Hey guys, sorry I had to bail on the dinner last minute. Sucks! It's always a great time! Anyway my little girl is on a nebulizer every 4 hours since Thursday, so it's a bit tough to leave her with a sitter.

There's always next year! I wonder who won the trip? I'm sure the crew from last year rigged it, LOL!

Hope everyone had a great time and ill see you all soon!

What a fantastic time! I can't thank all those involved enough for all the effort that went into pulling this off so spectacularly.. well done!  clp clp  It was great meeting some old friends for the 1st time..including my table mates Matt and his lovely lady Amanda.. and always great seeing some familiar faces..albiet I had a hard time recognizing some of you guys without all the raingear  ;D While this was my 1st one, it certainly won't be my last!! To much fun to miss.. Besides,  when I got home I plugged some stats into my "Luck Matrix" model.. and calculated that if both available prizes and my standard luck coefficient remains consistent, I will only need to attend 11 more banquets before I win something!  fcp  hhppy  chrz chrz

I heard there was a 'offical' photo taker, so I stopped. I thought there would be shots of everyones table and who attended but I dont see any. I promise next year I will be sure to take many MANY more and make sure I get table shots too!!! Anyway I had a tremendous time, yes we did close the Tiki and remember to 'hit it then suck'  cfzd Fill y'all in on that one when I have a chance too! Love you guys!!! No worries, I have just been beyond busy with work and life. You guys can't get rid of my that easily!!!  :-* :-* Talk with everyone soon!!!  msfsh

grtn :-* grtn :-* Hellllloooooo family! Better late then never yea?!?!  msfsh Hopefully the word was out that I was ok and work was beating me up! Lots to catch up on. (5-6 pages worth  thud)
Let's start here... I had such an amazing time. It was truly MY pleasure to meet some of you for the first time and see those of you again that I have met and or fished with before.  My Table: What can I say....IT ROCKED!  the wives were just as sweet as their husbands. Perfect Matches!!! Rod, thanks for sitting me with this group. Most definitely some of my favorites!  t^
The Party: WOW what a set up! The food and atmosphere was great! If we only had Paulie DJ-ing to get everyone dancing...  ;D Actually with all the prizes and food stations there wasn't any room!  The 'After Party".... Well...I think it's best to say...what happens at the "Tiki" stays at the "Tiki"  :P   
Finally... njswf7b I'm RSVPin NOW! I wouldn't miss next year for anything! (mayyyyyyyyyybe for a TUNA TRIP hint hint) Rod... if you let me,I'd LOVE to take the photos next year! And trust me, I won't miss getting Al next time! It will give me a chance to meet so many that I missed meeting this time around! Lastly, if I could change one thing, it would have been spending more time with you guys! Remember "hit it" then "suck"  ;D For those of you that haven't figured that one out yet, its how to drink 'Lemon Shots' chrz Oceans of Love and Happiness my NJSWF family!!
