Spring Camp

I've never been to Rend, but with regards to Camp: We have some guys there local (or somewhat local) to Shelbyville that do one hell of a job organizing Camp for us. As far as I'm concerned, that has as much to do with it as the location of the camp itself. Hell, we know those organizers can't catch fish without poaching others' numbers, so they aren't having it at Shelbyville because of the fishing... As long as those poachers continue to organize the wonderful camps, I'll go wherever they want! If you move it, I hope the locals that organize it are as good as our poachers!!!!!

Well said Jeff

wilber is a guber

BB, you coming to spring camp to be with Wilbur ? :Rofl

Jeff if you haven't fished Rend you need to go in the spring for the spawn. The buck brush fishing can get exciting. With that being said everyone does a great job of putting things together at the north camp. I think we should give someone the opportunity to put on a great south camp if they what to do one. We've had no one chime in from that area yet so maybe there is no interest.

The spring camp has been decided to be at Shelbyville for 2015. I don't think that we should try and divide the CDC family into two fish camps for the May camp, there is always a fall camp or 2016 CDC camp, to split and divide the May camp is terribly wrong after the dates have been set, this means more donations for fishing gear that would be wrong to take advantage of these donors and company's that give. I myself have a room booked and has no bearing on why i'm writing this, things like this should be decided in the prior year and not before a upcoming camp where this may cause split and divide, remember we are family.

This is how this thread started..Ok guys it's that time to start planning the spring camp, the date I believe it is May 18-19 ? Sound off gents

Yahoo, but I think its, 15,16 and 17 of May, Fri, Sat, Sun

This was the next reply..

Where is this Shelbyville you speak of

The last one is my favorite.. It sounds like the thread was started for planning a camp. Also If one is started in the south they would get there own sponsors in the area were the camp maybe. If the current sponsors want to donate to south camp they would be more than welcome. You got to remember Rend lake is always a week or two ahead of Shelbyville when the spawn rolls around. So one could hit both camps if he has the time to do so. If not pick the closet camp to your area. No one is trying to divide the original camp up. Illinois is a big state and this would let more people get to there camp of there choice or the best case scenario both.

I'm just curious as to why you're trying so hard it seems to push the camp to rend? But the spring camp was decided way back this spring and that's when the dates were set in stone for shelbyville for spring 2015...

He might own a motel there

Not trying to push the camp anywhere just trying to have another option if one wishes. No Wilbur I don't own any motel in that area. I wish I did then I could charge all gubers double..lol
