Ok, it was just an idea. Trying to help out. I don't know how important the electric outlets are? Just an FYI for everyone they have been doing construction to make the one lane bridge a two lane bridge, so you have to drive all the way around. I don't know when it will be down.

Fished the DHALO area by drakes well today, a guy stopped by as we were leaving and told us about the fuel spill :-(

Anyway, theres two palominos in the DHALO area there! saw one and caught one. The guy with the hooked jaw rubbed flat and raw at the tip, a scar on his back, and a damaged right pectoral fin was the one that tussled with me today. Also, a few fish were taking stones on top. Enjoy the outing and the park guys.

So there's isn't any camping in the park but there is a KOA close by? Thinking of coming up saturday if some of yinz are gonna be there and stay till sunday.

It appears that Sunday, May 16th is obviously the most popular date to have the outing, so let's go with it. Most usually fish in the morning, then we meet around noon at one of the pavilions beside the creek, once you travel over the steel bridge at Petroleum Center. (Oil Creek State Park)

It time for a roll call of those planning on attending and what you can bring (food, plates, etc.) to the picnic Sunday, May 16th. I will update this list daily.

1) beerman - pop + water
2) Mikastorm - hamburgerssssssssss
3) tank7791 - chips

You want primitive, as in no toilets?   I've got a spot for you.

Just to clarify, the date is Sunday May 16? What time is everyone planning on getting there? My wife always says that if I would listen the first time....

Yes, the date is Sunday, May 16th. Dallas and I will probably try to be there shortly after sun-up to snag the big pavillion ....that is if it is not already reserved.

On the day before, Saturday May 15th, a few guys from this site are also getting together. I think this is great for those that want to fish Oil Creek, but can't be there on Sunday. Saturday is the "ice breaker" and Sunday is the "Outing", LOL!

so, just like, roll in whenever?
is there an estimated time to eat, or anything else social?

I have a derby bout that saturday, but if I skip the afterparty, or just not get trashed the night before, we might decide to come. If I'm going to bring food, I'd like to have an idea of what time to get it there :)

Only if you wear your glitter jeans......

I hope to attend .......

We are going to do it all.

Oil Creek outing is a close second to the great times at the one fly outing.
