View Full Version : Plug get together 2003

11-08-2003, 01:42 PM
The Striped bass fishing season is winding down for some of us and it's time to start to think about another Plug building get together. Last year was alot of fun and I thank everyone for helping it be successful. This year it would be great to have one in the fall and even maybe have one later on in the winter.
Last year Don Bliz suggested we should think about having the thing at some kind of Hall or something and since there were so many last year I think that would be a great idea this year as I think we have outgrown my small workshop. Anyone have any suggestions?

Also we need to set a date, I assume Saturdays work good for most folks.
So maybe we can use this as a discussion thread for now.

Hey guys, this is a discussion thread not a I want to come ,can I? thread :p
I'm sure many people want to come but we have to find a place to have it or we will be doing it outdoors at Bassmasters house:laughs: fat chance:rolleyes:

anyway, if you have some suggestions please feel free to discuss them here.

We will have a separate sign up thread later on, OK? :cool:

Bob, I will put your rubba in my wood:eek: how's that?:smash:

Hab, ofcourse you can come and yes, Melissa will supply the brownies:happy:

I will ask about a place nearby and we are working on another but maybe someone has a suggestion for a place that will hold a bunch of maniac fishermen and some tools. We may have to have a small ticket fee to get in ,to cover costs this year but I figured you guys wouldn't mind since we have outgrown my shop.

OK , carry on.

Bruce, I'll ask a local guy (works in Middleboro) if he he knows of anywhere in Middleboro that is available for rent. Kind of need to nail down a day or a couple of days first though before I approach him.

Slip any help I can be just let me know. There are a number of places in the Falmouth area such as the Knights of Columbus hall on Brick Kiln Road ( easy to find) And the Portugese Navigator's Club on Sandwich Rd, ( also easy to find) and then there is there the Order of Eagles club behind Main St Buzzards bay ( where the have the breakfast all you can eat buffet every Sunday morning). That place would be Ideal as everyone knows how to get to the canal and Main St BB. Just some ideas. A hall might not be available before Xmas though what with the Holiday coming up. Also, I will see if Stifftip can bring something to put in the Brownies!:laughs:

Oh yeah, wherever it is they gotta be cool with people bringing lathes and such and making a lot of sawdust and have ample outlets. Also Maybe On the Water could help out.

Sorry - just saw this thread! Works for me though 11/22 will be B-day parties (including my son's) so I would need to bow out of that weekend...

We don't have much for site reserves but I can certainly kick in a fifty towards a hall rental (because of the fund raisers you guys have done :btu: )

I speak for myself but I would be willing to throw somethin in the kitty for a get together if need be...I would bet others would too?

I think if we find a place and hammer out a date, everyone can pitch in a couple bucks towards the hall fee and blueberries afterward (making sure people will help clean afterward :D )...

This has been a lot of fun for all the years Slip & the Boss have held this at their house for everyone (and S-B :D ) and I think slip rightfully doesn't want the boat to be found as a wood source :laughs:

I think Flap brings up a valid point, if you are going to do a hall, after the holidays would be easier to line one up, and would probably be less dough. Also, most of us have a free-er schedule then.
I'd be willing to buy a ticket in the spectator/student section, kick some in for grub/rent, and mayby bring something from my smoker.. (no, not what some might put in the brownies :laughs: )

And if Flap can get OTW involved, awesome!

Think that would be the best time, Bruce. Hard to get free time between Xgiving and Xmas.

My gosh it's already winter. :(

Hey Slipknot I'd love to come along and I can throw a few bucks into the kitty for hall or such. As far as location, There is a very cheap hall in the home of saltwater fishing (Woonsocket, Rhode Island) LOLOL :happy: :laughs: But, I'm sure after the holidays would be much better for getting it.

Armand,

ps. that is if broomsticks are allowed :smash:
