at my house, Saturday Feb 9th. there will be a pot of chile, pop, beer, chips and whatever you bring if you want to bring anything you don't have to if you don't want to. i've gone thru my tackle stuff and i got a pretty good bag of lures to sell or trade, also a used bow mount 12/24 motorguide Brute 50lb thrust. Last year we had a great turnout of 10-12 people all having a great time some of even bought and sold stuff, some just had a great time talking about fishing, and telling fishing stories. so come on over and have a good time

I have a bunch of Allstar T-Series rods (the US made ones before they sold out) that are like new and tackle I will bring. 24V Motor GuideTrolling motor that came off an aluminum v-bottom rig. A bunch of spinnerbaits and plastics.

I'm in.  Ok if people bring additional food and beer?

djkimmel

I'll keep an eye on this. I definitely have more fishing tackle - mostly lures - laying around than I will ever be able to use up.

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.

Mojo

Dashing through the snow
  In a 390-horse MOPAR sleigh
      O'er the roads we go
            Laughing all the way

Bells Oberon to Bobs I bring
  Making spirits bright
      What fun it is to trade my gear
              And drink with my fish addict fools tonight!

  (chorus)
Jingle bells, Gulp! Goby smells,
      No crank bait deal gets missed today ...
             Oh! what fun it is to get
                      A cool rod for the one I dont use anywayyyyy.
 
Jingle bells, anything drop shot sells,
   Bring my non Kustom Kicker spinnerbaits all the way;
          Oh! what fun it is to lie
                about lures that dont catch fish anywayyyyyyy.

(Thank you - Thank you - your far too kind - Ill be here all week)
