Wild Bill [NY] Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 I have had a blast at many fishing roundups or get-togethers. Are any ever held in the NY area or here in the Northeast for members ? As much as I'd like to, I just cannot afford to go down south this year; money is TIGHT !! Quote
Wild Bill [NY] Posted February 20, 2012 Author Posted February 20, 2012 52 veiws and not even one response ? John Francho has met me and attended my "North Country Roundup" for members of another website that a we both belong to.. No, I am not an "axe murderer" if anyone is worried about that {Come on John, post that picture---LOL}. It's all just about getting together, meeting guys that we chat with on teh fishing site, do some fishing together, then share a shoreline BBQ at the events I host. I buy NY, NJ, and CT fishing licenses every year. Quote
grampa1114 Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 I don't know...you kinda look like an axe murderer to me....we here in S.E. Mass generally have a few gettogethers and you know you're welcome anytime with me. Unfortunately we haven't been able to coagulate this year, yet. We will though. Keep watching. Grampa Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 I'm with you Bill. Just couldn't swing the big trip this year. Nate Follmer pulled a few together for a PA meeting last yr but I had a scheduling conflict and couldn't make that either. I'd be in and pitch in whatever it'd takes to put together. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted February 20, 2012 Super User Posted February 20, 2012 It's just not safe.... Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted February 20, 2012 Super User Posted February 20, 2012 Haha that's an awesom pic I'd be for a ny or ne get together once I'm back next year if it was an annual thing. Quote
grampa1114 Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 So just for the sake of argument...what if the Northeast Membership were to meet at...Oh I don't know.....Congamond...or Barton's Cove...or Harriman Reservoir? Maybe around the middle of September...or August...or July? Is this worth the aggravation? Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted February 21, 2012 Super User Posted February 21, 2012 I don't leave WNY from April-December, when I am out fishing, I have to be able to be at work in 2 hours if I get the call. And I never know when I am getting a day off, I might work for 4 weeks with out one and only be able to fish evenings or early mornings, or I might get 2 weeks in a row off due to bad weather or waiting for crops to harvest, it's not good for planning things to go to, so as long as it's around here, if I could, I can and would go.

Megastink Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Hell, if were going to travel at all, it mines well be to a place worth it: -Candlewood in CT -the Patomac in DC -Northeast River in MD -Hopatcong in NJ -Maopac in NY Those would get my vote. I woud love to suggest a Pa lake, but there isnt one worth it. Dont hate, I live in Pa!!! Quote
Super User J Francho Posted February 21, 2012 Super User Posted February 21, 2012 Living where I do, it's REALLY hard for me to drive anywhere outside a 2 hour radius. That radius includes Erie, Oneida, Ontario (and all it's bays), and most Finger Lakes. Think of it this way, I can fish very weekend from April through December, and not fish any lake twice. Quote

We still gotta hit up Erie Quote
Wild Bill [NY] Posted February 22, 2012 Author Posted February 22, 2012 I think the park managers at Harriman would have a cow if I dumped my Ranger in there... Quote
grampa1114 Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Harriman Reservoir, in Wilmington Vt. has always been very boater friendly in the past. Complete with an Excursion boat, I don't think they will mind fishing boats. Quote
Wild Bill [NY] Posted February 23, 2012 Author Posted February 23, 2012 Ooooh ! I thought you meant Harriman in NY Quote
grampa1114 Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Soooo........we goin' fishin' or what? Quote
Super User J Francho Posted February 27, 2012 Super User Posted February 27, 2012 Soooo........we goin' fishin' or what? You should go to the roundup in July. I should be there with pork hots and "hot sauce." It's a blast. Otherwise, most common meeting grounds are just too far from good water right here. Quote
