Lake Talquin "Get Together At The Lumberyard 2012"

November is still several months away, but we are already planning our "Get Together" for the third year in a row on November 10, 2012. It looks like this is turning into an annual event. :biggrin This years "Get Together", will have a little twist this year combining "The Big Fish Throwdown" in with it against the members at Lake Monroe. This will be their chance to redeem themselves...The last "Throwdown" wasn't as exciting as the Lake Monronians wished for and the weather (at least the wind) played a big part of that for both lakes...OK, who am I fooling...That was their excuse anwayRofl...Lake Talquin weighed in some really good fish:highfive I know this is gonna be a huge decision on Slapcrabstu and 65 Pontiac from FL to decide where to fish because we know they want to be on the winning lake this time:cheers2...So getting back to"The Get Together" you have a few months to make your plans to attend in November. We may do a thing or 2 different this year to make it a bit more exciting..Or at least a little more "Entertaining"...That will be announced later.. I believe we had 40-50 folks there last year and it went over real well. Hope to see some familiar faces this year along with some new faces....The number for Lake Talquin Lodge is 850-627-3822 to make reservations. Looking forward to another great turn out this year and always looking forward to the great hospitality that we recieve from the Leverettes at Lake Talquin Lodge!!!

I can see who is starting the "Smack Talk", but I'll hold off for a few months...Still enjoying the afterglow from the first Throwdown and you aint a gonna ruin it....Besides, Hooker still has some engagements booked that we haven't attendedRofl

I will at some point make it to Talquin this fall. You fellers have a ball and post lots of pics. Best of all we will be together that day just a couple hundred miles apart.

Boom Boom I just posted this all over the State of Florida !!!!!


The Lake Talquin annual MEETING BEHIND THE TREE IN THE YARD or something like that, is November 10th and we had tentatively planned to have our Lake Monroe Slabfest on the same day so we could simultaneously have the Semi-Annual Monroe/Talquin Throw down. But, that may interfere with some folks that are planning or would like to attend the Talquin event. So, after talking to some very important and knowledgable people it was decided to get some input on this. I know last year some of our group attended the Talquin event and it’s something I would like to do also. I know it’s a long time away, but what else do you have to think about? ….the weather has put a damper on the fishing anyway. We still might get in a little friendly competition on which group catches the biggest fish that day.

Post your thoughts and ideas!!

I think it is a GREAT idea, Mike....We all really enjoyed the last Throwdown in March even tho we were 200+ miles away...To have both groups at the same lake at the same time, plus any other Crappie.com members would probably qualify for the Southeast's first Super Slabfest...Lake Talquin Lodge would never be the same:yikes I just don't think we would feel right having even a friendly competition on our home lake....but if you insist!!!Rofl...I think it is a great idea and we have plenty of time to plan and prepare for it...Just let us know what you guys decide and we'll go for it:highfive

Be glad to share my boat ....course all the fish would count for "Team Talquin" Winners of First Annual Lake Talquin Vs Lake Monroe Throwdown. .........Just had to throw that in......

You guys were famous for pulling wings off butterflys when younger. Thought you out grown that.Rofl

Forgot to say it is not just the T boys and girls, but the ones from the big MRoflRofl

Looking forward to the months of humor, I enjoy it. You guys crack me up.

You had a visitor at your camper last week. Bout 3 foot long with small head......probably catching lost rats and bugs. He's at home under the tarp but likes to warm on Sunny days. Just a friendly pet.......We love all Animals

Ya shoulda just opened the camper and let him stay inside...We all know how Chuck loves them snakes:bash

My group is kicking around coming down but I think we will stay at Ingrams and come over for the git together. They have boat slips.

Its a long way off but I'm planning on being at one of the two lakes, can't decide !!! Hmmmm

Count me in either way. If everyone fishes at Talquin that weekend, that should prove to be interesting. Have the Lake Munroe ppl decided what they are going to do yet?

yep had a good teacher last trip :highfive

It looks like it is a done deal:highfive..The Central FL crew will be meeting us at Talquin on November 10 for what is looking like a "Super Slabfest"...This may be just a little different from the last 2 "Get Togethers" and more like the old Slabfests we used to have with possibly some friendly competition between all of us and definitely some good eating!!...If you plan on trying to make it to Talquin the weekend of November 10, it may be a good idea to make reservations early as LTL is usually close to full the whole month of November..Ingrams and Whippoorwill is also somewhere to think about staying especially with the boat slip situation...Looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones!!

Ditto

I talked with Pat at Lake Talquin Lodge this afternoon and she has 2 cabins left and 4 motel rooms left for the Nov 10 weekend. 1 cabin will sleep 4 people and 1 cabin can sleep 5 people.

Thumbs Up...the competition makes it more fun for a lot of people..doesn't matter if it is teams or individual. competition is fun for most of us on here..

I think I'm gonna grow a beard in honor of the SUPER SLABFEST. I would try a pony tail,,,,buttttt pontiac already has the jump on me!Rofl

I will be at the Super Slabfest and hope to have 6 or 8 folks in my party. Look forward to see all of you there.

Let me know what we can do to help with the food and any other prep'ing.

Danbo

We're getting ready for Talquin...shu's even re-doing his boat just for the event! We sure would like to have you folks come to our October 13th Slabfest at Lake Monore. You can WARM up and hone your skills not to mention see some BIG fish.

I am making plans to be down there for Slabfest that weekend...Maybe Hooker can make it down there that weekend to watch my back for me..Rofl

They have some extra large gators the have a taste for GA meat. Should be fun, you will need Curtis or Sam to watch your backRofl

I started plannin early this year. Just made my resevations at LTL. Will be there 11/9 in the pm. with my step daughter or son inlaw. Look forward to it.

Looking forward to seeing you there.:highfive

I will be glad to cook the hushpuppies again, if y'all want me to.

Lookin like I will be drivin up for the festivities. Dont want to pull the boat up from 2 in the am and fishing and pulling back home. Cant get off that Friday. So we will more than likely be at LTL waitin on yall to get in from fishin.

I'm sure we can fit yall in a boat somewhere...Come on up prepared to fish!!!!

I can do that too! Appreciate it!
