Well, I got a better excuse = 12/12/15 is my wife's birthday ............. (and she don't like fishin) .........

No one interested? Guess we can cancel this one!

Darn, I was going to try to make this because there is zero bite in the backyard right now. I might just go down there anyway. Can anyone tell me anything about the lake? Depth? Water clarity etc?

Thanks.

I was gonna give it a shot but if there's only 2-3 boats may not be worth it

cold always do Munroe, I'm sure some will go there??

Funny how everyone was game for it until I changed to to catch and release. Guess its easier to preach than practice!

Mike I doubt your change to "catch and release" was the major factor in folks not showing much interest (I think 3 folks responded here). I can only speak for myself but as a non fish eating fisherman, "catch and release" is pretty much 99.9% of my norm. I can say though to some degree that maybe the choice of the very small lake came into the picture more than the added wrinkle, if you consider catch and release a wrinkle.

Than again maybe some show up to these fests planning on keeping their fish and in that case, yes I can see why they may wanted to have skipped by this one.

At the time you stated the catch and release, IMO it didn't seem like a deal breaker.

I for one was going to wait and see the folks intending on attending, basing my decision on the total number of boats anticipated. The only concern I had was the size of the lake. Your added idea this past weekend came across as nothing short of a deal maker to me..............and Ill always try and support folks who show honest concern about a lakes stock.

I also believe alot of folks may be looking toward Crescent anywhere from December 1st thru March which also may be coming into the picture.

It was a good thought Mike............. even though the lake was small you came up with a super idea to possibly limit the pressure. Hats off to you my friend and let it roll off your back :)

No sweat off my back! Dont bother me one lil bit. I will be fishing somewhere that weekend.
