We could use 2 helpers for ~30 minutes after the show ends Sunday for tearing down, and packing the booth and materials into my car. That would be awesome if you can help!?! All volunteers will be added for a year to the special GLBass Friends group if not already in there (extended otherwise). And you will have my eternal thanks and appreciation (which you can remind me about ;D)!

BOOTH VOLUNTEERS SUMMARY
You will get more details in the private volunteers area of the forum. You will be able to see it once I add you to the temporary show group. I will state a few things now. I need people who can talk to others in an outgoing, friendly fashion about joining the websites - mostly GreatLakesBass.com and GreatLakesIceFishing.com, handing out stuff and just answering general questions about fishing. NO ALCOHOL in the booth. No sales or giveaways of items not pre-approved by me before the show. I can lose my booth from that.

This is only a 10x10 booth so there's not a lot of room for extra friends, family and stuff in the booth. Please NO extra people behind the table or blocking the table front who are not on the volunteer list. Much of the time I can run the booth with one extra person being nice for help and breaks. There are the potentially busy times afternoon-early evening Thursday (KVD), mid-Friday and mid-morning to early evening Saturday where 2 helpers might be nice.

I will also have be away from the booth from some time to be announced later Saturday, January 13, afternoon for the Ultimate Bass Clinic I help Wayne with - usually ~2pm to ~5pm. Extra help during that time is very much appreciated!

The schedule can be adjusted to accommodate people willing to help who can't fit one of the existing time slots. The slots are just approximations. THANK YOU!!!!

Spring bass fishing can be some of the most fun fishing you have all year long.  It's hard to beat Lake Erie for a great numbers of Largemouth that are in it's waters.  When the winds get bad on the lake, there is always somewhere to dip the boat in and have a fun day of fishing.  Hope everyone has a blessed Thanksgiving.

Giant Spider and West Harbor Lake Erie Fishing Video

One of the largest spiders I've seen in northwest Ohio.  Have you ever had a creepy crawler crawling all over you, and you didn't even know it?  This fishing trip had an unexpected visitor who thought it was a good idea to crawl across my hat, ear, and eyebrow!  Fishing West Harbor of Lake Erie can produce mixed results.  There are days when you have to go through a wide variety of lures to get the bites.  This was one of those particular days where the bite was tough.  I rotated through enough lures and areas to put together a decent fishing day on the lake.  Come along bass fishing with R & J Bass Fishing on Rumble.     #fishing #lures, #spider, #scary #Lake #Erie #lake #erie #GreatLakes #west #harbor #video #videos #sports #news
