4th Annual Pre-Season Gathering (Pics Added)
« on: Aug 04, 2014, 01:16 PM »
What a turn out!! We had atleast 12 people at my last count. Everyone had a great time with food and drinks around. Many fish stories and great pics of recent catches.

Now all we need is the ice!!  Thanks to all who made it out. And to those who didnt (Ed, Keith!), theres always next year =)
















And here is Jimmy (Stealth) giving us his "im a ghost" impression. I think Jeffs facial expression says it all.  lol

Cigars and fishing go together like peanut butter and jelly.Too bad that the 2 events couldn't be combined. ;D
Being on ice is nice but the tug is the drug.

Haven't made it to a gathering yet but hoping to get out to Gardner this year, trying to talk a friend into taking the ride there with me.  I will hopefully have a definite answer this week.  Need to branch out and start putting some faces with the posts I've been following on here for the last couple years.
It's like tailgating with the possibility of catching a fish!

😡😡😡 So my better half  :roflmao: :roflmao: decided to do family pictures on the 8th @ 4 so I might be able to get out there for a little while.  She didn't find the idea of superimposing me in the picture very funny. I did 😁😁
