Dave, that's too bad - but probably a wise choice!

Plans are coming together pretty well for this year's event. We're just about a month away and the fishing is really picking up and I'm sure it'll be going strong when we're all together.

I have the Sycamore Flats pavilion reserved for Friday (someone else has it reserved for Saturday, but that's ok).

For various planning purposes, can ya'll give me a roll cal of who's planning to be there and what days?
Thanks!

Plans to attend still holding good, hopefully will get a fair amount of fishing in between now and then in the area.

Still looking forward to attend.

Have a room reserved but if anyone is looking at an Air B&B and wants to share let me know.

I will be there Thursday midday and plan to leave early Sunday morning. I may have a coworker with me but unsure at this time. I have a house reserved (VRBO) very close to the intersection of 64 and 276.

Thanks,
Chris

I have a campsite reserved, will be there on Friday afternoon and into Wednesday. I have to go back to VA to guide some club water for a PHW veteran on Thursday.
There'll be plenty of coffee at camp in the mornings. If I know ahead of time for some of you to stop by in the mornings.... I can have breakfast going. I usually eat pretty well at camp.

If all goes well with the travel, I should be arriving Thursday, leaving Monday morning. I've got an RV campsite reserved kind of across from you guys so I won't have to sleep under the picnic table if the "creekwater" rises to an intolerable level!

Sounds wonderful, wish I could make it, I just want to say thanks again Chris for putting on the driftless conclave, it was fun and very informative.

Noticed the full moon is that Saturday of the conclave. Coincidence? Moonshine

I might have to try some night fishing near the campground if conditions are favorable to do do.

HA! I didn't notice that for some reason!
I bet some night fishing would be a lot of fun!

I'm so glad you made it and enjoyed it! I'm hoping to be able to do the Coulee Conclave next year. I really miss the Driftless!

I wish I could come down for the clave but other business prohibits. Agreed regarding the Coulee Conclaves. One of my favorite fishing events of the last couple of years. I miss them.

Hopefully next year, When is the western conclave Dusty? I vote Rotating glass conclave, South East, North Central, Northwest.

No Clave last year.....

None on my books this year......

Grouchy boy.....

If Chris and Dusty hadn't put on the Coulee Clave I'm quite confident I would have never made it to the Driftless. Grateful for all the work that these guys put in to make them happen.

Not to hijack this thread but I don't know when the next Montana Clave will be although I know I won't be hosting one this year.

Looks like the weather should work out for the weekend. I assume the water is a little high right now, with recent rains, but should be receding this week. Just getting all my camping gear, etc. ready to head down that way...

Not as much rain as was in the forecast, Rivers definitely received a top up.

Been seeing inch worms hanging over the streams, yellow sallies and heard of some sulfur activity in addition to the expected stuff in the last week.

That's great news! It's looking like it'll be great weather for the weekend.
One edit to the events, due to some kind of conflict our reservations for Saturday at the Sycamore Flats Picnic Shelter were cancelled and reserved by someone else. It sounds like some kind of glitch in the reservation system. I’ll find a place for us to hang out - maybe another nearby picnic shelter or Ecusta Brewing or someplace like that.

And on the subject of a Coulee Conclave, Dusty and I are talking about organizing one for next year. We'll talk about it later though.

I'll have a bunch of dries (and a few soft hackles) with me that I'll have for sale for $1 each.
