2nd Annual Fathers Day with Floatsum!

[GunnySniper]

Float will get all the details as the day approaches as far as location.
I will handle the Emails.
Are you in?

[BryanL]

I am 100% in... missed this one last year, should have went...

[Striperjim]

So far the only thing cast in stone is Date. The evening of Saturday June 14th, 2008.
Tides will be Full @ 5:44 pm, Low @ 12:09 am. with about a 3 ft. drop which should have some good current for some areas.
Moon should be just about midway between first Qtr. & full.
The above in my estimation is prime time. (but what do I know?)
I've a few spots in mind for the falling tide, and some others for the rising.
As the time approaches I'll be trying to track movements of bait and fish to try and make a good judgement call so we can catch ,,,, SOMETHING this time.
I'll be looking at several selected areas in case the wind blows like last year.
I maybe looking for some sort of RSVP to to get ideas on accommodations for parking and fishing room for all.
This will be in South County, South of "The Bay" / North of the Pawcatuck River. I expect we will be mobile.
At least 2 of the areas I'm having high expectations for would be great for Yaks & canoes (but definitely not required).
Updates as the time approaches.
Looking forward to a good year this year.
Floats

PS; Conditions permitting, I'll try and pick areas good for plug, bait, & fly. Waders may be nice to bring along as well as korkers. Suggest bringing your favorite Surf & Jetty rigs. For Jim and myself, I'll try to avoid the "Billygoat" trails.

[scone]

Float, anything i can do to help on this one shoot me a pm.

My buggys got 144 K on it already. It should be good for another 144.
Floats Im learning how to pace myself better and travel extremely light.
Plus dropping a few extra pounds wont hurt.
Its critically important to be in shape for the season.

That would be my error Floats. All registered members have access.
I need to change the permissions for this forum on a post based promotion. I couldnt figure out the best way to do that without creating a seperate gatherings user group with an automatic 3 or 5 post promotion.
The problem with doing that is that is there is no opt out option for the mailers without individual user permissions. So the alternative was to create gunnies groups 1 and 2 where you opt in and gain access to the mailings and leave it open to all registered users.

Or lock it completely. Except to gunnies groups.

Float can I get in on this one?

[GunnySniper]

As with all gatherings, all members are welcome to attend! In fact the more participation, the more you will be eligable for at next years summit.
As soon as I get the flood waters and some honey do's out of the way, there will be a notification Email sent out explaining the structuring for some great stuff to come.
