wv Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Sorry slaynbass365, I did not see your post until I was over at the boat. I took a quick look but could not figure out it, unfortunately it started raining so did not have much time anyway. I decided to take it to Maryland Offshore, there is a guy there my club highly recommends. They will fix the lights, give it a look over and take it for the inspection. Under a time crunch to get the previous owner his tags back so this is my best option right now. WV, not to confuse things but if you come down 28 there is a right turn onto 117 if you take that it will run you right into the lake. When you get to a stop sign at a T intersection take a left this is 121. You will pass over the lake, about 3 miles up there is a set of S turns with Old Baltimore RD in the middle (its right after a big set of open fields on your right. Take the right onto Old Baltimore RD and the park entrance is on your right. The boat ramp is the first right after pass by the little building in the middle of the road. Congrats on your boat and thanks for the directions. If the get-together happens we'll take your advice. If the weather is nice Sunday maybe we'll give it a shot this Sunday. Thanks again. Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted October 4, 2011 Super User Posted October 4, 2011 Thanks, hopefully after tomorrow the inspection and DMV paperwork will be completed. Then just wait for DNR to send me the boat registration back, and I will be ready to go. I just pity who gets stuck with me, will be my first day on the front of a boat.... Quote

I just pity who gets stuck with me, will be my first day on the front of a boat.... lol I dont think the lake will be too rough on you....its taking it out on the river for the first time where it gets tricky. Glad to hear you got it all worked out tho, and if you ever want a partner to get on the water with- let me know, i'm right down the street. Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted October 6, 2011 Super User Posted October 6, 2011 It won't be rough, just won't be up to par on boat control and positioning since I am not used to running the front of the boat. But will be a good place to get an idea before going to the river for the first time. Got the inspection done, off to the DMV at lunch today to hopefully get it registered and get tags. Everything should be in order but you never know going there. Then just wait for the DNR to send me the boat registration. I will get in touch when I am going out I am sure we will figure something out. Hopefully the weather is good on the 16th and we can all finally meet. Quote

Weather. com shows both the 14th and 15th to be sunny and 65...doesnt show the 16th yet but im hoping it's the same. I'll probably be out either way, I've been trying to go out a little every day or at least 5-6 days a week to various spots- rain or shine. Had a doctors appointment at 8am today, woke up early and got to the water at 6:30 and got a solid hour in. Hoping the registration and tags goes smoothly for you today. Quote
Fat Boy Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Congrats on the boat Brian! I can't make it on the 16th, unless I get home early enough to meet up with everyone later in the afternoon. I made a mistake, thinking that the get together was off or moved to a different date, and made plans with my wife...dumb thing to do, I know. But, spending time with her may buy me future fishing time... ...plus, well, I'm still in love with her If it's a different day, then I'll make sure to free up time to make it. Quote

