the Jh gathering all about?

**kokomas** · 10-01-2019, 10:49 AM

I was suggesting an Ullrfest. I'm out of town weekend of Oct 19 though. Could maybe host a different weekend if there is interest

**skifishbum** · 10-01-2019, 11:45 AM

i donts haz a checklist
but the fact that i aint floated deadman to moose yet
would most def factor in
as would any desire to tow the hog in snow agains

**schwerty** · 10-01-2019, 03:22 PM

Sfb - my boat will be around until turkey day. Let me know of you’re coming up. If I can’t float you can take it.

Kokomas - I’m here all month except this wknd. I’m in. I’m sure we could find a suitable venue.

Wish I could get an October Sanke float in! Sadly, it isnt in the cards this year. Schwerty still planning a December run and possibly a Thanksgiving one as well.

**schwerty** · 10-01-2019, 06:43 PM

Teleee - I think we are heading to the Midwest to turkey day. Kinda dreading that trip. Has to have been 20years since I’ve traveled around that holiday. Maybe more.
Be here all December tho. I’ve got a fresh box of amazon rubber gloves waiting for you.

Welp if dibbs is in so am I!

**Djongo Unchained** · 10-01-2019, 09:49 PM

3rd weekend in October; rain, snow or shine. Fishing from wherever you guys choose.
MK - plenty of long parking right at my house. It's a horse trailer town ya know...
I gots the usual digs for mags.
Deadmans to Moose is so stunning. I floated that once in high summer in a Mae West lazily floating about 100 yds behind my fishing friends.

**Harry** · 10-02-2019, 12:02 AM

I am definitely in.

DJ, you got room for me Saturday night ? I will get there around 6:30 or 7.

Sunday is the only day I can fish.

I hear ya, we are debating wither Iowa or Irwin for turkey day, you can guess what I am lobbying for!

**mooseknuckles** · 10-02-2019, 10:06 AM

Thats the spirit TheFugitive, Dibbs and Harry!

Thanks Djongo, I will glamp in my digs on your estate.

Looking forward to meeting many of the other suspects on here who continue to fill the fishing threads with stoke!

Keep fighting the good fight Telee. Spent too many Thanksgivings in Iowa City with howling wind, sleet and snow. Never again!

**Harry** · 10-02-2019, 10:29 AM

I have never fished in GTNP. Excellent suggestion by Djongo to fish this stretch. Looking forward to this.

Current roster:
1) Djongo
2) Mooseknukles (Boat #1)
3) schwerty (Boat #2)
4) Harry
5) skifishbum (Boat #3)
6) Sheldon (dog, but counts as a human when calculating how many boats we need)
7) Fugitive
8) mini-Fugitive (best fisherman of all of us..)

Sounds like we have enough boats that Fugitive won't have to tow his raft up.

I won't be there on Saturday, but Mooseknukles you should definitely try the South Fork while you are in the area. I will leave those arrangements up to you guys.

Hey DJ: if this is too many peeps at your place we can always go in together on a cheap (for JH) motel. Your roommate/landlord is a very cool guy, but I don't want to overwhelm him.

Legal question: will we need GTNP Fishing Licenses, or WY Fishing Licenses, or both ??? Assume fly shops in JH will be open Sunday morning to buy them ?

Sounds like one hell of an outing, I am jealous! You dont need a park fishing license, a Wyoming license will suffice, you will however, need a Park sticker for your boat (unless things have changed since last year) Schwerty can confirm. I love the park floats, some of my favorite water anywhere.

**mooseknuckles** · 10-02-2019, 11:35 AM

Any of you locals know the regulations for boats on those stretches in the park?

Motors allowed (if not used)?

Happy to work on finding another vessel for those stretches as the one I will be towing has a jet and kicker mounted to the transom.

**Underoos** · 10-02-2019, 11:55 AM

I wish the ColoRADo fishing mags were this cool.

That is correct, i think you can still only get the boat permit at the Visitor Centers in Moose or Colter Bay. There's also typically inspection stations in Moose just before the entrance and Moran, but not sure when they shut down for the season.
