Aka****clown convention...lmao

Hey guys let's keep it open at this point; but I can extend my place for a gathering again for the winter... no pressure just like last time... im sure groups will make plans to fish together while others will do their own thing... whatever suits the soul :) regardless, my place is open... how about some possible dates????

    Nothing wrong with April first, Jack. Sounds like a good spring time party. UFZ opens then, the lower river is far less crowded. I did great, this past one.
     
    Dime, I think you'll have to throw some dates out and see what happens.

    Jack, no reason why we can't do a spring gig also... I have a feeling the winter and spring may pan out in my favor and hopefully will make up for lost time on the water...

    Charlie you're right; give me some time and I will throw out a weekend, that's what we did for the late summer gathering and it worked out fine...

    Trevor, how are the shirts coming along ? ;)

    Well we all know how winter can be.hopefully storms wont affect peoples travels. I personally love the winter and would prefer tons of snow....

    I'm glad you would prefer it.   I'm thinking tons of snow to you guys is barely a small storm to us :0)    
    Personally,  I get sick of it.   At well over 200 inches (sometimes over 300) a year I get sick of plowing, shoveling and moving it.   I usually have to shovel my roof two or 3 times a winter.   A few years ago 120 some inches in a 5 day period just sucks.  
    This pile  off the garage roof is well over 12 feet tall.  I had to run the salamander and woodstove all day in there to get it to slide off.  The next week I had to get the back hoe out to knock it down so more could slide off.
    I am not so lucky on the house as it has shingles so it is roof raking the front and shoveling the back, then pushing it into a pile with the hoe.    This was NOT the 120 inch in 5 day winter.

    Me too and I'm well established in snow fall amounts..
    Snow SUCKS, you HAVE to deal with it, drive in it and freakin move it..

    Ice (cold) is Nice:
    just dress warmer, puts my feet on top of water and if you don't like it then just crank the heat up, no fuss no muss..

    DB I'll gladly send all our snow to you :)

    I love the snow when its falling and shortly thereafter - when everything is coated in white.

    I don't care too much about driving 3.5 hrs and arriving to this:



    Always carry a shovel,,, and a back brace...

    Clint I remwber that 120" . 2007??? believe that was recorded in parish???? I remember being up in january that year and there was nothing on the ground at all. That was a funny year. I hauled my kubota up around day 6 or 7 after that storm had started.... we about 6 foot of hard settled snow with a foot of powder on top. Would've been neat to see the snow total before it settled. It took 1.5 days to plow out with the tractor and I enjoyed every minute of it
    . I can imagine it does get old after living up there for years though.

    Drake; im with ya man ;)

    Hey randy as said man all board members welcome... glad to see and hear from all of ya...

    For the post totals; yeah at this rate rt might surpass me at the rate he's going...lol...

    I believe hot tuna had more than 2000 at one point but for some odd reason a bunch of the old time posters started losing a posts ... seemed to have happened after they were working on the site a few months back.... fortunately I am really just a novice angler so my total stayed the same ;)

    Hopefully in the next week I can narrow down a weekend and try to get something set in stone....later...

    I'm addicted to Al Gore's interweb!!!!
    Actually, my sole means of financial support requires me to be hooked up to one of these nitwit boxes for more hours a day than I care to admit, and I am so flippin intelligent that I can multi-task by having multiple applications open simultaneously on my Pee-See. If I stared at nothing more than spreadsheets all day I'd cry big man tears.

    RT is retired and lives the life of leisure.

    HT is resident expert on anything/everything Adirondak.

    DB, on the other hand, carries one of them smart phones that require the use of 50% of the human brain to operate. Probably splainz why he sets it on vibrate to notify him whenever someone else posts anything here at FishUSA.. (the frequent mispellings in his posts are because he does not type with his finger).

    yyyyeeeehhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

    Hey draker; don't have vibrate setting on yet but maybe should do it as it would kill 2 birds with one stone if you know what I mean... ;)


    In all seriousness though; I need this phone to do my daily operations as well... constant need for internet, banking, emails, text messaging, reminders, material pricing/orders/ , and sometimes upwards of 75 phone calls on the bad days; this phone allows me to do all of that while bouncing around from meetings/estimates/job sites.... and through it all I get to tune in to this place.

    Oops; sorry for the life chronicle metal slayer...lol
