Dear Friends,

I really enjoyed getting together with you guys last year after the Fishing Show, and think that we should plan on doing it again.

YpsiBass

It's good to get this conversation going now so we can get a little bit better turnout in 2013. Before or after the Novi show would be good I think.

bigjc

I agree buddy.  If we start thinking about it now, maybe we can even get UAW B/D there this year  ;D

Do kids play soccer in January?

Has anyone given this idea any more thought?  I am probably going to the show on Saturday and would love to meet up with some of you guys for a bite to eat before the show.

Waterfoul

Me an my crew probably won't be there till around noon or so... 2+ hour drive so we don't normally stick around afterwards either.
Addicted to fishing.  All the time, any species, anywhere!!  Especially in West Michigan!!!

bigjc

Bummer, cause it is a nice opportunity to get to meet face to face.  Especially with you West-siders!

bsimpson

I am up for getting together after the show on Saturday. 

YpsiBass

Working the GLB booth friday and saturday nights so I'm no good between 4p-8p either day.  Anytime before or after that is great though.

bigjc

Well, I know that I brought this up, but it looks like the only day I will likely have available to go is Sunday.  I was hoping to go Thursday and Saturday, but I don't think that my schedule is going to allow it.

YpsiBass

Just realized we didn't get together.  I'm a little out of it this winter.  You guys want to do a makeup date in February?   I know the swap meet is in February, but that's no reason not to get together anyway.

bigjc

I am bummed that we were not able to get together also.  I had a work issue that weekend, that made it impossible for me to get out to the show.  Oh well, guess I saved a few bucks.

I would not be opposed to trying to get together in Feb.

Revtro

I'm up for February.  I'm sorry we couldn't pull something off in January.  It's been pretty busy around here.  Let's make it happen.  Here's a crazy idea...how about Valentine's Day?  We can all take our significant others out with us or a nice dinner.  But we don't have to make it "romantic".  That way guys without wives won't feel uncomfortable coming along.  Is that a weird idea?  Or maybe we can shoot for Saturday, the 16th.  I'm free that night.  How about we do something fun?  I went to Bath City Bistro in Mt. Clemens a week ago and did feather bowling.  That was a lot of fun.  Of if someone has an idea more suited to the west siders, bring it on.

Could go out friday the 15th since that's my birthday...

bigjc

My wife and I have plans at our church on Valentines day, but we might be available Friday night.

djkimmel

You need a 'pick a date and place' committee that just announces a date and time, and then people that can make it, make it. For a number of years now, that seems to be the best way over all to try to make things happen with everyone being so busy.

I would love to make more things myself. I am glad to see various members and frequent visitors of this website get together for all the various activities. That's important to me even if I don't make a lot of the events myself. My goal is to add 1 or 2 more to my own schedule each year too. I keep a watch on what you all come up with in case I can add this one in too. I always enjoy seeing and talking to the people I have met on this website! Thanks!

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

I was really bummed that I couldnt make it to the get together / grill out last year.  I know thats not what this discussion is about but this is my senior year in high school and I just may be able to use that as a good enough excuse to get with you all.  And on a side note I am 100% positive my grandpa would love to do this as well.  Would you all be interested in doing that again?

Actually now that you mention the cookout part, maybe we should do something opening weekend of C&R?  Far enough in the future we can plan a bit and get schedules cleared up.  Checked the DNR's website and that's last Saturday in April.  What do you guys think?

Revtro

I'm with ya.  Great idea.  If we don't set a solid date, it's never gonna happen, so this sounds really good to me.  Opening weekend would be great.  Last Saturday in April...where to launch?  I normally launch at 11 Mile that time of year.  I could see if I can get more boats in that day since I'm a resident.  But I'm not sure where we can hang out after if we launch there.  We could do Harley or even Metro Beach if we want to hang at the park after and maybe BBQ.  Thoughts?
