Thread: 2010 Spring Crappie Slayin Get Together ....

As for now the water is pretty calm and very beautiful... There isnt too many ppl out on the lake a boat ever now and then but all that will change tomorrow morning... I am looking forward to meeting everyone in the morning. Tommy

Boats packed and ready! See everyone in the morning. CP, I'll be there a little extra early as well. Meet you at the pavilion.

Will be there in the morning. Bringing brownies and chips.

ONE SMASHING CRAPPIE SLAYING SUCCESS!!!
Thanks to Bad Brad CP and all the others who helped to make this a success. We need to do this every year!!

And, first off I gotta say I'm really sorry that you didn't get to go fish :o ... but, thanks for sticking around & joining us for the cookout. Thanks for the name tags & backup on the food ... just glad we didn't have to call on you for it

*****************************
OK ... here's the pictures I took:

Some of our group doing their thing on the flats/channels -


BadBrad doing his thing, and filling our quota of fish (~ 20 or so)


... which resulted in this -


... then, while our expert fish cleaners were busy with their chores, the rest of us set up the pavilion for the feast -


... which went something like this -



OK ... I'm sorry for not having more pics ... but I was too busy fishing, fieldtesting the ESP rods, cooking, eating, socializing, and giving away prizes , to take all that many photos :p

*****************************
I gave away Crappie.com hats to the two youngest anglers in the group. You can see them proudly wearing them, in the photos above.

Special thanks to Joey Briggs - for the Vicious line & decals that he provided, and for one of the two poles that were given away.
Special thanks to KyTeacher (David) - for one of the poles that was given away, & for providing us with helpful info on where/how to fish.

I didn't get a chance to get pics of the winners of the BnM poles .. but. congrats to:

Glynn Clark (Ind) ... winner of the 12' BnM rod
Jim Greenwood ... winner of the 11' Richard Williams/BnM rod

--------------------------------
Me, personally ... I had a ball !! It was organized chaos, from the start to the finish, but that didn't stop anyone from having a great time ... catching some fish ... enjoying a beautiful day on the water ... making new friends ... and chowing down on some DEEEEElicious food !!

A big round of applause for a successful 1st time get together
And a special thanks to EVERYONE that came & participated in this event.