I need to retract my last statement. If we do it on the 16th, then I can make it. I got my weekends mixed up. I think that I should be OK any weekend after that too. Quote
Hellbenderman Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 My wife says I can go. What exactly are we going to do? Can we cook weenies in the parking lot? Quote
slaynbass365 Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Since the 16th is quickly approaching (this coming weekend), can we get a final head-count, time, etc.... and Will us non-boaters be paired with a boater, or be fishing from shore? Quote
301-fisherman Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Sorry Have not wrote or checked back in a while but are we still meeting at Black Hills? I have been there every day the past week or two and fishing has been ROUGH to say the least Quote
JigMe Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 are we still going, if not, I am going to OC this weekend for some off shore fishing? Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted October 10, 2011 Super User Posted October 10, 2011 Plans are to still do it, just need to confirm what time to meet and once we get there who is fishing with who. Quote
wv Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 As far as I know my son and I can be there this Sunday. If we fish from shore that is OK. As for time...mid-morning would be good for us. I am figuring at least an hour's travel not counting any time lost due to getting lost. I'm guessing each person brings their own food? We are open to any ideas, times, etc. I think with the directions that Brian gave us that we can find the boat ramp. I was hoping to get there this past weekend but it didn't happen. As for fishing...we don't catch fish as much as we catch fish...so not expecting much in that regard. Quote
basser89 Posted October 10, 2011 Author Posted October 10, 2011 Sorry I haven't posted much lately, between work and my daughter, time hasn't left much time for me. As I mentioned before. I won't be able to make it this weekend. Rather than keep pushing it out just for one person, I say everyone keeps the date. Sounds to me that there should be enough boats for everyone to fish off the bank. I will say, shore fishing could be slow but there's still the potential for some decent bass from shore. I made it out for a lunch time outing on friday and managed to get a 4lb 1oz treat on a buzzbait. As for time, wv requested a mid-morning meet up. How does 9 sound to everyone that can make it? Do a meet up at the boat ramp and everyone can pair up with boaters and head out for some fishing. Let me know if you want to snag an empty pavilion to do a cookout. I'll give the park manager the heads up. If you are doing a cookout, let's post a list of who's bringing what, that way everyone isn't bringing hotdogs. LOL! We'll do another get together in the spring, I'll definitely be in for that one! Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted October 11, 2011 Super User Posted October 11, 2011 Am I scaring you off again Sean, have not hardly fished with you this year. Don't worry you can make it up to me by joining my club next year I will be there, 9 sounds good. I will be in a black Nissan Titan with a red Ranger 520VX. WV, sending you a PM with my phone number if you have any questions on how to get there let me know. Quote

Driving either a Toyota Tundra or a Scion tC...But I will most likely be outside by the ramp with a black jacket and black backpack. Brian- Are you part of a club? I'm looking to join one here in this area soon/asap lol. Any info on yours, or any that you know of would be great. Quote

WV, sending you a PM with my phone number if you have any questions on how to get there let me know. Thanks. Got your message. We'll be in a white Pontiac Aztek. Put us down for the drinks. Just let me know any preferences...like diet. iced tea, soda, water, etc....cans, 2-liters, bottles...not sure about recycling, trash rules for the park. We'll leave Martinsburg around 7:00AM to get there at 9:00AM. I'll check back in to see who brings what and I'll adjust what I bring. If we boat fish...we just have two cheap flourescent vests that don't fit too well. Hope we get decent weather. Thanks again Basser89 for all your effort and I'm sorry you cannot make it but family should come first. Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted October 11, 2011 Super User Posted October 11, 2011 slaynbass365, I am part of a club called Fish On Bass Anglers, www.fishonbassanglers.com. We are based out of the Germantown area. We do tourney's at Black Hills, lower Potomac, Lake Anna, Lake Gaston, Deep Creek, Conowingo, and Smith Mountain (some years). We just had our last tourney of this year, but the November meeting starts discussions on next year. The meetings are always the first Wednesday of the month. If you are interested let me know if you have any questions, would suggest coming to the meeting to get used to how things work. It is a great group of guys, I have learned a lot over the last two years. Quote

Then what? Stopping time? Weigh in? Golden Rule? Wemins waitin by the dock? How much are we puttin in the pot...how about a hundred...pennies. I'm about 195 so maybe a bit too heavy? I am still looking for a boat to ride in tho. Definitely would make it a fun little trip if we had a pot, like $5 per person, biggest fish takes it. Anyways, I'm open to whatever. Quote
KenLattimore Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Hey Guys, Unfortunately I won't be able to make it out this Sunday. My wife is working, and I've already cashed in my babysitting coupon with my mom for an event I have to attend on Saturday evening. Sorry for the late heads up, but I was trying to work something out but it's not in the cards. I hope everyone has fun out there and maybe catch a bass or two! Please post some pics. Good luck! -Ken Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted October 12, 2011 Super User Posted October 12, 2011 slaynbass, I am 220 pounds and I fish out of his boat. Can we get an idea of who is coming and if you have a boat? I personally have lost track at this point. this is what I know so far (if you need to add your name copy/paste this list into your post and add your name to the end so we have a running list) brianinmd hellbenderman slaynbass365 wv lee.md Quote
Hellbenderman Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 You weigh that much? It's on Sunday? Better weather! So, who is going with me? Quote
