Fishing on Friday

The forums are very quiet

The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF form is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

Summit people,

As the long awaited GFFsummit08 is creeping closer, some practical things are hopefully getting clearer (for some at least...).

What are your plans for Friday?

I expect to leave Copenhagen Friday morning (transportation a bit unclear still) and am open for pretty much anything, from secret beaches to Ripley's bursting cages.

Looking forward...
Cheers,

Again, Wedellsborg has kindly granted the GFF event use of the grounds.
This will be a permanent thing as long as basic rules are followed.

The Wedellsborg grounds are open between 08:00 and 17:30 for GFF '08 participants. [b:a38e7b8d27]Not before then.[/b:a38e7b8d27]

You may only park at the same place as last years event and if you can - share a car, use space to avoid traffic.

Basics...

Do not block any forest track or exit.
Drive slowly.
Make way for all forest traffic.
Treat the forest as if it's your own garden.
Rubbish / litter poeple! Carry it in, carry it out.
Be good people.

Take a camera - The grounds are "choka-blok" with deer, sea eagles, hawks, buzzards, rabbit and other foresty critters.

If asked, you are with the GFF '08 party and permssion is granted by the District Leader and Skovfoged / Forest Ranger KIM BECH. Mention my name also.

Count Wedell will have some royal guest V.I.P's that weekend, so this year we have to display a GFF permission sticker in the car windows for reasons of security.
Cars without one, will be towed of the premises this year.

Martin, has the details about the car stickers or notes - I hope?

I'll be there - as always - 08:00-ish.

Thanks for the advanced preparations Ripley (especially the preloaded cages).

I will be coming up from south Jutland friday morning, and heading towards Weddelsborg, if anybody needs a lift from that directions, send me a mail.

Look forward to seeing everyone again.

Hello Everyone,

Well I plan on leaving Leverkusen (Germany) at around 6am.... it is a good 6 or 7 hour drive, so I hope to arrive somewere at around 13:00 (I have never been in Denmark....not even close to be honest, so I hope to meet up with someone who knows their way arround on Friday..)

BTW... I am still looking for someone who wants to Car pool from Germany/Belgium/Netherlands..... it is a very long way to drive alone ....

I am quite flexible when it comes to timing...so if you are interested, give me a shout.

Ruan,

Hi all,

Atli, you´d better watch out. They may be 3 Lithuanians, no doubt, but have your driving licence on you in case they´re looking for a driver... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Rolandas, sorry my friend, I couldn´t resist the temptation :D

Hi Rolandas,

That sounds great!
I know I'm in safe hands with you guys (especially now, when you'll not be busy straightening out some mess made by your Latvian brothers...).

I'll send you an email soon to work out the details

Cheers,

Hello, I will be driving that car, so, if you will have some driving details/addres for your pickup, please, send for me too. I will put them in my GPS navigation waypoints list for easer finding.

Regards,

Vanuz,

No worries here mate, I still have your number, just in case we run into trouble. You do have some experience in rescuing stranded Lithuanians, I know.
-Just make sure to pack a few extra trousers, so no one will have to dine in waders this time... http://globalflyfisher.com/forum/download.php?id=263

Since you got this far …


The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
