Here is the updated draw matching all the nonboaters possible to boaters. We are still all fishing as a team with the best 5 bass caught by everyone in the boat. Please contact me (http://glbass.com/contact) with any questions about this list. I think we are now about where we will be Saturday morning as long as everyone shows up.
Nonboaters bring a life jacket that fits you. Anyone who has an extra Golden Rule Weighmaster board, please bring that also.
Please notify me ASAP about any changes in your status. Otherwise, I look forward to seeing all of you Saturday morning May 9 no later than 7:15AM at Harley Ensign BAS. I will be there no matter what because the weather people are usually wrong. I will work out the draw so everyone gets to fish once we get there and I know who is all available and there so don't worry about that.
Boaters, if you are willing to take a 3rd/extra adult, please let me know in case there are anymore last minute changes, or the additional boaters are unable to make it. If any non-boaters can't make it, I may still move people around a little so we have as few triples as possible. This event is about meet-and-greet, and everyone catching some fish! Thanks!
If I got something wrong, don't panic. Please post on here or just contact me (http://glbass.com/contact) and I will get it straightened out asap. Thanks.
Nice,
Dan I can take a 3rd in the boat
Waterfoul can't make it. Flipnjig is already riding over with me. You can put him in my boat. My son just said he may also want to go. If he decides to, I will register him on the site.
From our conversations Saturday Hollada may not be there. I will let him respond.
I hope the weather forecast changes between now and Saturday. Calling for thunderstorms the day of MadWags.
I just saw that too. What I saw said the storms were developing in the afternoon. I hope they don't. I'm looking forward to another day out there. Yesterday was too much fun.
Dan,
I won't be able to make the event this year.
Have a great time!
I can also take a third in my boat.

Be aware DNR Fishing nets in LSC.
How much money should a non-boater kick in for gas? This is my first tournament. Thanks. :)
I still plan on being there, unless Thursday and Friday both predict thunderstorms. I'm not willing to drive 3 hours to wait it out and hope for a chance to fish. Let's all hope that it clears up!

20.00 would be a good offering. You could IM you partner and see if he would like you to bring anything. Make sure you bring a rain suit. Even if it doesn't rain it can be cool out there this time of year.
If you need tackle or anything ask any of us at the ramp. We can help you out.

status change...not a boater, fishing with my friend Neil Heisler in his boat, sorry
80% of T storms yesterday ( Monday, all day ) and we had a beautiful evening for softball...so much for the weather forecast. at this time capt Charlie is not fishing his boat, I've invited a long time friend and will be fishing with him.
figure what its going to take you to get there, how many gallons then figure what it'll cost the boater towing a boat and running on lake st clair with most boat averaging 2.6 miles to the gallon. if your going to offer him $20, ya better bring the snacks and the drinks...contact him and find out.

Dan,

Have a great time!
Sorry to hear that. I had plenty of room for you with someone and based on the weather forecast I expect to be making last minute changes Saturday morning though we'll go fishing or have a party or both regardless!

Thanks for that t-bone.
I'm going to be there as long as VinceR gets there no matter what. The weather people have never been on the money for these things so I hope most of you feel the same. I'd like to minimize the need for last minutes changes Saturday morning but I'll make them and everyone will get out somehow as they always have.
I won't say go in an actual thunderstorm but we may be done and gone before any storms hit from the forecast even if they are right. Worse comes to worse there are places to fish out of the weather almost always on this big, beautiful lake so we'll work it out.
Plus, we'll have food and each other for company! I can't wait to get on the big lake again. The fishing reports have been nothing short of astounding so far this year and I've already seen bunches of pictures of giant LSC toads! Keep me updated and make sure you keep helping me with the food organizing. That's a big help! Thanks and SEE YOU THERE!
My son is going to go with me. I will have to sign him up as a member of the site.

How old is he? You don't have to sign him up especially if he is 13 or younger. Thanks!
A few more changes to the non-boaters list and we are down to just one person (me) needing a boater. Since we have 4 people who say they can take 2 non-boaters I'm not worried about that as long as everyone shows up. Keep your fingers crossed that the weather people are wrong or they change their forecast to a good one for Saturday.
He's 15. I signed him up as Bryce.
I will be fishing with MitchS.

Thank you Donna S. Glad to have you join the website and our Memorial fishing day!
No pairings changes, just some name updates this morning. Thanks!
FOOD AND DRINK UPDATE: Need side dishes, hamburgers and hamburger buns, fruit and coffee.
(For those new, and a reminder to the veterans, our BEFORE and AFTER PARTY is always a blast ! To prevent 20 folks from bringing cookies and beer, we have a list of needs on the OFFICIAL PARTY link.) Please add your name and what you can contribute if you wish. Always, always appreciated ;D
I like how you keep telling people to post on the official party link, then fail to provide it...

Oh wait my phone is calling someone .... "Hello? It ain't rocket science ellipsis"
Looks like plans changed and I can make it after all. I'll be a boater but I will be bringing my friend from Germany who is in town. He should probably be a shoe in for greatest distance traveled.
Updated the lists again. Lost a boater. Working on another boater in unsure status right now.
Looks like I cant make it, I cant get the day off sat.
Tim has to work saturday, so I'm bowing out. Can't make the 4 hour drive each way, hotel and gas alone. Enjoy the day!
i can take a 3rd probably
Guys, sorry about this but I'm going to have to back out, though it looks like you have non-boaters that need rides anyway. The wife has to work during the day so I have to take my daughter to her horse show. I'm really sad to miss this one. :(
Thanks for all the updates. I have things updated (in a couple minutes anyways). I do have a couple nonboaters thinking about fishing and possibly 1 more boater unconfirmed yet.
I told him I could probably get him in as long as he doesn't mind being a 3rd wheel in a boat. I'm worried about everyone showing up for Saturday. I told him I would probably not know exact arrangements until Saturday morning but I didn't mean to discourage him. I'm trying to get one more boater to come and join us if I can.
Hey I been looking but too lazy to keep looking anymore.. lol.. Can someone tell me what time we need to be there? I cant remember what time we arrived last year. 7am?? Not sure
Yes, be there by 7AM
I talked to G boat Bob
Were driving over together. Will be there around 7:15 rain or shine
Okay. I need all the boaters I can get. Lost 1 more due to unexpected circumstances. Updating the draw in a couple minutes.

Unknown ? what kind of a person backs out of an outing < 14 hours before ?
On an even unhappier note, all non boaters better have a good rain suit. It's a long day otherwise.....
Sometimes family things do come up.
We had great weather so rain suits were happily unnecessary overall. Thank you Mother Nature.
