Got a decent group of folks heading over there for next weekend. Going to do a crawfish boil Friday evening and a fish fry Saturday evening.
I'll be in my minitoon, the "Knotty Hooker." Lonehunter will be running around in his Lund, and we'll have a half dozen or so other boats out and about.
If any of ya'll are around, swing out for a bite to eat either evening or holler at us on the water!
Nice, enjoy your time & hope ya'll catch lots. That place is a great place to stay & fishing in that area is good "old Florida at it's finest".
First time I ever found that place I really enjoyed the seclusion & beauty of the untouched river environment. The same family has owned it for years
and they're great people to deal with.
Going to be a blast, hope to see a few of you out there.
Any intel on if they have improved their ramp any or is it still launch and leave with no dock or anywhere to tie up?
Gee sounds great. Who's going from here?Quote:

Our groups has all of the cabins booked and a decent chunk of the campsites, I think we'll be cooking out in "The Hammock" area.
I can't promise as I have to work next Saturday but thanks for the invite just the same. It would be good to rub elbows with some good folks. Should I get over there, I'll be wearing the Crappie.com shirt and hat. Hope to see you.

Sounds like a Great plan Nick! :fish Hope y'all have a fantastic time. :ThumbsUp
Regards
Yuall have fun
A great time was had by all!
Fishing was a bit tough. Everyone struggled on Friday, with I think maybe 5 fish being caught across 7-8 boats. Saturday it turned on a bit when it started to rain and some folks put some fish in the boat.
I only saw a handful of beds the whole time I ran my side imaging and only 2 of the bluegill had eggs out of the 30 or so I cleaned, so I don't know if we missed them or they haven't spawned yet in that area. Leaning towards the latter because of the lack of beds. All the fish were caught in the river, no one did any good in the lakes.
The gators are definitely getting active!
Highland park is a great area with some nice cabins, dockage for your boat and a bait shop right there for your convenience. It is an manatee zone for about 4 miles either direction, but it doesn't appear anyone pays any attention to that.
Thanks for the report, Nick. Was sure everyone was going to have a fun time.:ThumbsUp
Regards
Is this the park Ginnie and her husband stay?

I suggest you PM her, if she doesn't respond, then call it quits, if folks know how
to get ahold of me and don't respond to my request, I let em go etc, etc, etc .....
I ain't gonna fond over anybody that hasn't got the common courtesy to reply
to my request to communicate with them, etc, etc, etc ......
Actually, I'd probably develope somewhat of an attitude toward them,
(What, you don't, even, at the minimunist, have enough consideration of me to even talk about it, not even to just say bye/so long/we don't like you anymore ???
Yeah, I would develope quite an attitude toward someone if they just abandonded and never talked to me ever again.
(Ha ! ! ! I have a brother that is just exactly the case) LOL ..... One day he said that I said "Gosh D**ned" too much, and I haven't heard a word from the fellow in two years now, So just the other day I sent him an E-mail and told him what a low life,................... he was etc, etc...(He's not any of these things but I felt good telling him) etc, etc, etc .... Ha ! ! What the hey,..... he ain't gonna reply.
And I feel much better .....

Several times I have talked to her and told her to call you and she says yes, she's going to do that, but
apparently she never does because you always ask me to ask her again, and again, and, again etc, etc ,,,
I just hate to see you fonding over her/anyone that has no good reason not to call you etc, etc..
I would tell you that even though they are indeed good folks and we all enjoy their company, they have just "moved on",
not just from you, but from all of us. They're salt water people now, I don't think they even fish for crappie anymore.
I don't think they even went shrimping this year (taking care of her parents) etc ..... And where they live now was
prime shrimp territory this year, all I've seen on the shrimp forum from her neighborhood was "5-gal's, 5-gal's, everybody
up there were getting 5-gal limits ......
I know you are fond of her but c'mon, if she's not going to call, just let it go ........ Perhaps one day you'll run into her
and then "BINGO" ya'll will have a great reunion etc, etc ....
I don't know why she doesn't call ya, she acts like she loves ya and is going to call, but I guess she just doesn't get around to it etc.....
And, I believe we have successfully hijacked Nick's thread (again, hijacking someone's thread) this stuff we're talking about properly
should be conducted in PM ............
Sorry for being so blunt in the other posts, as I tell my wife, "I hate to be ........ blunt" LOL ......
I can tell ya they are very busy and home seldom. They are headed to Atlanta this weekend where husbands job is at this year and she flies out west somewhere tomorrow for 5 months for her job.
