Post by: dartag on January 06, 2017, 09:13:02 PM
We having one this year.  I know it's almost to late in the year to schedule one. 8) 8)  But lets give it a try.    May 6th looks like a good day.

Only thing is Bed Fishing gives guys that don't get out there a lot there best chance to catch fish.  Last year we were in there the week before and caught everything on Bladed and Jerk baits.

i seem to do just fine when they aren't on beds!

schedule it the sunday before the MI Legislature outing deal, then i can go and just stay an extra night.

I thought about doing that but went with the weekend before to stay around the same time. I was thinking there's a problem when I go to that next weekend for some reason??

Sounds like a great idea. Then we will have a good idea of where to go on Monday for the Michigan legislatures.

Makes for some funny posts. I guess I could switch it real quick to Saturday, May 13 instead if that works out for everyone??

Would be much easier for me if it were on a Sunday (kind of selfish I know, but with work it's a lot easier to fish on a Sunday).

While I was in the Army they put my entire unit in the field for training Mother's day weekend....Let's just say alot of brass found out how much power a bunch of angry Army wives have.. :o..That never happened again.. ;)..Don't mess with Mama's day....

You have a 50/50 chance of hitting my work weekend and seems like every year it is on that weekend....Everyone has a schedule and it's near impossible to accomodate everyone...

Strong chance Yukon Jack and Mojo will get out for the DK Open in his boat.

And I promise, it we have a non boater imbalance of +3 or +4, or have a wheel chaired non boater, I'm bringing Crew Zen out for the event  :o
