Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

Dan;
Jason and I will be there.
One boater and one non boater
Original song and lyrics by "MadWags"

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.

I plan to be a boater and I plan to bring a non-boater with me.

Question .... is there and age limit?

1. Make sure they are a member of this forum. One rule to be fair.

2. No age limit as long as I have the parent there since that is who I think younger than 16 should only fish with. I need written or verbal consent for 16 - 17 years old.

I'll take everyone who has said they'll be there the week before and do a boater/nonboater draw matchup. I'll let everyone know who they are fishing with so contacts can be made. You'll fish as a team for your best 5.

Dan,
I'm planning on making this event this spring. Would like to go as a nonboater, but in a pinch I could haul the old Bass Cat over.

Ok - I'll start putting a list together soon to see where we are at right now and let you know.

I changed her password, remember?  She shouldnt have let me think it up for her.  The only thing I have to worry about now is Joshimoto.  If she leans on him too hard for the Tri-Tips fiasco I could be in trouble.  You'll have to see him for further info on that.  In fact... I dont want her spending 8 hours with him.  Will have to exclude him from the draw.

If you have her induce now you can spend plenty of quality time with the youngster between now and then.  She'll think you are the greatest dad in the world and reward you with a kitchen pass.

Dan, I am in as a boater if I have my boat back by then... The big yellow freighter is having some warranty work done on her but I am hoping she will be back by then.  If not I will go as a non-boater for sure.

djkimmel

Ok - waiting until after the GR show to start putting things together to see where we're at.
