Impromptu Paddle-In??

[Heywood]

Since we are cancelled for this Sat, anybody still want to get together for an impromptu paddle-in??

[Rik]

Yes!

[snooker56]

Where and when (time) did you have in mind?

[Rik]

As long (south shore) as it isn't way up north (south shore), I'm good (south shore) but I will hold back (south shore) my preferences until others (south shore) have responded.

[Heywood]

South Shore of Palma Sola

Anywhere south shoreish works for me. Whats the weather, (winds) for Sat?

[Rik]

52 with 6 mph E wind at 7 a.m., 72 with 1 mph S wind at 1 p.m.

Lovely winter day to fish.

Joe's Island might be a good spot. Only one problem, last Sunday a fleet (new Carolina Skiffs, at least 6) of mullet netters were working the area over. Almost ran a friend of mine over.

There's always the Roach. Simmons has been really good. Last Saturday we had the place to ourselves.

[MarkM]

I am taking my gold darts to DB, as per the original plan, where I will proceed to catch a 90" slam that won't count for anything.

All are welcome.

[1okbyme2]

Anything SOTE sounds good to me.

[bassboy]

Bill is right we had simmons to ourselves plus a good side show with the hogs but im in for wherever on the south shore. I will see if jon wants to join us as well.

[Heywood]

We could do Simmons and have a little cookout afterwards, how's that sound?

[JoeS]

I haven't been on the water since Sept......I would be interested in EGS or anywhere on the SouthShore.......I will get doctor's ok tomorrow(I hope) .....

[1okbyme2]

Simmons sounds good to me, a new spot to try.

[MarkM]

Geez, from the sounds of it, you guys are glad the tournament got canceled so you don't have to fish in the dreaded north end of the bay. What, is it a lot colder up there?? Puzzzzzzzzies......

[Heywood]

I'll fish anywhere Mark, it seems the SOTE boys dont want to drive that far.

[MarkM]

Yeah, I guess I don't blame them. DB is only 8 minutes from my house, so that's why I'm fishing there. Good luck wherever anyone goes, should be a good day for it.

How about a little bragging rights tournament? Everybody has a bag of gold darts they don't know what to do with, so post your pics with a gold dart clearly stuck in the fish's mouth, and let's see who wins!
