Want a slabfest on Lake Monroe, Sanford, FL
This is a quote from boatclub08 from another thread.
If you are interested in getting together at boatclub08 business and fishing Lake Monroe, LETS HEAR IT.
I don't know when would be the best dates, but name what you think and we can try to agree on a date.
We could have a picnic with cooked crappie caught that day along with all of the fixings that each can bring something to pass.
You can express your desire for day to fish, what you can contribute for the table fare ( salads, breads, drinks (tea, soft drinks, etc) paper plates, plastic eating utensils,paper cups, salt & pepper shakers. This is not a complete list.

I can also provide a digital scale for any weigh in that you guys may be interested in. There's also a public park next to the marina for a cookout (It's the same place Crappie Masters are having their weigh in on 01/31 - 02/01. And finally, I can offer 10% discounts on any tackle, and discounted live bait prices on minnows (sold by the dozen, 1/2 lb, or pound increments). Let me know if this interests any body, and I'll set it up and post all the information.

I have set the poll to run until Dec 31 to see what day the majority wanted to meet and if they wanted to fish and eat.
The way the votes are coming in it looks like EVERYBODY wants to EAT:eek::eek: Why should this surprise anyone????
As of today Sunday Dec 20, 2008, The majority wants to meet and fish on Saturday Jan 17, 2009. If the poll stays that way we will meet at Monroe Harbor Marina tackle store, In downtown Sanford off near I-4. 531 N. Palmetto Ave. Sanford, FL. 32771.
We will need to get a list of things that the members can bring for the picnic, such as eating utensils, disposable plates, salt, pepper, disposable drink holders, disposable table covers, salads, drinks (tea, soft drinks) oil to cook fish in, [I understand that one of those who voted already indicates he has a fish frier ] corn meal dredge for the fish. I am sure there are other things that one enjoys with fish that can,will be added to items being brought.
ANYWAY it should be a GOOD time for all.
THERE IS NO entry fee as this is just for good fellowship all around AND BRAGGING RIGHTS to the winner of the biggest and heaviest catches:D:D
