Jimmy Jam Boys!!!

I was planning on hitting Eagle and Paradox Lake the weekend of 9/12-9/13; however, that could be easily modified to a Ballston/Saratoga/Round Lake outing followed by a monster BBQ/Camping expedition at my house in 'TOGA.  We have 1/2 an acre with plenty of room for boats and trailers and tents and you get the idea.  We are fully equipped with both a gas and charcoal grill. I am about 10 minutes from all three lakes.

If people are interested in something like that let me know.  The only thing is that is the only weekend I have open in September, and it is soon so if something's happen, its gotta happen quick.

Let me know.

Oh man...  Here we go!
 
For the record too:  Lee's Campground on Saratoga Lake is a really cool place, and always a REALLY good time when I have stayed there after concerts at SPAC and stuff.  They have a ramp of their own (exactly one dollar less than the State Ramp next door- that cracks me up) and lots of room.
 
Its a Mom n' Pop operation so it is surely a different 'vibe' than a NY State Park or the equivalent.  They have tent sites that are just an open field along the lake- right in front of the docks along Fish Creek near the 9P bridge.  Anyone's trucks, trailer, tents, etc. could be parked anywhere.  And you can sleep right next to your car.
 
Hell, people could bring a camper if they felt like it.
 
Just thought it might be worth mentioning   Obviously, there is a considerable heavier 'presence' on Saratoga Lake and people might have to actually behave a bit, but Lee's Campground means no need to load the boat on the trailer after fishing, and a chance for breakfast and morning session, of course.
 
Sadly, my free weekends are few and far between for quite awhile.  Lots going on, and also lots of hot fishing! 
 
Hope we can get 'the old band back together' again real soon!
 
Ah hmmm...  Indian Lake also has some KILLER islands you can rent CHEAP too, by the way.  We could have three sites on one island and have it all to ourselves...  Pike, Trout, Bass, Pannies....  I'm just sayin'
 
 

I'm down for either; what really matters to me is the date.  I was thinking about it and thought that Round Lake might be a good bet being that it is smaller and might be easier to cover for everybody with a smaller boat, but Saratoga is fine too.

I propose the following:

Anyone who wants to hang a bit Friday night (9/11) can come by, eat some moose, and crash here; I have 2 extra beds, plenty of room for trailers, pool table, 10x10 screen house, and plenty of room for tents, etc.  We can meet at any lake we determine on Saturday (9/12) and fish like crazy, then all return here for a Moose-b-cue Saturday evening.  Anyone who wants can crash here, and there's enough room to avoid bad weather if it is an issue.

Post if interested so we can start to look at numbers.  It will never be a JJ II, but we can have a good ol' time.  Feel free to offer any variations to this plan.

Can't wait for the Winter Jams.  Happy hunting and fishing!  I'll be in touch soon for some expert advice on Noodle Rods.  

I wish I had an Uncle Jimmy!

I know what ya mean Tuna, I tend to lean toward the whitetail hunting myself

If your thinking of Lee's make sure you check and see if they are renting tent space. The health department sited them for sanitation issues after the Dave Mathew concert a couple months ago. I know they didn't rent tent space out for the Phish concert because of it but don't know if it was just for the Phish concert or other times as well. Here is the article...
