I think he better sell that boat. :D

Now, now, in all fairness, we were told to meet back after lunch break at 1:30. I went out and installed 4 cleats, a transducer, and launched the boat. Tied off near the pumps, went inside at 1:33 and had missed out on the drawings. You guys had me going for about 30 seconds on that! I think it was a mean and dirty trick. Too bad I didn't think of it, Ha! It was great to meet you Jim. I'm gonna have to make the track solo someday so you can come along, or we'll take your pontoon out, does not matter. I tend to go to bed early, but ain't skeered for one second to launch a boat at 2 in the morning to hunt down some new slabs that have moved into the shallows after dark. I actually prefer the overnight fishing the spawn to the daytime. So many fish tend to disappear off their beds after a couple of hours of daylight. That would also give me a reason to roll that way and flirt with Jasons cashier on the pretense of buying a burger:p.

You two should have paid me a grand just for the op of meeting such a fine speciman of a 50 something icon that I am. (not to mention, good looking, really nice guy, bout perfect in every way, not stuck up or conceited in any way shape of form)

Now excuse me while I go wash my socks and dirty shorts.

I would like to say, Thanks, to all that made this great gathering happen. The wife and I really enjoyed meeting new people, and learing different things about crappie and crappie fishing. Looking forward to the next gathering, hopefully this fall.

Had a great time meeting some real nice people at Lake Eufaula yesterday.

At my age and whatever her age is....
And if the woman is sharp as well, she'll understand by now that a man has to have some kind of hobby. If said hobby doesn't involve any drinking, drugs, or another woman, and she's invited on each and every trip, then it shouldn't be a problem. Especially if the man, (that's me), keeps income and family on top of the priority list. The Crappie will always be there. I'll get them when I can. You guys who have women that love to fish are very lucky!

Don't get me wrong, I'm not in any hurry at all to get back in the saddle, but I wouldn't want to let the right one get away either. Tis a fine line, shopping without trying on the items.

Till then, I'll work and fish when I can. Got no reason to be chasing women even being the availabe bachelor that I am. If I meet someone and there's a mutual chemistry, cool. If I don't, don't care.

And if I'm going to meet any more beautiful women that appear to be single at Crappie fishing gatherings, then I'm there! Who knows, I could find one that loves to catch Crappie!

Just wanted to say thanks to all who put it all together.....you guys did a great job

Glad to here the meeting was a success. I'm sorry I didnt' get to make it sounds like everyone enjoyed themselves hopefully the next time I wont work till 3:30 in the morning and miss out on all the fun.
