The 6th Annual BassResource.com Roadtrip dates are set! Make plans now to be at Kentucky Lake, Kentucky, April 17-22, 2011!!

The lake should be at the peak of pre-spawn/spawn at this time, and the fishing is expected to be fantastic!

Not only do you have a shot at catching a trophy bass, but you'll get to meet other members from the forum, and meet the BassResource.com staff. And of course, everyone will be up to their fun antics!

We will be staying at Moors Resort (https://www.moorsresort.com/). The lodge (which is nice) has 24 rooms available, all with 2 queen beds, a full bath, microwave oven, small refrigerator, coffee pot, hairdryer, cable television, FREE high speed Internet, DVD player, telephone and all the comforts of your own room at home for $72 a night (cheaper if you share rooms)... information and friendships...priceless! ALL cabins and rooms are non-smoking. Smoking is allowed in outside areas. They also have a MASSIVE grill on a trailer that they will provide for our use. In addition, they are completely set up for bass anglers - there is ample parking for boats with hookups, plus the marina offers covered and uncovered boat slips with electric service available for daily rentals (Please ask to make boat slip reservations when reserving your room). It is easy to understand why Moors Resort & Marina hosts more fishing tournaments than any other facility in the region. Please note there are no camping or RV facilities at the resort.

You are responsible for your room reservation

We cannot hold any rooms because of high demand. So if you want to stay at the lodge, you need to book immediately. They only have one other week next year that is not already booked. Yes, it's that popular!

A one night deposit is required for each room. Deposits ($72 plus tax) are NON-refundable but are transferable.

Call Kelli at 1-800-626-5472 to make your reservation. You MUST mention group code Bass Resource in order to get your reservation. Note that the rooms fill up very fast, so we cannot guarantee you a room. If you don't make reservations right now, you might wind up staying elsewhere as they could already be completely booked!

Those of us that do attend will have a blast! Those that don't will always wonder what they've missed!

See what Bill Dance has to say about Kentucky Lake

For those flying to the event......

Nashville is the best airport to get you close. If you send Long Mike a PM with your flight #s and arrival time we will try to arrange transportation from the Nashville airport. Also if you will be driving in from the East and passing through or near Nashville, please send him a PM as you may be able to pick up a member at the airport on your way in. If we work together, we can get everyone to the lake.

For those who haven't been and might be uncertain if you'll fit in....don't worry, you will, we'll make sure of it! :)

More information and news will be posted on this thread regarding who's going, who's cooking, who's bringing boats, who needs back seats, etc.

See you there! NO EXCUSES!

Many thanks to Deb, Greg (R520dvx), Long Mike, and the Mods for putting this together!! There's a lot of hard work behind the scenes in determining a location and arranging accommodations. These folks did a stellar job!!

About time!  ;)

I've been looking for this announcement since I got home from Pickwick.  Unless something unforseen happens, I'll be there. 

I'll be driving from Mass.  Anyone along or near the route I'll be taking, and wants to share travel expenses (tolls and gas), and driving duties is welcome to hitch a ride.  Have room for two or three comfortably.

RW and I have booked a lovely chalet nestled on the waters. We are looking forward to sharing the jacuzzi after a hard day of fishing.

Please don't tell our wives. ;D ;D ;D

Hey guys I just wanted to applaud your selection! I live just a few miles away and our club launched out of moors last summer. My family turned it into a little get away and my pops, uncle, mother. and niece and nephew all stayed down there for a couple nights. We had a great time and we;ve been dying to go back ever since. We stayed in one of their cottages that they seem to have many of. No wifi is offered in the cottages though btw or at least not in ours. The fishing should be terrific with even some good small mouth spots not to far away. Each year is different but I'm betting it will be about 1 or 2 weeks prespawn about that time around here. I'm going to have to talk to my boss at work to get the final ok but otherwise you can sure count me in!!

Count me in too, I was mad I missed out on last years. Back to Kentucky Lake I see. 

I had a blast down there with everyone back in 09, Hopefully we have a good turnout like then too.

Well.... I decided to go. But i am only going to be able to stay up during the weekend so if there is anyone in Memphis and/our surrounding areas I have no problem driving you up there as long as you split the gas with me. You will probably have to find a ride back unless you want to leave that early.

Update: Oh forgot to ask the important question. Does anyone have an open seat in there boat? Oh by the way sorry if I'm sounding sort of rude but if anyone wouldn't mind it would be great if I could tag along in someones boat I won't be no bother or atleast I will try not to be.

Count this Old Codger on showing up, dragging along a green colored Lund and a wife determined to load the boat with 2lb crappie.  All it took for her was a few pictures of those specks and she WAS NOT staying home.

We've got cottage #1 from Sat. -to- Sat.

I sure hope she lets me do a little bass fishing, or I might have to bum a ride with somebody!   ;D

Haven't been to a roadtrip yet. What can I expect besides fishing and partaking in consumption of alcoholic spirits ?

Lots of laughs, lies, and LongMike bragging about his alarm system and GPS Minnkota. Last year was my first.  It was everything I hoped it would be, and more.

Myself and Old Cranky are in. We have our cabin booked and will be there Saturday night for the wine tasting. Some of my homebrew will travel with us. One way only.

RW and I have our cabin booked. I sure hated to drop over $200 for the non-refundable reservation so far in advance, because the doctors told me I have only three months to live. On the bright side, RW has promised that he will refund my money if I die. Now, that's a stand-up guy!

Rhino, have I mentioned that I just installed a Lowrance HDS-8 with sidescan?  I doubt that I will ever brag about my alarm system again (although it still works great.)  However, be prepared to watch an incessant display of the images captured with the HDS.  Uh, if I could catch a few bass. that would be even better.

Hey Mike, if you die.....does that mean RW gets your share of my Mudpie ???
