Not looking good for me and my crew now

RickBomba 01-01-2012 04:28 PM

Well, now this is depressing...Well, we will be there!

JackK 01-03-2012 08:44 AM

I'm still in so long as there is ice, plus one, maybe plus three

Rappin Mikey 01-04-2012 12:01 PM

I think the last two days have pretty much sealed the deal. With every night below freezing up until the 14th, I'd say it is a lock!

RickBomba 01-05-2012 05:45 AM

Yup,
We are a go from my end. Looked at the temps above freezing there in the next week, and there is only one day (Sat) where the net temp will be above freezing (I mean high minus low).

I'll see everybody there. We will be at the hotel on Friday night in case anybody wants to hang out then.

781-439-1918.

Thanks,
Rick

Hi Everyone,
I spoke to the tackle shop today and the ice is not safe to fish. We will be moving the FoABBIT to Saturday, February 11th, 2012. Time and location will be the same. I will be calling the hotel to try to re-book my rooms on Monday (I need to speak to the manager).

Hope this works for everybody that might have wanted to go.

Thanks!!!
Rick

SurfCaster413 01-07-2012 03:12 PM

Rick I will be there with my guys now Feb 11th works great

RickBomba 01-07-2012 07:53 PM

Very nice, Dana...Now JAAAAAAAAAAY, will you guys be there? Kind of the same date as we would spend for the TFCTFN, just more North?

Rob Rockcrawler 01-08-2012 01:03 PM

Rob Rockcrawler 01-08-2012 01:56 PM

I thought that was a Bomba creation. My rod is going to be ugly enough without breakfast flavored vodka.

striperman36 01-08-2012 02:19 PM

Ha, I'll get some ukriain moonshine

RickBomba 01-08-2012 02:42 PM

Nope...Beach Plum Vodka...Bacon Bourbon. Had a snifter of the bacon bourbon last night. Good stuff. Too bad about Saltheart's rod building class...this was the only other weekend that we could swing.

Can I get a new rollcall when people get a chance?

Thanks,
Rick

If you were coming I might attend, that's how.

RickBomba 01-09-2012 03:39 PM

Just spoke to the woman at the Super 8. She charged me $50 to move the rooms for two nights!!! I later found out that she noped Phil Brown when he tried to move his 20 minutes later. Good luck if anybody has got rooms and needs to change them!
Sorry,
Rick

I have never heard of such a thing. Usually you can cancel a week before with no charge. Make sure you drop an upper decker before you leave.

RickBomba 01-10-2012 05:44 AM

Yeah,
We got cut-rate rooms because we booked them so far in advance. I can see if this was done through Priceline, or one of those sights, but this was done right through Super 8.

The woman said, oh yeah, well that's corporate and this is our motel, so you need to pay the penalty to us...she eventually called Phil back and said that she misunderstood him, but he still paid the penalty for rebooking. $25 per night, per room, plus tax. I guess it's better than losing the whole $130 for the weekend, that she told me I would lose in the first place.

I may be able to do the 11th with the wrong side of the lake gang
