Lake Monroe Slabfest OCTOBER 11, 2014

Looks like we will kick off the season with a Lake Monroe Slabfest October 11th, 2014. We plan to have trophies for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners as well as a trophy for the biggest fish. The menu will be fried fish...chicken wings.....shrimp....coleslaw......spicy cheesy grits....etc. Might even have a special guest appearance by phantom309 in person!

Volusia county Lake Monroe Park, US 17-92 Time 7AM ( they usually let us in at 6:30AM)

Huntinslabs has done a fine job lately raising some spirits and getting folks excited about the upcoming season. Hopefully this will result in a record turnout!

We'll post a sign up sheet when we get closer to the event. As always, we welcome your ideas and comments.

Stu, all we have scheduled is a Slabfest in October and one in February (no date yet). We can discuss the in between months on the 11th. Russ came up with a proposed list of lakes we can discuss as well as dates.

If you all don't mind a Georgia transplant fishing with you, I will try and talk my brother-in-law into fishing with me. I tried to make it last year, but work got in the way.

Hey guys it has been a little while and since I sold my boat I have not been fishing. I have been busy with the new house, racing my cars, and everything else life has brought my way. But, I picked up a little Grizzly 1448 and if I can get it rigged in time for slabfest I will be there! Luckly I kept the trolling motor, electronics, and HiTek Holders along with all my other fishing gear! I know the 1448 is a dink but I been doing alot to it, to get the full potential out of it with a Mercury 9.9 2-Stroke for the horsepower restricted lakes!

FLYCASTER if you see this... Pending Inman59 +1

I attached a picture of both of my current rides!
