GB - looking roward to meeting you - it's not too late for you to turn away ;) ... Just wanted to see who's going - maybe an opportunity for the Northern Alliance to draft some new members over bloooberry juice

OK, let's see: long drive -> Jamestown Bridge -> Newport Bridge -> Blueberries -> Mt Hope Bridge -> show -> I195 -> I95, probably not for me that night :(

I have two tickets and had hoped my son could go but he has to work. My nephew had talked about going but have not heard from him I will call him and if he can't go I would be glad to give you the ticket but will not know till fri. or sat. so keep an eye out for me to send you a message then.

I think I'm going, though I haven't recieved my tickets yet.

Advanced ticket sales goes on til Jan 14 I believe. Go to the RISAA site , I believe they have details and a number to call for tickets. If you cwan't find it let me know and I'll post the message i got from the RISAA email list. It has the details but its at home and I'm at work so I can't do it til tonight.

I can't go. I'll be in Mexico.

OH,$10.00 a ticket !!!!!!!!!!!!!

You're right John, a long drive after a Bloooberry Social isn't much fun and doesn't come highly recommended.

Ya gotta watch out for the Bridge Trolls, too!

Looks like I have an extra ticket to the show. Milo has first shot but if you do not want it let me know and anyone else that needs it can then have it .I just don't want the ticket to not be used.;) ;) ;)

SOLD GB I'll meet ya there;)

don't forget to say hello to the crab.......:smash: ...

So I should look for the guy with the big bloocrab on his chest or back???Where did the name come from hobby of catching bluecrabs

yes...a little over 20 years now......( bluecrabbing ) and I love it...the "tug-of-war"...:laughs: ...

and yes, I'll be wearing my "rag"...:D

Again bloo,didnt ya learn your lesson last time we got shot at when ya put that thing on your HEAD:smash:

GB CHECK YOUR PMS

Milo got your pm and # now check your pms for my # see ya tue at 6:00

...For those of you who DON'T KNOW!!!...

..DON'T KEEP ANY FEMALES!!! ...

...A male crab, or "Jimmy", has a long narrow, inverted "T" shaped, apron on his abdomen and has blue claws. Some watermen say that an easy way to remember this is to imagine that a male crab has a picture of the Washington Monument on his belly!

...A female crab can be easily identified by the shape of her abdomen. Some watermen say that an easy way to remember this is to imagine that a female crab has a picture of the U.S. Capitol Building on her belly! Another easy way to tell a male from a female crab is that all female crabs "paint their fingernails"; i.e., have bright red claw tips. Males do not.


...lesson over :D

Don't keep females.......no wonder why you went to P-Town. :eek: :rolleyes: :confused: :D

Is that where bloo goes crabbing????? P TOWN I think he is after the wrong kind of crab.:laughs:

ARE YOU TALKIN TO ME??.... :jump1::jump1::jump1::jester:

Anyone meeting up beforehand?

I can't as I'm heading down from Bahstin instead of from home so I'll see you there... Sure could go for some Blueberries...

...I'll be at Tort's Sports pub..in Seekonk...hiccup!!!.... @4pm...its a cast away from the Old Grist Mill Restaurant...drive safe everyone...:D:happy:

Hmm, well, I think there definitely oughta be a social of some sort after the show. We got folks coming from far and wide - Krispy's making a long trek, among others.

Hey, it's okay with me, I'm safe - I'm the designated driver tonite :D.

I also got my tie-down straps in the Jeep for the Iron One, just in case :eek:.

Ooops, sorry, Krispy, I meant to add that I'm gonna be there at 6 with Iron Mike before the show probably in the vicinity of Fish_Eye's booth.

See ya there.

...Sorry I couldn't make the blooberry reunion...:(

..had to bring my cousin back to his wifee, she had called numerous times..:af: :af: ..didn't you hear that annoying phone during the show?!!!?...

..but it was good to see some familiar faces, Crafty...Krispy...the "Freak" who almost got naked on stage:eek: ( BM, he's cheatin on ya ;)..)...the "Iron" one...Mr. Fish Eye of course...Milo...and ours truly, ...JohnR...

..A few new faces too, ...keeperreaper, who I haven't seen on here yet...( what ya waitin for?? ..sign up bro! )...AnthonyN...and Mr. Cuttyhunk himself...:D GBOUTDOORS...I didn't get to chat with you fellas as much as I'd like, but maybe next time...:)

all in all, it was a Great show...a bit shorter than usual...but entertaining none-the-less...so whens the next show??...or gathering of the minds(less)...:laughs:


p.s.....doesn't that underwater footage just drive you mental??...:D:Despecially knowing its in your backyard!!...

Great to meet you all and put faces to the names. Fish eye what a GREAT show you had a picture of the house in one of your shots it is the one in the harbar showing the small island near the fish dock the house is to the left. My son has always talked about diveing to see whats up dpwn bellow. I can't wait to show him your video. He works for Mass. Div. Marine Fisheries and has just finished getting his deg. in biology. Mabe now he will have some time to fish with the old man.

Had a good time. Eye-ball sure is a different man when he doesn't have blooberries in his hand! :D

GB, SeaWolf, and John ( Seawolf's bud ) , pleasure to meet you guys and put a face to a name, or vise versa. I am sure we will meet again in the suds.

Seawolf, I ment to ask you, you got any pictures of your rod work???? Got Barter??

Ever notice that people from MASS in black Maxima's drive real slow???? MOVE OVER......slowpoke. :)

Good Show! It was nice to meet a few more people and put faces with the names... I was alos very impressed by the turnout of anglers to support E.B.A., very impressed. And I hope we'll see a few come in here....

GB, glad you got a chance to meet some of the crew.

Cap'n - Good to meet you last night...

Lefty has real humor...

I'm still amazed everytime I see that Whale Shark... Very Nice Video - Fish_Ball!!

Clammage, did you & BF head out early?

Thats it I get home today and what do I find but a story in The Fisherman by Charley Soares all about Cuttyhunk. I think I will go over on Fri. to visit a customer of ours on the island he will probably think I have gone nuts as we never send anyone over to see them. And not in the middle of the winter!!!!

I see it got your juices flowing too GB :)
