Trying to arrange the trip. I noticed while poking around on Google Earth, there's a BPS on hwy 641 in Benton, KY. That looks like around 8 miles from Moor's. RIGHT on the way in.

I think I'll buy a ownership share of that store just before you (hopefully WE!!) get there.

That's strange, as it doesn't show on the BPS website. Let's hope for my budget's sake that it's only a BP gas station! ;D

Most likely an outlet store. There's a new place open now in Benton, Ky called Fisherman's headquarters. Doesn't look too far from moors, and I think they will have a better selection from what I've been told.

If I'm not mistaken the outlet store is actualy a gas station/bait shop.

And if you guys haven't gone, Marquitas is the place to go for breakfast. It's about halfway between the Moors and the Blood River.

GILETTE!!!!!!!!!!

GILETTE CALAVADE OF SPORTS

Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.  We have a winnah!

Has anybody heard from Bassinsergeant, or BassinSoldier? I don't know if they are deployed right now or not. I just want to make sure if they aren't deployed during the road trip we can get them a room. Let me know if anybody has any info, because I'm more then willing to cough up a deposit for them if need be. These guys are some great guys serving our country and they deserve a week filled with nothing but fishing! Plus I want all there KY lake spots! ;D

Haven't heard from either of them since a few weeks after the last road trip, but, unless I'm mistaken, they were both being deployed for another year's tour of duty in Iraq or that area of the world.

I think they were both involved in organizing the transport of materials to and from that area.

Haven't talked to bassinsoldier since the middle of Oct.  I texted him to see if he wanted to go fishing a few weeks ago, but never heard back from him.

More information about the trip can be found here:  http://kentuckylake.bassresource.com/

Glenn is a very busy man these days, so he forgot to mention that the new site has a form for you folks who will be attending. That sign-up form is vital to me, as I am the poor sap who will be trying to coordinate with those who have beds, those who need beds; and those who have boats with seats and those who need seats ... and, uh, those who need boats with beds ... or is it sheds with beets... I forget.

Awright then, I will be right on top of these matters. Uh-Huh. The doctor says I'm doing fine since I got out of the Nervous Hospital. Uh-Huh.

I forgot to mention, THERE IS NO SIGN-UP FEE. To date, there are no organized after-hours events, no freebies, and no T-Shirts. Deb and Greg may have an Ace or two or three up their sleeves, but they are not specific as yet.

Regardless, those of you who have signed up need to mail to me a signed copy of the form.

Thanks in advance, Uh-Huh.

[Lund Explorer]

The Checks In the Mail!

Oh wait, that's right..... No check needed.

Anyhow, the form is filled in, signed, and is going out today.  I had the spouse sign one too just in case you needed it as she will be in the boat!

When should I ask about bringing real Michigan hotdogs and ring bologna?

[steezy]

Just completed, signed, scanned and emailed the form to you mike.

[MNGeorge]

Form is filled out...be in tomorrow's mail.

[Long Mike]

To Lund Explorer, and anyone else, (with the exception of Speedbead's famous chicken recipe,) if you are interested in hosting a meal for as many as fifty people please let me know. It is a given that you will be reimbursed for your expenses because we will be shaking people down at the door. If anyone is interested in putting something like that together then I will sic our Official Bloodhounds (Greg and Deb) to find such a suitable location.

[lynyrdsky1]

Don't hold me to this, but if I do come that first weekend I will do a fish fry for whos there at that time. The only reason I'm saying don't hold me to it is that work may make where I can't go. If everything works the way it should go, at the time I should have a freezer full of crappie and will love to cook for you guys.

Eat me raw. 

;D

[Long Mike]

Face it Wayne, we who were there will never let you live that one down. 

[SPEEDBEAD.]

Hey, the cooked pieces were delicious.

What can I say?   ;D

[Glenn]

Mine was fine after I grilled in the fireplace a little longer.  Actually, it was REALLY good!

But still, the damage was done. Your fate was sealed Wayne.  Wear it with pride! 

Oh...and your comment to Mike a couple of posts up?  I was wiping the tears out of my eyes I was laughing so hard!  ;D

[SPEEDBEAD.]

I was hoping someone would find the humor in that statement.

LOL

Hey I saw Big O down two of those chickens even after the legendary "Don't eat the Chicken" moment. He didn't nuke it or anything. It' was like he was feeding up for the spawn with the bass. ;D Now that I think of it maybe that's where he got the ragetail patented actionc from, a chicken or maybe a smoking rooster flapping it's wings. I figure it made him hungry so why not the bass.

Thanks Mike!

I was thinking if maybe there was something I could whip up to feed the crew one evening. 

Of course seeing as how so few people seemed to like Speedbead's "It's Still Kickin' Chicken", I might be better off leaving my roadkill cookbook at home!   ;D

[CWB]

I had 2 myself and didn't spend any extra time in the bathroom the following day. Didn't have to beach the boat either. Delicious.

[Alpster]

Hey Wayne,

You can build bridges all your life and no one will ever call you a "bridge builder". Under-cook just one chicken dinner and you are branded for life.  ;D

[Siebert Outdoors]

Hmm...Sounds delicious... :

BTW...We will be arriving Saturday. So, for those coming down early...

Saturday night rocks!

Well RW, If you are going Saturday. I think I can swing this one. I'll probably have to camp though.  I can be there that weekend as of right now.
