How old is your son? I drug my (then) 12 and 9 yr old son and daughter, and my wife (who does fish) 4.5 hours out to Bucksaw for our first Crappie Camp last spring, rolled in 30 min before those storms, set up in a flash, and set to meeting everybody huddled together under what little shelter there was. (Dad, that guy has had a few too many! Yes Honey, thats Bugs).
He is 15. Him and I have fished out of Bucksaw several times so we are somewhat familiar with the area. We are certainly not expert crappie guys but we do usually manage to catch a few.
There's a better chance my son will be saying "Dad, YOU'VE had a few too many!!!" HA! I'm partial to Glenlivet single malt scotch when sitting around the campfire; I plan on breakin the seal on a new bottle at camp for any others that may imbibe good scotch. Good to know everyone won't be sittin around sippin iced tea and bottled water all weekend!
Just make sure you keep your son away from Beagle, or he's liable to end up getting a lesson in training farm animals, and keep a good distance from OSS or you'll go home shoppin' for a Ford (although all his fishing tips MIGHT be worth gettin' behind the wheel of one of those things).
LOL! He reads most of the posts with me so he probably knows them as well as I do; we can't wait to meet everyone in person. We laugh a lot at a bunch of the posts, good folks for sure. As for the Ford, too late, I'll be pullin in in an F150 so he won't have to "sell" me too hard on what truck to drive!
We do not want the gift of a fish; neither do we expect a lesson on fishing; what we direly need is a chance to fish
