2007-2008 Montana Ice Shanty Get Together
« on: Dec 18, 2007, 03:13 PM »
Ok.. The ideas have been compiled and the public polled. Here are the details for the 2007-2008 Ice Shanty Get Together.

Date: January 5-6
When: Meet at 11:00 AM (that way everyone can get  in on the morning bite first if they want to)
Where: Canyon Ferry Lake:Silos Recreation Area  Everyone bring their hunters orange. We will wear that at first so we can tell who is there from the shanty. 

JigMaster5000 will bring his fire ring so we will set up Ice Shanty HQ.  He would appreciate it if everyone could bring some firewood since there is not much there to gather.  Food and drinks will be on your own. 

I was thinking that we could do a fishing pool where everyone pitches in $5 and the person with the biggest fish of the weekend wins the cash.

Please post if you plan to make it.  Any other ideas are welcome.  If you have questions, let us know.

NOPE.

I think it was yer pops, he said they are anti gun.

I said, but they've got the silver bullet ???

I drank mine with a BIG smile on my face!!

It all tastes the same on the ice. :tipup:

My dad is full of it. Coors is the primary financial sponsor for the non-profit American Enterprise Institute which is very adamant about its anti-gun control position.  So, I say drink more coors.   ;D

I must have missed the conversation that moved this thing up date wise...  I read the entire other thread and the last dates thrown out were the last weekend in January during the tourney...what happened to that..

I think you may not even have ice the first weekend in January the way things have been going!

I can go the last weekend in January but not the first....too far to drive for the "chance" that there will be ice....

Count me in, and I will bring some BEER and some firewood (in that order, First things first).  And Jiggy said he'd bring the hookers, i mean hooks.

Hey RR, good to see your back. I was wondering where you went.

Would you guys mind if a newbee showed up?  I've been known to stand on the ice a throw back a few beers and I don't leave home without the wiskey :thumbsup:.  I also have some fire wood I could bring.

No problem. You are definitely welcome.  Also, any lurkers out there, this is your time to get involved.  I think the more people we have the more fun we will have.

I've been laid up for a couple months with a broken heel, but it's getting better, just a slow proposition.  Guided fly fishing all summer, so I didn't have ANY time to be on line.  But with winter here, and the hard water of course, HERE I am.

Then I guess it would be more like "10 feet from Jiggy"  as long as we both have BEER IN HAND who cares?

Iceandwhiskey....If you showed up that would be great...the more the merrier=more fun.  Show up, and I'll guarantee you have fun with Jiggmaster5000 and Walltrout.

Fishing gear - bait (live minnows are not allowed but maggots for perch and trout and cut bait for ling), up to 6 tipups
  There is a bait and tackle shop at the marina that should be able to supply anything you might forget.
flashlight
food
drinks
some firewood if you have it
hunters orange if you have it (we will wear it until we get grouped together)
some sort of sleeping arrangement. (I plan on sleeping in my truck but Townsend is not too far away. The Mustang Motel (266-3491) is in Townsend.  Or there are plenty of places to park campers or trailers if you have one.


That should be about it.

RR, I think by the guy's screen name, he will have the alcoholic beverage part covered.   :laugh:
