Ooooooh I would drive a thousand miles to do that. Oh, wait, no I wouldn't. Girl I work with took two fish in the crick that runs through town last weekend. She was backtrolling plugs, though, so they don't count.

Wasn't that many years ago that area was considered remote. Ain't modern communications technology great?

At least you wern't the last boat in the line.

Come on over to the wet side of Washington and fish the Skagit. You will see the same thing except the boats will be river sleds powered by 100 horse outboards. Now think of it for a minute. 8 boats screaming past you at 30 mph; each with 3 or 4 bubbas fishing out of it. Ahhhhhhhh what a way to enjoy a day out fly fishing.

No it does not sound like a enjoyable day to be fly fishing, but if I could use my TOE "Tactical Optical Weapon", it would be more fun than firing at stationary targets on a range.
