[Bucktail]

Man!  I really had all intentions of taking a lot of pictures.  But this is all I have...

What a fun night!!!  Thanks to Bucktail Bob Fishnfool and Hotrod. 

Joe(jigamafish) won a charter(that he WILL be taking me on) and Caster won 2 setups(that he WILL be giving me one).  Even though I didn't win, it was still a great night.  Got to meet some very nice people.

Can we double check the numbers on the aquaskinz stuff?     I want a re-count!!!  PMP!!

Gottog(Mike) and Teresa - I am sorry I left without saying good bye.  It was great of you  to help with the snafu rigs(even the extra's in the bag ).  Thank you both.  Mike, if Teresa isn't a lurker, please pass on a thank you to her.  Thanks.  Oh and how didn't I win that trip on the Sea Hawk again?  I wouldn't mind hooking up with you guys to fish for some tog.

The more I read the more sorry I am that I missed out.  When this site started I would of never believed that there would be a party like this let alone a sponsored one! You guys rock!

[Hunter 2]

We need another shindig.. Goodtimes were had by all!

[gottog]

Was a great time
I was a little out of it as I'd been feeling under the weather all week.  Made the mistake of going flounder fishing sunday morning and after we got home I crawled out of the shower into bed and stayed there until Monday afternoon  

Anyways, great to see some familiar faces and many new ones.  Gifts were excellent.  I won two and have some great knives now
T won two in a row including one of the basket for da ladies

Seeing T's pic on the cover of the AquaSkinz catalog was a surprise.  She was showing it off on sunday at the Sea Hawk

Thanks again Rod for getting this all together as well as all the sponsors and others that worked to make this fly.  Kudos to you all

[Uncle Luna]

Those who missed out this year will have to join next years They won't be sorry.
Good time was has by all.

[Uncle Luna]

I never really used any plugs for stripers but since I won them at the party I will try now. I checked the website bob hahn has and there is alot of nice plugs prices seem reasonable too.

[Sam3]

Those who missed out this year will have to join next years They won't be sorry.
Good time was has by all.

If I wasn't in Florida the week before, I certainly would have gone. The wife had other plans made when I got back.

Really looked like a great time.

I went to Dick's sporting goods store today to see what I could get with my $50 certificate I won at the party.

Just so happened that Bob (Bucktail) was working today. He pointed out some clearance items they had. Great prices, but I did not need any of the items he pointed out. Then he remembered they had the Shimano Charter Special 200 at a clearance price. With the certificate and a small amount out of pocket, I am now the proud owner of another Charter Special. 

Thanks Bob and Dick's sporting goods store, first, for the certificate and second, for all your help today in making my selection a good one.

The reel is already spooled with Power Pro line and hopefully will be put to use tomorrow. 

Can't wait till the next party. 

[Bucktail]

Hey Joe,

Thanks for the kind words.  Good luck with the new reel!  

The next party is in AC tonight! See you down there!

-Bob
