Well whenever its scheduled still sounds like fun. Cutty was a ball,The Vineyard is a great time,Rhody in the fall is fun.The fishin has been up n down everywhere. don't mean don't fish there. sounds like a good time an maybe we'll find some fish. Maybe not but it will still be a good time. Keep it goin and if it gets big well so what. Have fun and enjoy. no place is private anymore .

I'll be there the first week of November. Crowds are generally non existent. I enjoy the island for what it is, to me the fishing is always great, the catching is a bonus. I'm also not into the tourney aspect but really enjoy the camaraderie of friends getting together. If members decide on Halloween weekend into November, I'll be there to share a few casts and have a beer or two.

Before we get any further down this road I want to have a conversation with the Boss man.

John, you around during the day tomorrow or Monday? PM me with a time and day and we can chat.

right now there isa time share available @ the Neptune House 10 /29 to 11/05 >>.1 ned for $500.00

how many does it fit

I really miss going on the cutty trip, the timing has been bad for me these past few years, so I would be interested in something in the fall if we can make it happen.

Just to keep this going (but not hijack the thread), maybe we can start figuring out what dates are best for those interested "early" or "late". Early being late September to early October, and late being late October to early November. Please post replies if you are still considering this and if you have a preferred time or dates.

Sorry I dropped the ball on this. I'm buried with "stuff" at home, with family and other things.

I'm interested later as I'll be on the Vineyard till the derby ends.

Kinda slow on the Cutty page as well, so I thought I would give it a bump on the "open" page and see what comes of it.

interested after the vineyard derby, and week days as i work on the weekends

I would be interested in going,have never fished on the Block,would be willing for the opp.to go.

Any additional movement on this. There really is something wonderful about being on Block Island after memorial day. Maybe an early September trip?

I am in the process of making another stupid decision. My CEO from 3 companies ago has come after me to head up National sales for a start-up software company. I will take the lead on this tourney if I turn him down. If I accept, I'm out as I will be back in the air 4 days a week.
Just have to decide if I have "one more rodeo in me".

Decision in the next 72 hours.

bump

Typically, my last striper of my Cape season is the first week of November. Sometimes as late as double digits November. Almost never as late as my birthday, the 16th. So, as a season extender, I start talking daily with my NJ shore based brother, and making a couple of road trips.

All of this is a prelude to suggest that a bitter end of season Block trip the first or second weekend November as a season extender, with some mutual shared misery and effort may have some appeal. It would be for me, and maybe also for Mr. Curmudgen Numbskull Christman as well.

Right now it looks like my scheduling would be post said Derby and not Halloween weekend....right now...but there are rumblings of Nebraska...uuuugghhhhh

Guys, I'm not accepting the job opportunity that I have been offered but I'll be too busy to run a trip.
We're gonna go South for the Winter so I need to button up a lot of stuff around the farm. We're leaving for South Carolina right after Thanksgiving and not back until March. With the blood clot issue Jeanne had this past March I'm getting her away from the snow and ice. We have family in Charleston so we're headed South
I might be able to join a weekend trip in early November but that's even iffy.

Good decisions on both accounts Paul!! I hope The blood clot issue was a little anomalie and she is better now.

Good move Paul.

Apparently it was Eben. She's coming off the blood thinner 30 days from today. Docs can't find any reason that it happened.

Thanks Jay. I'll be back in time for the launch of your new ride. ;)

Screw the Block - winter fishing at Paul's in SC ;)

GOOD MAN, Paul!

We'll have plenty of room. Rented a 4 bed, 3 bath house 1 block from the beach.

OK - if some of you really want to do this someone has to be take charge. I just contacted Samantha at the Neptune House (where I stay) and she said they have plenty of units available for the week of October 29 - November 5th. Two bedroom units have a queen, 2 twins, and couch and could sleep 4-5. Small kitchen, two showers. Her words to me: Have them call me directly. Should have plenty of room that week. I'll be in the office all day Wednesday and Friday!

Dennis, are you guys leaving the 5th or 6th?

Saturday the 5th.

unfortunately I am out of town the weekend before until Tuesday late, unfortunately only if I don't quit my day job to fish all this fall.

Derby plans seem to be blowing up due to work. If I pick a date for a long Block weekend in October will they come?

Give me a shout Bob
