Hey folks,

If you haven't checked it out already, take a look at where YOU could be going this year with a group of crazy bass anglers just like you!!

roadtrip.bassresource.com

If there's any way at all for you to make this trip, do it.

I will see some old friends, from previous trips, and make some new friends.

Lots of fun, good company, fisherman from all over the country, what's not to like?

And the fishing; it's the icing on the cake.

See ya there.

For those arriving early, the Second Annual Saturday Night Wine & Cheese Soiree will be whenever we get it together Saturday evening.

This is when we make Long Mike drink wine that did not come out of a box. ;D ;D ;D ;D

You will have a chance to see, and maybe

even hold, this trophy rod:

Kent is someone spending some MONEY?

Pitchinkid bought the rig and I suspect

he will bring it with him to Pickwick. There

are a lot of guys with custom rigs, but this

one is probably the king daddy!

Now he just needs to learn how to use it and buy some baits to throw.

;D

There will be a $1 fee for looking at the rod and a $5 for holding the rod. All proceeds go to the KPFGD foundation. (Keep Pitchinkid From Getting Divorced). Paypal is accepted in advance.

How much to actually fish with it? 

$50 supervised. $100 unsupervised. Background checks will be performed at the lodge on Sunday.

I hope your wife doesn't mind all those hands on your rod.

i'm call Kents boat! ;D

I hope your wife doesn't mind all those hands on your rod.

Now that's some funny junk right there!

I hope your wife doesn't mind all those hands on your rod.

Once she finds out what he paid, those will be the last hands on his rod.

Put me down for 1 day, unsupervised. I am going to start working on a good excuse as to how I lost it. :

being from Illinois, i doubt you can pass the background check. lol  ;D

Special request to all the newer members:

If any of you are remotely thinking of the road trip, PLEASE go!! Last year was my first and I was nervous as hell going in where angels fear to tread. I was at the Kentucky Lake Resort earlier than anyone else and the first two people I met were Road Warrior and Big O. A couple of short intros with these two guys and it felt just like home. It turned out that every last one there was as approachable as a big ribeye sided with mushrooms and onions.

Make your plans now and be there. Trust me, you'll never have a better vacation. And the new friends you make..........you'll never forget 'em!! I would only add that you would need to be on the look out for men with furry hoods, defective chairs, and empty wine boxes that you may trip over.

One more thing, if you haven't ever been in a boat with over a 50 hp, get ready for some amazing g's

So sign on newbies and get set for the ROAD TRIP of a life time!!

Probably not.

I could run for Governor though.

Ya right!  you don't have the hair for it. ;D

Thanks Pal.

When you get to my age, I hope you still have your hair. ;D

Lol, that's quality stuff

I wish you all a safe trip and a great time.

I wish I could attend, but my budget this year is absolutely stinko, so I will not be able to afford it this time due to the pitiful state of the economy. My wife lost her job, and my business is going REALLY tough times right now because NOBODY is spending.

Are there any mini-meets or the such planned this year up in the northeast ???

How much to touch it in the bushes, I am a bit shy.

LOL. For you Leo, free of charge.
