Super User Fishing Rhino Posted June 7, 2011 Super User Posted June 7, 2011 OK guys, what happened to all the rah, rah, sis, boom, bah about a bunch of us getting together? Two showed up for the first roundup in April. Is that the end of it? Quote
GrundleLove Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Sorry dude. It has been SOOOOOO busy for me. Seriously. Graduations, weddings, all that summer b/s. I am ready to start hittin the water. Set the date and local and i will be there. Quote
ukbumpkin Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Depending on the date, I would like to join you guys. I do have a crazy summer schedule though. Quote
Super User Fishing Rhino Posted June 7, 2011 Author Super User Posted June 7, 2011 I can make it pretty much anytime. The only exceptions are the weekend around June 18th, and the week following the Fourth of July. Grampa and I talked about it when we fished together last week. We wondered if everyone else lost interest or what. As far as the time, that is up to you working stiffs. The place can be determined by consensus. Let's hear from all who are interested, and we'll go from there. Quote

Hey Rhino glad you brought this up ..... count me in ...... should be able to work with whatever date/time the group decides on.... no weekend work on the schedule so just have to worry about an emergency which is rare (knocking on wood). - brian Quote
songa Posted June 8, 2011 Posted June 8, 2011 hey guys, brand new to the forum here. got back into fishing and im loving it. im having some trouble finding some good spots tho. i never really had any real instruction on fishing so meeting up with some experienced/knowledgeable anglers sounds like a good time to me. im up for a MA meetup! lets keep this thread moving.

Super User Fishing Rhino Posted June 11, 2011 Author Super User Posted June 11, 2011 Let's hear some suggestions for dates and places. I'm flexible as to where and when. Since it will likely be a weekend to accomodate those not yet retired, I'd suggest avoiding anything near Cape Cod. Weekend traffic from July 4 through Labor Day is usually horrendous, and the ponds are clogged with tubers, jet skis, water skiers, joy riders and fishermen. Let's hear some suggestions. Maybe grille some burgers and dogs at noon (or at the end of the outing) and compare notes on the morning's fishing. Anyone with a tailgating grille? I've got room for a non-boater. Quote
grampa1114 Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 One vote for Whitehall Res. in Hopkinton....next weekend after the fourth.... Quote
Super User Fishing Rhino Posted June 13, 2011 Author Super User Posted June 13, 2011 Whitehall is fine by me, but not the weekend after the Fourth. Wife and I will be away. Any weekend after that should be workable. Quote
tate Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 Whitehall is fine by me, but not the weekend after the Fourth. Wife and I will be away. Any weekend after that should be workable. Whitehall sounds good to me as well. I think I'm still good for most weekends. After seeing Grampa1114 work those Sluggo's this weekend at Quinsig I think the rules committee should consider banning them for the day. lol - brian Quote
grampa1114 Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 Ok the old guys want to play...we've got room for non-boaters.... Grundle.... Ukbumpkin.... Songa....Jigfish'n.....anyone.....anyone Quote

I've got one spinning rod set up with four pound test. Six pound is ok, but the four is much better. Quote
ukbumpkin Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 I maybe be coming with a friend of mine if we can get his boat back in the water anytime soon, mechanical issues. If not I may take one of you up on the boat openings. As far as the weekend mentioned I am open and I've never fished Whitehall, but I'm certainly up for the challenge. Until then practice makes perfect and I just bought a new rod to practice with Quote
grampa1114 Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 The date is still up in the air and open for discussion....now is the time to make a bid for the perfect day for you....anyone...anyone... Quote
tate Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 Rhino .... Just like the not so famous Monkee's song "I'm A Believer" ..... I am now all set with a light 6' finesse rod...lol Ok I'll propose a date .....so the weekend after the July 4th week/weekend is July 16/17 .... how does one of those days work? .... either one would be fine with me. - tate Quote

I can do any weekend after that. Quote
grampa1114 Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 See...discussion is good...23-24 July.......25-26 June.....anything fit yet? You two slay me...you both caught as many fish as I did. Quote
Super User Jigfishn10 Posted June 14, 2011 Super User Posted June 14, 2011 Ok the old guys want to play...we've got room for non-boaters.... Grundle.... Ukbumpkin.... Songa....Jigfish'n.....anyone.....anyone Would love to, but my wife works every Sunday and I work every other Saturday. Thanks anyway grandpa1114. If a date gets set in stone on a Saturday I don't have to work, I would love to tag along with someone. Quote
The one that got away Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 I'm a bit late to this thread, but I'm up for getting together. Problem is, my daughter has softball tournaments (all local) the three weekends after the 4th. BUT that does not rule out me getting out real early and being off the water to get to wherever her games start. I went to Whitehall last weekend and got a few, but not much size. There are a ton of 12-14" bass in there, a lot of huge pickerel, and there have to be some monster bass in there but I have never found them. I'm hoping to get out late this Sat afternoon and then again early Sun (Father's Day) to one of my local hotspots. I've always got room in the front of my canoe, so let me know if anyone wants to get out this weekend. Quote
ukbumpkin Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 See...discussion is good...23-24 July.......25-26 June.....anything fit yet? You two slay me...you both caught as many fish as I did. 23-24 July I can do either, June I couldn't do. Quote
ukbumpkin Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 If we are still aiming for July 23-24 I would like to take one of you gentleman up on your back of the boat offers. Quote
Super User Fishing Rhino Posted July 2, 2011 Author Super User Posted July 2, 2011 Barring unforseen circumstances, I should be able to make 23 or 24 July work. How many are interested? Quote
Super User Jigfishn10 Posted July 3, 2011 Super User Posted July 3, 2011 Rhino, I'll make the 23rd work, heck or high water. I need some wiggle room tho, at least a week prior notice so I can get someone to take my shift. BTW guys, I'm a non-boater. Quote
The one that got away Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 I am doubtful. Won't know until a few days before that weekend. Quote
