What's happening on the 19THof April?
MCC- 4/12 Barnett
FJ-4/5 Sardis
FJ-5-3 Enid
The 20th is Easter sunday.
this might be a silly question but is there any reason that it cant be the same weekend as the fj tourney on enid and have it at enid or would it be too big of a conflict. Arkansas is the weekend before and then if Mo was the weekend after it would let anyone like bill bob attend 1 2 or all 3 of them. I for one would love to see all the big fish weighed in from the tournament and it will let the most people attend. The ones that arent going to fish the tournament could help with getting things started on the cooking and such and it would probably be a great turn out. It might cut down on the partying alittle bit on friday night for some but that wont hurt either. Just my :twocents worth. It might be good to get with the folks from Mo to see it that works for them and will help them in planning also.
That particular tourney is part of The Worlds Biggest Crappie Festival held by the town of Water Valley, its a MCC event that we fish along with and the day is pretty much shot by the time its all over. As far as big fish being weighed in that tourney, that wasn't the case the last 2 years at Enid during that tourney.
I would love to be able to attend one of the camps, but I won't make a vote as I have not been to a previous one. The thing that I've noticed from all the posts is that no one is mentioning any February dates. Why not consider having it in mid to late February? I cannot speak for any other lake, but Enid is a fine place to fish in February. It wouldn't technically be a "spring camp," but winter in Mississippi ain't really winter.

that was temps for oxford this past Feb
Feshing is WAY better in April than Feb on Nader and the others as well, matter fact if that is the date considered I would take Grenada off the table, Sardis or Enid would be better choices. A date may need to be decided first and then the place depending on the date.
FISH FRY and purty women
Maybe a summer camp then, "G"s idea and it sounds good. Fish fry on the beach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:ThumbsUp
Nothing mentioned about March.
I believe this are our choices so far. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I agree G but are the numbers not gonna be better if it is at a time when the feshing would be good. The ones of us that are close enuff to go to the Saturday gathering don't have much expense but the ones that haul campers or rent rooms and pull a boat would prolly enjoy catching some fesh while here as well.
After reading all this it looks like we need to be looking for a date for our camp in Illinois the same as you guys do so that anybody like slab and bill bob and myself that would like to come to both of them will be able to do so. Based on what ATM put up on dates I would say the 3rd or 17th would work best for us up here as that would have the water temps where they needed to be for fishing and the nights should be warmer for the tent campers.
It didn't bother the ones at Pickwick. ScottV drove and hauled his camper 460 miles round trip. clfarms came all the way from Ill . We had folks from Louisville and everywhere else. Why the worry about numbers? is that important? just trying to figure out why we are having camp here.
I think we will have good numbers of people wherever we have camp
The fishing sucked at Pickwick, for EZ and I, but I still had a great time. I'm planning on coming to Spring Camp, wherever it is, a few days early and fish. Somewhere that the fishing would be good would make it a double great trip.
Is 3-29 an open date?
