I''ll try to make it again this year. The Cove is always a good time, and the shot at a pike makes it that much better!

Funny, I was thinking about you when this Fall when I was at a Pumpkin Festival at the park in TF and I got to thinking " I wound what ole bigbry is up to".  I would be great to get a fish on with you again at the cove!

it will be good to meet you Ethan11271

Sorry, haven't been there in over ten days.  My friend said he saw two Russians out there Thur. and no one else.  For what ever that is worth.   BaitBucket was going to try to check today. Don't know if he did?

Wooot!  Not sure if we have had a Shanty flag at The Gathering before.  I think I remember one at Bear Hill but not at The Cove. 

Again, I look forward to meeting you.  It is going to be a long ride for you from the cape.  You should grab a room and make a weekend of it.

Sure, the next town over is Greenfield and they have a couple chain type motels and a couple of smaller
places.  If you are serious about it PM me and I will get you some specifics.  It is super bowl Sunday the next day if that plays in to your plans.  I could probably fish with you that Sun. or at least send you some place local to get on the fish or, you could fish your way home.  Hit a spot for an hour or two then travel toward home for an hour to another pond and set out three tips and jig for and hour etc.  .

all you gotta do is fish with BIGBRY! He fishes to the left of the ramp, 70 feet - then turns right, 12 feet... and fishes between the big red oak, and the burch trees. its a nice gig... he sets up his tree stand to see whats going on on the ice part....  :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao:

Great to hear from you and hope to see you here!  I do snow removal so if we  find ourselves in that situation it will have to go to the alternative date.  We'll worry about that only if the weather gods start playing with us.

 Flagg's,

 that's because i figure you have fished every other inch of the cove, with us, and by yourself in 120mph winds, blinding snow, and subzeoro temps. and still haven't found your "Moby Dick"  so i figure he's at the bottom of the Loch Ness II
