it looks like March 4th this year, same place, some of the same stuff too and hopefully more stuff, food will be a couple batches of my chili, people can bring what they want to share, pizza, subs, chips, light beer or real beer, i will also have a keg of home brew for the brave.
The silent auction will go on just like last year, so if you over spent at the tackle shop (as if) or santa gives you some duplicates or if you pour plastic or lead, please bring a few things for the auction table, anything will do, gas cards, outboard oil. last year we even had a chainsaw. New or used everything seems to get sold, except the trout fishing stuff it usually goes back home with the owner.
the proceeds will be going to the Big Bass for Breanna fund https://www.facebook.com/BB4Bre/
let me know if i forgot anything
same location:
15675 Oporto
Livonia Mi 48154
734.788.0155
Remind me when it gets closer. I'm sure I can offer up some lead products...
PS: anyone that may have some lead hanging around their house, I would love to put it to use for something like this. Please get it to me before the swap meet, Or just bring it with you. ;)

next year we will have to get our dates set
I think this year could be the biggest to date
This event is less than two months away. If anyone has any Lucky Craft pointer 78s they don't want anymore, bring them along, that's what I am looking for. I have some 100s to trade.
we already have donations coming in
Bob, can I donate a Dobyns rod? This would be any rod on Dobyns' website.....winner could pick the one they want.
anyone care to match or beat this one

I don't recall seeing a 997.
My buddy changed his mind about selling it.. sorry
Thanks to Bob and Karen for once again housing us fishing hoodlums for an afternoon. It's always good to see everyone again, and to meet some of the new - to - me guys. Mojo's mystery tube was a lot of fun. (sorry bob) The coolest item in the tube was a duo -realis g87 20a in prism gill color. (check it out @ TW) Team Houston wanted that one. Sorry. I Can't wait to take it out for a swim. Also included was a deep crank that Cheetum custom painted what looks like a number of years ago. Rapala jerk bait, zara spook, and some unidentified crank, a hat and a couple sacks of soft baits were included in "the Tube". If you've never attended before, try to make it next year, bring some stuff to donate, swap,eat, or drink, and hang out with folk that loves fishing as much as you....
ya, know any one can donate to the TUBE, i'll be doing that next year
