Thanks, I was looking forward to this.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Dave, You will be missed, but have a great time with your grandson. Look forward to seeing you at the next one.
Now for everyone else, it is time to get a headcount. Here are the names I know, I'll add people as they rsvp here.
Me and my Bride Allen and his bride Mark Nicky and Jeff Bob Lusk (the Pondboss) Mike Otto (the other Pondboss) John B and Bride Chris S Tbar +1 Smokey +1 Laxbro MPC Good Brian (Cisco) Rex Charlie Pat Bcotton Anthropic Tracy ScottyD
Those who are not firm yet: Eric Sunil RC51 (Get your deer(s) early!!) TJ
So it looks to be our biggest turnout ever!! Please let me know any updates.
Once I have a good number, I'll be asking for some help on stuff for lunch. I'll get the BBQ and sides from the same place as before and we can go from there. Allen is in charge of the ice tea QC. Everything else is negotiable.
Next week, I'll PM everyone the address and the best way to find the gate. (its hidden in the trees)
The fish are bitting and the water is perfect.

We will be getting a motel the night before and I think if we could bring a desert it might travel the best.
We are good to go on the expected date but if it has to go to the alternate weather date we have other commitments.
Looking forward to it.
I would not mind having something like you do at our place some time for the people up in our neck of the woods (or anyone else that wanted to travel a ways). Getting to be quite a number of PBF members in the Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas area. Maybe next year.

Good chance that the hunting trip will be delayed until another weekend. Send me the address, etc also.

I'm a firm no, sadly - daughter has a performance Sunday it's a big deal. Sorry guys, I'm always the last to know about these things.

Here is what we know now:
TJ will be with his other family (good choice) and Rex will be bringing Cathy.
Any others on the fence?

It is now time to get ready. The list for things to bring is simple. We have two canoes, three kayaks and two little boats for fishing. I'll set up the fyke net if there is interest. The big seine will come out and get demonstrated, and T4 should be up and running.
Please bring a folding chair as we only have about 10 chairs at the place.
Food: We are going to get the BBQ from the same local place as the last time. Drinks, chips, small snacks and deserts are the other staples we will need. We have paper plates and plasticware for all.
It is time to get specific. Are there any special requests like Red Diamond Tea?
Fishing: It will be encouraged, please bring your favorite gear. There are size and shape limits. I am also hoping some one pulls out a new record LMB, hears hoping!

Brian,
A deployment that was scheduled for this weekend got pushed to next weekend so it looks like i will be unavailable due to work. Thanks for the invite, but you should scratch me off.
Thanks Brian
