Fun event and if the weather is good this year I hope to do better than last year. Lets get some FMers up there and help raise some coin for the Boy Scouts.

Cant find a cheaper and more fun contest that pays out as well as this one people. Hope to see a bunch of ya there.

[Wade Joseph]

I think I am gonna give it a try even though I have only fished the lake once with Loonasea.

[ripstick]

hey wade it can be a good lake to play in. Sometimes the people with not much time on it get lucky at the contest

But anyway there are good door prizes to be had and a fun time.

[LoonASea]

I'll figure out a way to fish this event,, some how this year ,,,Gary does FC have the side bet going for this year also??

Randoid

[ripstick]

Yes there will be one on the side. I will let you know when it starts.

Ya just look at Loonasea and I last year. Total luck. Oh and a little help from a friend who just happens to be my partner this year.

Hope to see ya Wade and maybe Loonasea will fish with ya. He knows all the secrets of last year. If there was any. Some say we did everything wrong. If what we did was wrong I dont want to be right this year.

Ya know Ill be in on the SB.

[Wade Joseph]

[SKIPPERS KID]

[Northlander]

Ill believe that when I see you on the water.

[SKIPPERS KID]

[Northlander]

The more the marrier Tom. Ya leave the carp at home they dont weigh in this contest.

[Wade Joseph]

[SKIPPERS KID]

Well I will bring my Bow just in case I see a carp .

[ripstick]

Hey tom get your ticket yet the side bet is still open.

[______CARP________]

Hey Tom got a partner? I am going to try and get that sat off so i can fish it and help out the scouts at the same time hope to see you there.

Gary

[ripstick]

Well it is my understanding that carp and skippers kid are fishing good to see 2 more from the forum. good luck and see you on the water.

[Northlander]

Come on guys lets get a few more teams in this bad boy. Its a relaxed and fun event thats for a good cause and you can win some great cash and prizes.

Steve W. are you in?

Looks like we will have good weather too. I dont know if I can fish Island Lake without 25 mph winds and rain and lightning.

[LoonASea]

I'm in for this event, I just have to make a trip to FC for the SB

See every one on the water

Good luck out there!!!!!!!!

Randoid

[Surface Tension]

I'll just repeat that the proceeds goes to Scouting.

I may be able to get to this one. Took a lightning strike last Sunday and it took out a lot of my stuff. Trolling motor is in the shop right now. SB@FC you say. I'd love to take your money.

[Northlander]

Frank you and Loonasea should fish out of his boat if he dont have a partner yet. He knows the trolling scoop now and you know some live bait spots so get your B U T T @ FC & $ for the Ticky and SB and your SETTY.

Hope to see ya there. The more FMers the marrier.

[Wade Joseph]

Ok, its official! I am IN it to WIN it. But I'll just be happy to boat a few fish, I figure I'll follow that 18' lund with the 115 yammie around. If that don;t work, I got a few tips given to me by an freinds father who grew up on the lake.

Wade who has a 18' Lund with a 115 Yamaha on it? Mines only 17'.

Besides with the new prop I have you will be eating rooster tails all day and probably lose me in the 1st Quarter mile.

Hope you got whipers on your boat or at least your sunglasses.

What about Loonasea and Surface Tension? You guys putting your $ where your mouth is or what? You guys got partners yet? If not you two should join forces and you would surely do good.

[Wade Joseph]

Ok, the 17'er then. You might be faster with the new prop, but I can hold my own.

[Surface Tension]

Randy would make a good partner but I have one already.

Got a soccer practice Sunday afternoon so I might not be at the AWARDS. We meeting up for lunch?

[Northlander]

Well I hope the weather is cooler and the fishing hotter than it was today. I sweated through over 8 hours of fishing and at least now I know where they arent, or at least werent today.

See everyone early tomorrow and hopefully we can figure those buggers out.
