Just wanted to say that I had a really fun time tonight meeting with all of you guys!!!! It was great to put some faces to the names on the board. I hope to hook up with all of you at some time or another and fish some more. I think if we all did more of this that the ***** level on the board would go way down. Next week the evening tides are a lot more cooperative. I probably be back next Thursday depending on my Daughters tournament schedule. The only disapointing thing is that Dcrzfitter still wouldn't give up the egg cure secret even after we threatened to hang him by his toes off of the Mounts Rd bridge (sort o' like North Dallas Forty hehehe). Hey Darkwon/Buzzbomb, we had a snaggin' contest. Only problem there is that crazy Big Jim kept breakin off the 50 lb braided line LOL !!!! Hey RT, next time leave a little o' that fine emu meat for the rest of us ok.
Good luck and tight lines to all!!! Jeff
PS,
Hey Os, no excuses next time!!!!!!

Ditto Jeff. Fun. Nice of Big Jim to clear several large trees out of the way so we could play catch with darkbuzzwon, but the young gentlemen didn't show . BTW, you guys went about it the wrong way hangin' dc off the bridge. He's a tough dude! I took him aside and simply told him to give up the secret or he'd find himself on a "date" with a lonely Emu, the one that dumped Os. I didn't have anything to write it on but I think it's pretty easy to remember. Just get sommme.... ah..... hold on a sec. . . . . . . . . . . DANG IT.

Great to meet all that showed up. The water was great, fishiong was great, it was the catching that left some desire, except for the 50 lb liner's, they had nooooo problems after all the stuff Big Jim cleared out.
Glad all those that came down did, hope to spread this around and try other familar spots for a gathering. Maybe a overnighter down south in RT neck of the wood's?

Woody, and all, watch the www.ifish.net bulletin board. I think Jen may plan a big Fish N Fry overnight shindig, maybe around late Sept., based on fishing the big T-Bay 'Nooks. - RT

MAN! I'm tired today. I need to get more super line now. That 50lb was not enough. I think I will get some of the 500lb trotline stuff. And I will bring my drysuit next time. Just spear the dang things. Faster and easier. Anyone want to buy some rusty 14/0 trebles and lots of waterlogged wood? I think I can cut a good deal on it. I think a trip to OR will be more of drinking fest then fish fry. But sounds like a plan.

Just because I look big, dumb, and ugly, doesn't mean I am. It means I can stomp you for calling me it!

Well Well my litle Nasty boys,sounds like it was a good time for all involved,I'm sure Rt was all the entertainment you guys needed, I hope he didn't try to do that table dance thing ( myself being pure of thought and heart , would have no idea what that was) sorry I missed it,I will be there thursday evening for all that want to show up for round 2#

Osprey, count me in for round #2. Oh, by the way, Sunday morning about 0630 landed a 14 pound buck bottom bouncing my homemade eggs. Sorry fellas, I spent more time looking at the pictures taken at Pikes Market and listening to the fish tails that I forgot to give anyone interested my recipe for eggs. Prior to boiling the water I substitute dark brown sugar for white, less non-iodized salt and one half cup of lemon concentrate. I want them to get used to the lemon flavor so they know what's in store when they hit the grill! Got a wild hair several years ago and put this recipe together and surprisingly it works! Will be back at the river after work on Wednesday (after the nets come out at noon). Hope to see some of you in the area. Tight (new) lines to all...Tom

Hi Os,
Nice to see ya back in town!!! How was the campin'??? Get any fishin' in or did Momma chase ya around the camp fire for the whole trip !?!? I'm gonna try and make it Thursday night, depends on my Daughters ball schedule this week.
Good luck and tight lines, Jeff

I will beback this thursday. My computer is on the blitz so I figured out my bro's lil note book and am just getting back on the net. I already planned on fishing from my boat. I think I will put in at the handy cap hole. so I will probably float by ya'll and maybe stop in and say howdy but I wanna get down and fish some of that tide water where I know the fish are see ya around and good luck. I've been hung for my secrets before and they didn't get them. so you guys will need to think of something els. Man my ankles are hurting from that 50# that Big Jim hand me hanging from. maybe next time you should try some ugly gal with lots of lip stick threatening to kiss me. that might make me talk. but then I think someone tried that to. ohh well see ya later

Rt

yer car was nice. It was nice seeing you and maybe someday I can make it down to yer erea and do a little springer fishing with ya.

Osprey,
