    Contrary to previously published messages, Northern Snakeheads do NOT have to be killed in Virginia waters. Since all of Pohick Bay is located in Virginia, you may keep, kill or release snakeheads cau

That's 4 of the boats that were able to take multiple participants , we are out of options for this event , unless anyone has any other ideas , I have exhausted every option I have with no interest with participation, even outside of this website , I will keep trying my best to find more support, if no other ideas or interest is shown by Wednesday my suggestion would be to cancel this event , everyone ok with that ?

Hey guys, I can't make it this year.

 

With wife's hip and back problems I can't take the chance of being so far away and she being home alone.

 

Will be thinking of you all on the 24th.

Thoughts and prayers Sam , hope your wife gets better , I know she has been struggling with this for some time now , I will miss seeing you again and maybe recreating another folly at the ramp episode , God bless !

Sad part of it all, I haven't been out all year and probably won't be. I haven't even yet renew my fishing license. I'm at least hoping to hunt this year. Not even sure yet on that.

I feel your pain endless, I have only been out once this year myself, had opportunities to go with others and funds would not allow it, family is always first , but dang it would be nice to get out more often , I hope things work out well for you and your family endless, thoughts and prayers for you all !!

Thanks Nitro, I'm going to be up your way alot this winter with work. Maybe we can get some cold weather fishing in...or a couple of beers.

So is this a bust or are people still going to show up?

This one fell apart , I have no option but to call it off , over all we have lost too many that we needed for support , this has been a really weird summer , I just could not get things to line up the way they normally do , but the only thing left to do is offer my sincerest apologies , I will say this , the Potomac showed a lot of promise , more than I was prepared for , trying to locate boaters among other things for this event, just took what extra time I had and I lost touch with the thread as well , nobody's fault but my own , Sorry guys !

Ah don't worry about it my friend, just remember: "Trying is the first step towards failure!"...Homer Simpson :eyebrows:

I believe I owe an apology for my backing out on this one.  If not for the death of my Mother In Law, this may not have been the case.  I will extend an offer... anyone who wishes to come down here... come on down.  Fish with me and we'll have a great time on Smith Mt. or Leesville.

Sorry to hear about your mother-in-law. Thoughts and prayers to you and the family.

 

Seems this year's Meet and Greet is snakebit.

 

You can't go; I can't go; Traveler tore his lower unit off the motor; and we just did not have the turnout we expected.

 

Hopefully next year.

Let's not give so much lead time a month and a half is plenty.

No apology is necessary Paul, Family comes first and everyone respects that.  If I haven't said it before, I'm sorry for you loss.

 

I'll extend the same offer to anyone wanting to fish the Potomac when I get my boat back.  Just shoot me a PM and we'll see what we can do.  Weekdays during the summer are better because the weekend anglers, boaters, and jet-skiers are just plane rude around here; the boaters and jet-skiers should lighten up after school starts.

I can not begin to tell you how sorry I am, thoughts and prayers to you and your family my friend !!

 

You least of all need to think you owe an apology, you know how I feel about that !!!

 

I will be getting some dates together and I hope to spend some more time down your way soon, thanks for the invite !!!!
