It was a great event. We had some rain come through, but it was minor. Thanks to Danny for the eats, and thanks to my FIL and Flycaster, and the Shumeister for frying it up.

Vic ....anchorman....and eliene.....Virginia friends

Thanks for posting, both of you. I wanted to be among you, it just wasn't to be. Glad all went well and some fish were caught. I'm extra jealous that I missed CG1's cake, it looked wonderful. Some excellent food and better company, the next time I can only hope to attend.

GREAT TIME. Glad to have met up with all attendees.
THANKS to Danny (Phantom309) for the great shrimp and crappie filets. You were the MAN.
Miss ya BiLLBOB. Hope to see you on your coming visit.

Speckanator just sent his jet out for him. Should be here as soon as they find enough crappie cooking grease to fuel that jet back here.

Let us know when he arrives. Need to go out to lunch.
Let someone else cook.:Rofl
But then I should be eating green salads.rotfl:twocents

Everything is a OK, thanks again for the day.

Dang Looks like you guys had a great time ,wish I could have been there RR

My two MO buddies had a blast and were very grateful for the warm welcome you all gave them. Good tips you gave them as they havn't had the best success catching crappie there. Will be there to show them, again, how it's done in couple weeks and hope to hook up with CDC members then.

Shu's second home... his primary home probably has a Reed Roof. LOL!

Another 1 in the books, THANKS Slab for holding the event...heck of a selection of eats, good to see some familiar faces as well as meet some new, Yobuck that was some awesome summer sausage, pleasure meeting you & your wife, Danny thanks for taking us back to tradition with a twist of shrimp as well CG1 w/cake glad you & hubby made it out...big THANKS to cooks & set-up crew, Vic for the baits, thumbs-up & Shu for the jig info & jig bait...always learning something at each event. Hope to see everyone again soon on-the-water w/tightlines......BB hope this last surgery brings a successful & much needed recovery!
