Here is just a list of the boaters and non-boaters I have down right now.
Some of the boaters are bringing family members, new members or friends along and are already taken (in red) so even though I have 27 boaters, I don't have 27 available. This should still be the biggest turnout! 14 boaters available with maybe 1 more having to cancel for family reasons as of 5/10/2011.

If you do not see your username on one of these lists, you better contact me and set me straight!
Unless someone wants to donate a few hundred, I'm a nonboater now. Oil pump is done on the boat, don't have the money to fix it right now. Still planning on coming over, though that can change at any time too. If I find a generous soul I will let you know if I'm still coming as a boater. Sorry for messing up the numbers Dan, not my intention.

hey fire fighter jeff(KVD) Get your butt on the boater side!! Or maybe Dan will squeeze you and my b-in law together on my boat. And he brings a lot of "extra" rods.
Sorry Dan Im out... Just found out it's day of my daughters Prom...

i thought that was a night time type thing, have the wife take some pics and BadaBing it's like your there
If it helps, Dan, I can be a non-boater. Not a problem. Just let me know if you want to move me to the other list.
The non-boater list, that is...not THAT other list! :D
I should be paired up with Capt. Charlie.

Unfortunately, I need boaters. I was tight on boaters and now I'm down maybe 5 boats. As usual at this one every spring... I hope you can stay a boater. Let me know.
Hey DK my 95% is now 100 %. I hooked up with Mike and plan on riding over with him. I know you probably don't want to hear from another nonboater, but if it works out at this late date let me know, if not I totally understand.
Hey Dan, as you know I signed up as a non boater. I was hoping to get paired up with someone that has fished St. Clair more than me, so maybe I can learn more about the lake, and not spend the gas money hauling the boat that far. But if you need boaters I can haul it it up. Just as long as some of the experienced St. Clair guys give me some way points. !!!! LMAOOOOOOOO :D ;D jk jk jk I can bring the boat if needed. Let me know. Jeff
Oh and Brad, I plan on fishing with you that weekend. You better make arrangements. :)
I can be a boater still. No worries.
I'm not the LSC expert though.
But I'm totally there.
Hey - My GLB friends, sorry to say, I'm the Director of Waterford Little League, and we have picture day on the 14th. At best I would have to be back in Waterford by 2 - pm.. At worst 10 am.
So worse case - cannot fish, but will coordinate with one of you awesome guys to get the supplies I promised for the event.
Best Case -Be paired with a boater who isnt fishing all day and can come in around noon or 1 pm. (Or is fishing Muskamoot Bay and can run me across to the dock ::) :o ;D )
Chime in for any input or help .....
Mojo
I am planning of fishing the moot or fisher bay. if you want to ride with me I can bring you back when ever you need to. if you don't make it let me know and i can pick up what ever you have. i live on close to you on union lake.

If I can find someone to answer a question about my motor, my boat is seaworthy and Veronica and I wont need a ride. May even take Suckerslayer with me, although I didnt want his first time on St Clair to be with another amature. Anyone who knows about motors, please call me. 810-394-1820. Don L changed my impeller last fall. I never really got a chance to try the boat afterwards. I hooked it up to those ears yesterday, and just a spit of water is coming out at idle. I need to know if my motor is going to make it. Thanks
Mike if you have a trolling motor on your rig you can have a great time in the metro canals. It is great fun for kids, I take my 4 year old all the time. Dan I will give you a 60-40 chance, I will attend as a boater. All I ask is that you pair me with one guy and not three, my rig has small deck space. I will even throw a bone to all the guys that are not familiar with LSC. The fish are very scattered right now, the best bet for LSC Rookies is to work 6-8 FOW on the mile roads; no one spot is the key you will have to work in and out until you lock on the pre spawners. I spent the last two weeks running around, the water is still cold but should warm to the high 50's low 60's by the weekend. Hope this helps. For LSC First timers, if you genuinely need a starting point, give me a call (586) 404-2749. Chris
Dan,
I can bring my boat if that will help. Let me know

We are on Jeff. Right after the cook out. Only if you get that si working though. JKJKJK

Brad, you really know how to hurt a guy !!!! lol
To much drama ..... I got the prom thing taken care of Dan but now my transmission is out in my trusty exploder. I'm thinking a back seat on Saturday is what I need.
I'm in as a CO now..

Don,
I may be able to help you if you just need a tow vehicle for the day, let me double check with Paula.
Scott
Dan - you can swap me to the boater list.
You can put me in as a boater
Hey Justin with you going over to the boater side I might get off the belly tube tow behind list.

