MICDC Fall Gathering

It was great to see everyone last month at camp! Now it's time to plan for a fall gathering, and Tim (Flytier) and his wife Dar are hosting.

MICDC comes to Waffle Farms!

http://wafflefarm.com



Friday through Sunday September 22-24, 2017

Because the fall events fall during school sessions and many are hunters, they tend to be a bit smaller in attendance. For this reason we are calling our fall event a "gathering" as it better describes the feel of those events. There will still be plenty of food, fun, and fellowship. Tim and Dar will add any particulars to this thread, but those who want to be a part can copy/paste the link to Waffle Farms above to access their website and check out their great campground.

We held a camp here once before years back and they have a wonderful facility and super staff so your stay will be relaxing. Plan accordingly and hope to see you there!

We got our reservation in!
Thanks Tim and Dar for hosting this!

I "invited" a couple of known crappie dot com lurkers.

Morin a bit too far to drive but for sure i'm planning to be at the rose lake. sounds like a good time and talking trash. As a newbee to thee crappie clan , i've recevied alot of welcomes to the club which was pretty nice of all that invited me. I found out about the crappie people last week on mich out of doors. Was that at ford lake for the spring camp out, cause that looked like fishin fun Ok going to try some perchin on mullit lake did ok monday . would have gone more weather not good. later

LARE:

Welcome to the site. We did our Rose lake outing this spring (actually in June). The fall camp will be located on the Coldwater chain of lakes (Known as the Randall chain of lakes).

The show you saw this weekend was shot two years ago at Croton Hardy dam pond.

We may need to take Hip waders, because I am marked as a "Tentative" right now..........

Yup, we are waiting on the school schedule for school activities, for Band, & Marching Band.

If that weekend is clear, and free of obligations for my daughters & school activities, we are coming..........

Not exactly who the wife meant by "All" but we have it on the books, its in pencil, and hopefully it becomes INK, and I make it.

OE

The hip waders are for the fish stories we know are not true :Rofl

Holy Cow... If Aaron, AKA OneidaEagle, AKA BDG (Big Daddy Ginger) is going, I'm in!
Sorry, BSG (Big Sexy Ginger) is already taken. Brian enjoys that moniker!

Do I sense home made fries coming soon!!!

Real funny :) So this OCD I take it as beeing addictive? I would say i 'd rather have that than CRS . Well thanks for the update and will have to wait till the spring of ?:">?_+ that crs is kickin in Later Lare:fish

Lare,

We all have a great time no matter what we do. Many of us get together outside of our camps and enjoy the outdoors. From walleye fishing in Erie and Huron to Salmon on lake Michigan. If there is something you want to fish, there is probably someone willing to go.

Well if.....and that's a big IF OE makes it as well as Jerry, we might need to bring Wilbur the goat so they can finally get their ride in.

Personally I think they're afraid of Wilbur. Seems like whenever "the goat" gets mentioned, other obligations pop up. Just my observation. [emoji4]

Bring that Goat over, I have a ROASTER......

I've eaten goat. Not bad. Course, I've been to 30 some odd countries and have eaten meat on a stick. As many know, never ask what meat is on the stick unless you really care to know!

Wilbur isn't an eatin goat. He's a ridin goat.

I ain't afraid of no goat. Goat busters!

Just a thought about the dinner at fall camp, what if we had a seafood theme, for sides? Like crab salad, or any seafood side. No I don't mean deserts.

Isn't it always a seafood theme? As in, I see food, I eat food!"

I'm down for that idea. Fish chowder anyone

I'll bring the goldfish crackers

Thanks, We will bring crab meat salad.

Ive asked my son to smoke some of the kingfish I caught on my Florida trip and Ill make smoked fish dip/crackers out of it to bring

With the gathering just around the corner I thought I would ask what is need as far as supplies. I have a double basket fryer and a single basket fryer and propane tanks that I can bring if no one else is. I can also bring all the oil, fish coating, paper towels and serving pans for the fish fry. I can help cook the fish, too.

That sounds good, I'm thinking crappi 1 cannot make it,and I think we use his fryer I know yankee doodler likes to make those great hush puppies.

I will know for sure by Friday. As we get closer, and schedules/responsibilities fill in, its falling apart for us (My Family) as a family event.

Note: This is not a complaint, just normal for our family with so much going on at all times.

We have the Daughters Band performance at the home football game, the wife has to work Saturday, but they are all telling me that I still need to go..........(To the outing)

So by Friday I may be booking my campsite for 1, and will bring a bucket of fishing lies, a few truths, and my best fish poker face......

OH and Chaps, Wilbur can stay with me, if its cold, I will need to stay warm....................:Rofl

You could always carry over your blankie and knock on Steve and Judy's trailer. I'm sure they would take pity on you!

If I carry anything its going to be extra keys........

I'm going to sneak over to site #158, and THROW them at Jerry, and see how well he can CATCH.

He might not do well on dry land, we would have to walk down to the water, and then I can throw them in the water. He can catch them with his feet in 2.5 foot of water for SURE.

At Least that's my experience......

Steve is MUCH MORE experienced than I, you can tell by his grin when he says "I told Aaron NOT to do it............."

Aaron, you can bunk in our tent between me and Jeff. Thursday is beans and franks day at our camp so you may want to bring your gas mask. Bring one for Wilbur, too.
