Uncle Leo Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Guys the trip last year was worth it just for RW. One night at dinner he's falling over chairs and the next he's screaming "Don't eat the chicken". At least the wine box didn't break! ;D I had 2 pieces of Wayne's fantastic steroid injected (Huge) chicken and lived to tell about it and fish the next day without any emergency trips to shore. Now the pancakes at the marina- that's another story. Uncle Leo can attest to that. Yep I did not need to trim my nose hairs for a month. Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted December 15, 2009 Super User Posted December 15, 2009 OK, that's it. I've taken all of the abuse from you guys that I'm going to take. You will never again see me walking around with a box of Franzia, but you may see me walking around with a gallon milk jug. I really enjoy my milk. Quote

From what I can remember liquor was more scarce then gold in that dry county. I'm surprised you didn't get robbed by Rod point. Quote
lazeebum Posted December 16, 2009 Posted December 16, 2009 I guess I will get to meet some of you folks if I ain't busy with the band. That is in my neck of the woods. I will probably have to buy a temp license for Tennnessee, and might even camp close by. Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted December 16, 2009 Super User Posted December 16, 2009 Oh, don't I wish it was May. I cannot wait!!!! Quote
lazeebum Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 My personal suggestion as far as license is to buy a Tennessee license, you can fish a long way up Pickwick with it, and if you like to fish tailraces you can fish below the dam. Plus where the roadtrip is this year you can fish 2 different lakes on one trip. Of course Road Warrior already knows this. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted December 17, 2009 Super User Posted December 17, 2009 The Lodge is immediately across from the Pickwick Dam. Everyone attending the BassResource.com Roadtrip needs a Tennessee license. Quote
BassinSoldier Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 In my defense, from something I was reading a couple of pages back, that chair was broken! Quote

BassinSoldier Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 Who thought that was you!? You're just a lil' guy! HAHAHA ;D Quote

One night at dinner he's falling over chairs and the next he's screaming "Don't eat the chicken". All the while Big-O downs several pieces of possibly under cooked chicken and had a look in his eye that made me think he was Rabid. Then there was Procrafter my roomate who's 2 fish always turned into 10 and a 12incher turned into a 18 incher. ;D All and all it was of the best times of my life. I look forward to this one. BTW if anybody is wanting to get a cabin and need another roomate let me know. And Simp is one of my roomies next year! Quote
BassinSoldier Posted December 19, 2009 Posted December 19, 2009 Falling over chairs, yeah, I think I witnessed that too. I was referring to falling over IN your chair! (which mine obviously had a defect) Quote

Super User CWB Posted December 19, 2009 Super User Posted December 19, 2009 Falling over chairs, yeah, I think I witnessed that too. I was referring to falling over IN your chair! (which mine obviously had a defect) I think those chairs outside were all messed up. Lean back too far and over you go! I almost went over myself. You forgot to mention the most important part. Not a drop of beer was spilled. (No he wasn't hammered, it was his first of the night before dinner. Equipment malfunction) I do think someone out there has a picture of this for blackmail purposes though. Just kidding. Quote
BassinSoldier Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 I will admit it wasn't my FIRST of the night, but I was far from hammered, haha! I think Burley had a picture of it...I know he posted a while back and that pic was in there. Quote
Simp Posted December 25, 2009 Posted December 25, 2009 Personally I'm really looking forward to it being my second trip and all. My first trip I found it awkward at times not knowing screen names with faces but that wore off. I met some of the nicest, funniest, and luckiest (how many times did CJ win a reel?) people I have ever met. I only wish that storm with cold weather hadn't hit us those first couple days. Being further to the south and a couple weeks later I'm hoping we hit a killer spawn/ post spawn bite. I'm determined to catch some smallies as well. Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted December 25, 2009 Super User Posted December 25, 2009 Simp, It's a double edged sword. First you learn to associate the screen names with the real names, then you call them by their real names for the balance of the trip, then you get back home and forget what their screen names were. Been there, done that. :-[ Quote

Triton21 Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Don't worry Mike you got a few to go to catch up with me. Was 66 in Oct. Respect your ELDERS Mike. Kelley Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 Glenn, I'm trying to make this one but I do have a question. Do I have to pay the 50$ if I'm only there for the opening weekend? I cant do the whole week. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted December 29, 2009 Super User Posted December 29, 2009 GMAN, The Roadtrip starts with sign-up, greetings and probably a little wine & cheese Sunday afternoon/ evening (May 2) and concludes Thursday night. Check-out is Friday morning, May 7. There is no "scheduled" weekend fishing. The registration fee covers a badge, goodie bag, t-shirts and the banquet Wednesday night. This fee will barely cover costs or may not! However, if you fish the weekend, May 1 & 2, you are welcome to the afternoon gathering at no cost. -Kent p.s. Last year's wine and cheese party was sponsored by just a few of us, not reimbursed by BassResource. Everyone is encouraged to contribute a bottle of wine, but that is NOT obligatory. Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted December 29, 2009 Posted December 29, 2009 Crap. Thanks RW. Some reason I thought M2 was a Saturday. Quote
