See first page first post for all the 411.  I'll add you to the list and look forward to meeting you.  Some quality fish come out of here but the flags can be a little slow so the feasting and drinking is key.

Gentlepeople!

The 7th is the day of the A1 Bass MAsters Tourney on Chauncy. I have yet to miss this one and plan on fishing the tourny this year too!  Certainly takes presidence over my nemesis!  I am sure there will be others Cap!

Flaggs!

There are only so many weekends in the season.  I'd say something about tournaments but I learned my lesson on that  ;D  Your absence will be felt.

Would you guys think I was a dink if I said I'd show up, then didn't?

Because that might just happen.

I'll bring a bunch of something to share if I do show up, though!

Sounds like its time for a road trip.  I've been wanting to try for some pike and my tip downs might be ready by then!

GrizlyGarou and I will form a Westford contigent.

I'll figure out what I can bring.

No problemo with the 30.  I mean seriously, it is my gathering, believe me adult beverages are allowed!  Unoman usually brings a big vat of his tasty chowder so you may want to think of some thing else.

Only so many weekends in a season John.  The pan fish just breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Getting psyched !  Looking forward to seeing every one, new faces and old.

Capt.,

Doesn't look like I'll be able to make it. The Mrs. is having some problems with the pregnancy and I can't stray too far from home.

Have fun guys!! Keep an eye out for bait left on the ice. It's what works the best!

Well, I said I would try, so here it goes!

I spoke to the wife last night, after some sweet talk and she said I could go. As of now it's a yes. Capt. let me know what I can bring.

Hopefully I will see you guys soon on the COVE!         I wanna catch some Eyes!

Drumsticks sound great.  I would par-boil them so you don't have to worry about cooking them through.  Salmon might be tough with out a lot of prep and doing a foil bomb but that is up to you.

Already looking forward to next Sat.

Capt. I hope we get some fish at Bartons after last weekend, I had to go trout fishing just to see if my traps still worked. I have a hot plate for my two burner, so if you want to cook the Salmon on that I don't mind.

I hope to get some fish, so if there are any bait on the ice they are mine this time.

Well guys I wish you luck next weekend! We had 30 tips up today at Bartons and got 2 small fish from 6:30-3:00. Slush, slush, slush and more "deep" slush! I hope you guys have a great time with lots of fish, won't be back there for a while!
