Title: What happened to the Memorial Day Float Fly?

What happened to the Memorial Day Float Fly?

This morning I load up my truck, get to the lake around 10:40, the gate to the CDF station is wide open so I cruise on in, only to find the gate at the dam closed and locked and not a soul around. Huy?.....what's up with that? Float Fly number 2, Monday May 26th, on Memorial Day seems to have vanished into thin air, or been cancelled.

Did I miss some damn memo or e-mail?

Sorry you missed it. We had a great time watching the geese being buffeted trying to land
on the lake. The wind was so bad we finally gave up between 9:30-10:00.
It was the first total bust I've ever seen in 10 years. Sorry bout that.
 By the way, There will be will be a Bar -B-Que on the fourth at the lake, hosted by Larry G and
 Glenn B. Hope every one can make it.

Lol--sorry you missed it, Dave.  It was a good turn out while it lasted.

Those geese doing inverted approaches told us everything there was to know. It was not a good day for a Float Fly.
