Need to get off my lazy butt and pick up a clone series frog before August 11th!

Oh that reminds me...  Is there going to be some sort of pairing thing here for boater/non-boater?

for last years rules see the above thread, start on page 3-4 for what a frog is, and around page 8 we picked teams and ended up with $15 each plus $5 for big fish (5.04lb last year ). so lets start getting a count of boaters vs non-boaters and get the frog hopping. insert frog joke, pun here.

mojo, will you be the money man this year?
we will need weigh-in scales too.

no rain, no rain, no rain

I have a couple Bass Frog Clones to try out this year. Look out!

[VinceR]

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but didn't we pick our own partners last year? That is, except where a boater wanted to fish, but had no partner or vise versa.

Oh, and DK, the rain never made it this far. I hear that it's possible that we might see some Wednesday. Fingers crossed.

[djkimmel]

Sheesh! It usually rains at Lake Ovid when there's rain nearby. Thought I heard some of you picked your own teams?

[YpsiBass]

I'm in as non-boater so looking to hitch a ride.

[MSURoss]

[MSURoss]

My buddy erik is fishing with me

[bosshawg]

still iffy on this.  debating to make a 1 day trip on this.  we camped last year but no can do this time.

what's are the hours for this?

[bob o]

this is shaping up just fine, oh yea don't forget to stop by the campsite after the tourny for some food and pops and listen to all the B.S. you can stand hahahaha

[bob o]

either way, as long as everyone has a ride we should be good to go

[djkimmel]

Mojo... did you buy a boat? I know you've been talking about it for a while. Oh, you might use Franks.

I now also don't have a truck. Late the evening before I was to leave for a surprise camera boat job, my brake fluid decide to squirt out the back somewhere up in the frame over the back axle near the shock. Didn't have chance before desperately seeking an alternative to figure out what blew or broke!

Trying to stop a 1-ton dually without power brakes and no bass boat is already more excitement than I can handle. I have the occasional nightmare about that as it is!

Luckily, my brotha Genie made a shrewd trade of my 09 Pontiac Vibe for his Chevy Truck and big ole Skeeter bass boat so I could still make the 3-day gig, albeit without not a single minute of sleep the first night... going to bed in a few minutes for about 10-11 hours now that I'm back home.

The little car was actually nice to drive - and it only took $40 to fill it up!!!!  Now getting in and out of the car was funny and might end up on youtube from a co-worker or something.

[bosshawg]

i'm in as a definate boater..  do i have a definate rider?  i know pairings sorta arranged, is this still good. i do have a co-interested, but said i was set.

I noticed you were driving it from the back seat!

My understanding is you can choose your own partner, or if you don't have one, bob o, Mojo, whomever will help you get paired up with someone else who doesn't have one. Or you can just ask someone.

I think that means you DO have a boat ? confirm ? If so we could try to get more coanglers, OR I could come up and drag your boat and leave Franks boat. Lemme know. I would rather not borrow, however, IT is last years champion boat !!!!!

My boat is still in 'rehab.' I traded Genie's truck and boat back for my 09 Vibe since it gets way better gas mileage when I don't have a boat to haul! I might already have a boater partner but he has not confirmed yet. I forgot we had talked about fishing this quite some time ago but he hadn't got permission yet. I will check again and try to get a decision from him, then let you know.