Me too! I think I can make that happen!!! Bring cameras!! ;D
Let me see where I'm at today. Played hookie and went fishing yesterday. Just getting caught up right now with all the messages and updates through this morning. Then I'll respond to the rest of the boater switch helpers.

I try not to put two inexperienced people together as much as I can help. Thanks.
Getting closer. I was looking at my last update. It feels like it was 2 weeks ago considering the number of messages I went through... but it's been less than 2 days!! ;D
13 available boaters and 16 non-boaters who need rides. I have one boater who still might not be able to make it. Anyone else who hasn't already confirmed, I'm not going to count on for now.
If I get one more person to switch over to boater, I can triple up in my boat and we are all set then as long as no other changes or cancellations! (yeah, right ;D)
I haven't been over there yet, but I do hear the bass are biting. Based on Facebook stories, I think everyone should follow whomever Firefighter Jeff fishes with!!

Thanks for volunteering Dan. We should be as close as we can get right now.

You're coming from a ways away and we are at only 1 non-boater over now so don't worry about bringing your boat.
Much closer now. If everyone shows up, I will take a 2nd non-boater in my boat. It's big and I don't mind. We would be all set. Thanks.
One more change. Might need to add one more boater. I may have a volunteer already for that, but I'll confirm tomorrow.
As soon as the changes slow down to a crawl, I draw the rest of us and match people up.
Dan,
I won't be able to make it this weekend. Hopefully next time.

Dan, I posted over on the Michigan board at BBC that you needed boaters for this event...Maybe get some new members too...We will see.... ;)

Thanks for that. I have boaters dropping like flies the past few days...
Thanks to a couple non-boaters who have switched over to boaters we are at about 3 boats needing to triple up at the moment.
I still can't do a draw of the rest. About every 3 (or less) hours I'm getting another change. It needs to slow down a little before I will do a draw. Thanks for your patience.
French Fry Jeff! You need to bring your boat! We need boaters and you have a boat and you have to bring it now! It's really that simple! ;D ;D ;D
OK...PLEASE! :D
Dan, You can switch me from nonboater to boater. I guess it is time to bring the boat.

FF is planning on being in several other people's boats over days surrounding the event and I hate to ask him to haul his boat 4 hours just for this event when he has the plans for the other people anyway. There are closer people who are volunteering to help.
Like stackenem!! Thanks stackenem!!

It's supposed to be a nice, relaxing, calm, warm day with lots of bass biting all over the place. Or it should be anyway. Thanks stack! I really do appreciate it!
If for some reason I paired with FF jeff I hope he brings a big life jacket as all mine are for real short people LOLOLOLOL
Nice way to put it. I think? ::)
Whomever draws FF Jeff should really spank them!! I mean they just caught over 500 bass!!!! Maybe I should raffle him off as a partner. Raffle him and TCook?!? ;D

Hey Stack, thanks for the heads up. I had planned to bring a life jacket. :)
Cy I told Dan more than once that if he needed boats that I would drag it up. Thanks for the support Dan, but as before if you are in a pinch I will.
Oh and everyone seems to forget TCook was in the boat with me last week smacking smallies. You guys are putting too much pressure on me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAOOOOOOOO Relaxing and fun Pfffffttttttt lolololol
Besides, I won't go where Skip goes. So he is the odds on favorite. :) Hey wait, maybe I can convince my boater to go there !!!!! lololol
I'm following you, I was on St Clair last Saturday but I was in the canals with my 3 and 6 yr old boys so I have no idea what I am doing this year and I have to go to houghton lk this Friday to meet host people about the TBF state championship so no pre fishing for me, maybe I will draw someone who does know something :-\'
For anyone interested it does sound like houghton will be doing a pig roast for all the TBF championship participants.
FF, I said I'd raffle you AND Tim off to boaters who haven't been there yet :D
We are pretty close on boaters and non-boaters right now AND I haven't had a change in about 4 hours!! That's the longest of time of the past about 5 days. Maybe I can do a draw tomorrow morning? We'll see.
At least I'm not the only one who still calls him French Fry. LOL
Mike, you can call me, placing higher in the open than you !!! :D

LOL Yes Dan, I did notice but not til after I made my post. So Tcook is the favorite, since I'm not holding him back. lolol
Can I fish with skip? I am sick of the mile roads LOL
I thought Skip said he was going into the canals again largemouth fishing?
And I bet you're not really sick of the Mile Roads...

You are like those guys that are married to SuperModels and get sick of them.... ;D Too much of a good thing.. ::)
