It's the brain child of well known walleye fishing guide and promoter Ed Iman.  For 12 years now he has been inviting outdoor writers and broadcasters, tournament anglers and guides, and manufacturers with ties to the fishing industry to the Peach Beach RV Park on the Columbia River across the river from Biggs Junction, Oregon.  For five days participants to this invitation only event go fishing on the Columbia River or nearby tributaries for multiple species of fish and then get together in the afternoon and evening for networking, good food, a few beverages, and to hear presentations from the manufacturers about new gear they have coming out on the market.  Its a wonderful event, which generally features good weather, fine fishing and the chance to meet and visit with some wonderful people in the outdoors industry. 

 

We'll get tips on how to catch Fall Chinook out of that big run making their way up the Columbia and Snake Rivers from two Mack's Lure Pro-Guides, learn about some knives to fillet those fish with from Columbia River Knife and Tool (CRKT), discover a great tool to sharpen those fillet knives from WorkSharp, and drool at what's coming out of the Camp Chef Smoke Vault, a propane smoker we'll be using to smoke those Chinook salmon! 

 
NOTE: If there is a fishing enthusiast on your Christmas list, sounds like you may find some great gift ideas. Just sayin'.
 
On top of all of this, we are giving away gel and oil scent packs from Pro-Cure this week to help you catch salmon, sturgeon and walleye and David Sparks interviews Steve Liebenthal with Idaho Fish and Game about an automated deer decoy they will be using this fall to apprehend deer poachers on this weekend's edition of "Sportsman's Spotlight"!
