One of the nice things about meeting for the first time, we will be able to organize and grow.
Things like this, I don't believe have only one leader, but everyone gets involved with setting up events on their own fishing lakes. I can post sticky threads to let those to vote on when and what lake to go to next.
TROPHIES: I talked BOATCLUB08 out of the trophy idea as I expected if we advertised that there were trophies some would expect that there would be CASH PRIZES. I am not a competitive person and would not attend or become a part of it.
We can discuss this in greater detail Saturday.
STARTING TIME TOTAL FISH TIME: It is up to everyone. We can have a "SHOTGUN" start or just go off whenever we get our engines warmed up. DON'T MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE TO ME. I am in it for the fellowship.:D:D

I just got off the phone with Chuckauten...I am trying to decide whether to make the trip down there this weekend. I have always wanted to fish Lake Monroe and would like to meet some of the guys on the Florida Board...Time will tell if I go or not................

I looked at the Georgia slabfest stuff. Seems there are a few of the members that have taken it upon themselves to organize and guide the activities of their fests. That's great, I for one also prefer to be an indian, not a chief, there are people in this world that being a chief just comes natural to and they find comfort and belonging in accepting positions like that.
So, we need a few guys (FlyCaster/Chucker/??) to form a committee and assume the roles of "Slabfest Coordinators" and draw up the rules and regs for the next time, and we all will go by those rules, etc, etc, etc.
That sound good ?
Kiddin???? that is my game.:D:DQuote:

See you in the morning.

Are we going to do the shotgun start and is it going to be at 7am. I think we talked making it earlier because of all the other boaters that might be there. I had plans of getting there around 6:15 so should I wait or go?
I am all for an early start, I will also be getting there early.Quote:

I guess I waited too long to decide to try and make it this weekend. I will have to stay home and hope it warms up enough to try one of the local lakes. I talked to Chuck around 11 and he was just pulling into Sanford. I hope the fish and weather cooperates with yall this weekend.Quote:

Looking at my accuweather for this time of day (12 noon), it says it's 57deg and wind is 16mph. (Back porch says it's 61 deg)
Looking at tomorrow same time it predicts 60 deg and 10mph.
So, might not be so bad.......
Only thing I think might give us a problem is possible wind messing with the picnic area, etc....
I also think the best way to launch is to report to Boatclub08's place and drop off your stuff, then go ahead and take off.
Oh Yea ! ! ! ! !!
Here's my cell phone number --> 321-258-7459
So, around 11:30am call and I'll give a count of how many fish we got, and if everybody does that then we'll be able to determine if we got enough for a cookout, etc. We'll need one person to call everybody else to tally up etc, etc, then let everybody know to keep fishin or not by the 12 noon point, etc, etc
Oh yeah, I'm leaving in a few minutes to come over there to meet Chucker and Kevin, we're going to spend the night there in the boat so we can get the jump on all ya'll ! :):):)
I wish I could make it Phantom...Hopefully next time around. Yall take it easy on Chuckauten and Speck/Tater.....They are misplaced yankees....:D
