This report brought to you in memory of Smokey the Great Trout Scout.  Long live his memory and long live Blue River.

The Veteran's Day Weekend Trout Derby will be held the 15th and 16th of November, 2008.  Holding the derby this weekend will allow for three full stockings by the Wildlife Department and the special stocking for the derby.  It should be a grand event.  Call your neighbors and friends and be sure and bring the whole family especially the kiddies.

The Smoker can't use a cell phone to call Operation Game Thief but when he sees poachers doing what they do he certainly wants to take a bite out of crime.  It is both unethical and a violation of wildlife rules, not to mention what it does to the whole of the outdoor community, to poach or go beyond established rules.  So, help the little trout scout with a snout out by plugging into your cell phone the number to Operation Game Thief - 1-800-522-8039.  You'll feel dog-gone good about it.
