BAM II Report

I had a great time. thanks to Sean Leah and all who helped put on this event.  I did catch the winning catfish 8.25 pounds with an overnight soak of bait.  Saturday tried for the winning striper but had no luck.  Came in around 12:30 to try and beat the heat and then tried for one last hour around 2:00pm.  Droped my bait, paddled in and then drank some excellent beer that Molbasser made mixed with the boont amber ale. Came down to check my bait around 9:00pm, picked up my rod and saw there was no line left on the reel   I should have known this was going to happen, next time I will use a reel with a clicker and set the drag much tighter. Also thank you to surfing marmot for the cuban cigars, I enjoyed them alot .

What are the requirments? I'm 5 ft 8in tall (with boots on)..What else qualifies, back hair? toe hair?

"Hobbit Nation"
and and we recently drafted our new member = Randy

I knew that, honestly!
He started the whole pig's head idea, then enlisted the young ones, etc., etc. etc.

To be a member of the Elite "Hobbit Nation" a "sub-culture" of NCKA.....your feet have to be:

1) LONG
2) WIDE
3) HAIRY

Excuse Me? Long, Wide, and Hairy? Exactly who does the screening for this subculture?

After looking at Randy's feet, he is our new king! All hail!!!

 

Thanks to all who put on the event.

I left my house about 0530 and drove out to the lake. We all hung around the beach until about 0630 as we watched the cat get reeled in. After that it was light enough to launch. I paddled across the lake and headed south trolling. I stopped in the second cove and threw out a spinner bait a few times. I landed 2 large mouth, 1 dink, and one about 2 lbs. After that I began trolling again and went around the point to crappie cove... Nothing  Then i paddled across the lake and headed north NO LUCK.....

I had no fish to weigh in but i could not put a weight on the great time I had. Food and company was awesome.

Two events and I am O-fer on the raffle

Congrats to the winners. Nice fish Bsteves

You can thank Mickfish for your last raffle o'fer. Seven prizes out of ten tickets is insane. He either should have been at Vegas or played the lotto that weekend!!

Funky note.

My striper was full of anchovies when I cleaned it.  Must have been stripping off bait from other hooks.....

MolBasser

that is funky....

mine were all empty....

Are you sure they were chovies? The lake is full of threadfin and inland silverside, I would guess it was one or the other.
