I would like to organize a beach cleanup this winter. Currently I are looking at January/February time frame. I don't have any specific dates in mind, but soon I would like to have two or three dates to offer up then go from there.

The idea is to have a good time cleaning up a beach and potluck lunch. If people are interested in doing fly swap that would be fun also. Of course, come ready to fish.

I am open to suggestions on beaches/logistics.

If you are interested in attending let me know so I can get you on the list. In the reply also indicate if you want to do a fly swap so I can get numbers for that as well.

Also this will be a family friendly event.

This is a really cool idea! I am interested but am unsure about my commitments will pan out with a new babe. Once there are dates, I might be able to get a better idea whether I can commit.

No worries. I can put you down as a maybe if you would like. I understand family and commitments come first!

Clever way to try and get us to give up our good beaches.....I won't fall for it. Good idea. I would be a maybe based on details.

 

[Philonius]

Put me down as a definite maybe too. I can almost certainly make my schedule work. Nice idea!

Welp the gig is up. Tell ya what. PM your best beaches and I'll make sure we don't go to those

Good idea.
Put me down as a tentative for attendance and swap.

Just a couple suggestions.

Please do this at a well know beach that gets a decent amount of non angler traffic as well.
That type of beach tends to attract more litter plus will likely have some amenities should a decent number of people decide to attend.

Fishing can also be decent to good at those types of beaches with plenty of room for people to spread out.
It also doesn't blow up any of the lesser known beaches.

That's a great suggestion. One of the state or municple parks should fit the bill.

 

[I'm not here]

I'll be there if possible

Count me as a maybe as well. I am traveling a couple weeks during that timeframe but will make it if I can.

Potluck - I’ll bring the spiked punch. We’ll get those beaches out of Stonefish, Mtskibum, etc. While your at it, there are a few more folks you’ll want to make sure get on the list, even if you have to bribe them .

And just to get this straight; you want me to bring a fly rod to a beach and do .......cleanup? I’ll do my best to make it but I’m not sure how much cleaning I’ll get done. If there are just sculpin to be caught, I might end up doing more casting then cleaning...

 

[meh.meh.meh.meh.meh.]

Everyone, but @jasmillo come prepared to fish

 

[Eyejuggler]

Count me in please!
Great idea!!

 

[Eyejuggler]

Put me in for the swap too please! The bigger the window, I can finagle shift coverage if on a weekend.

 

[Nick Clayton]

I'd be in for this, details pending.

Also I'd be in for a swap

Hey Guys. Back in planning mode for this. I'm thinking mid-March.

If anyone has suggestions for locations please let me know. I'm thinking popular but not "golden gardens" popular.

 

[Stonefish]

I don't think you want that many possible people on any searun beach unless you do it at Purdy.
That's about normal though for there.

There is a park by some big bridges with lots of beach that folks can spread out on and isn't top secret.
Lots of beach to pick up litter on as well. That would be my vote if I'm able to attend that weekend.

[Nick Clayton]

Agreed with SF. Big park near some bridges would be a fine idea.

 

[TJ Fisher]

I'm in!

I would agree, if one of the primary focus' of this is beach clean up, the bigger more popular beaches will be better suited for this. Usually more room and more tourists = more trash.

 

[meh.meh.meh.meh.meh.]

Ok yall, I am looking at 3/24 or 3/31 for this at Tacoma Narrows Park.

I will provide trash bags and nitrile gloves.

Once we land on a date and who can attend we can discuss food option!

Puget Sound cleanup is now on the Hood Canal @ Dosewallips SP as part of @SeattleFarq 's Hood Canal Cutthroat Campout. The Name pretty much says it. 3/24-3/25. Maybe a prize for whoever can collect the most trash? Contact @SeattleFarq for more details
