I will see where we are at (thanks for all the help) on Sunday and do draw. I have  couple tables I can bring but haven't checked to food thread yet to see where we are at. I didn't have home Internet for almost 2 weeks so I'm playing catchup on all the messages and posts. Though tomorrow looks like a nice day so I will be practicing arm exercises with a fishing rod! ;D

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

I'm out.  My son graduates from MSU on May 7.  Just realized the conflict.  Have fun all.  Next year I will be a boater.

Okay, here is my tally as accurate as I know of boaters and non-boaters. We have 5 unmatched boaters and 10 unmatched non-boaters so we could use some more boaters or a number of volunteers to double up. If I received messages that are not on this thread I have forgotten them so you'll need to post a correction or contact me again. I prefer if all decisions to fish or not fish as a boater or non-boater are in this thread so I can keep better track. I do not see a post by LAPORTE or rkeller for example stating they are coming. I assume that was separate communication I'm not aware of?

x before a name means I have them coming as a boater or non-boater based on the posts in this thread. mx means I have them coming and they are already matched up with boater/non-boater. I will do a draw within the week after I see if this posing shakes anything out. I probably will not have my truck fixed in time for this event so I can't get my boat yet or I would help out.

If you're a boater willing to take 2 non-boater please PM me or post in here. You can also PM me if you feel you cannot take 2 non-boaters. That's your call, not mine. Thanks!

We can get by if boaters can take two people but another boater or two would help.

Kind of my point Bob.
especially when boaters are teaming up with boaters (unless there is boat repairs being done)

dartag

I have no problem with anyone pairing up before hand along as it stays a fun event.

BTW.  I am paying Team Houston's entry for winning the Guess the Classis winning weight.

I must be missing Bob O's point... Bob picked a partner as well, in fact, He's keeping more non boaters at risk because Mojo's pontoon could take all of us out.  :P


I have never fished this before and wasn't going too.... But since Mark twisted my arm I said yes.



It's not that I mind taking a stranger fishing, or bringing my boat, It's just I'd like to fish with Mark on St Clair once and seemed like the perfect opportunity.

Mark is almost a stranger to me as well and I wanted to get to know him better.

I just figure since Mike Szot and I coming over from the Sunset Side of the state, all my stuff will already be in his boat.  It's just easier to leave it in there and fish with him and his son than to swap it all over at the ramp (twice).  Besides, we are probably making one of the longer trips for this event and any unforeseen accident on the highway in front of us could delay our arrival, and I'd hate to arrive late and make a couple of guys wait for us.   Just easier I guess.

BUT, if someone absolutely HAS to fish with me, I'd be open to it.  For the right price of course.  I mean come on, all this fishing skill in your boat isn't going to be cheap!   That's right folks, I'm a RINGER on LSC.  LOL!!!   ;D ;D   8)
