S-B Peddle/Paddle Kayak Fest!!
 
Alright....here is the scoop! The First Annual S-B Peddle/Paddle Kayak Fest!!! Alot of us guys have purchased kayaks recently and a few have had them awhile! There are several on here with them and I thought it would be fun to get together early one morning on the south shore and hit the water together then head back to BigFish Base Camp for a cookout!!! Just a fun day of yakking and fishing and then have some chow and a few cold ones or whatever your tastes are! The deal is it will be a pot-luck so everyone brings a dish or something!! I will have a grill here! Lets see how many have an interest?? I am thinking a Saturday end of August or first weekend in September (I will have to check the surf tides so I/We do not miss any canal tides which may be optimum?). So any thoughts??? Interest?? Lets talk about it??:gh:

BigBo 08-03-2010 02:40 PM

I'm in.:uhuh:

fishbones 08-03-2010 02:54 PM

Sounds like a good time! I'm in as long as I'm not away at the time. I'd like to actually get some use out of my yak this season.

Rockport24 08-03-2010 02:57 PM

If I can get a pass from baby duty I will be in!
never yakked on the south shore, I'm usually not allowed down there, can't you catch bonito down there at that time of year?

Just a reminder that Labor Day is Sept 6, the first weekend in Sept.

THeres a great launch spot at bournedale herring run...

BigFish 08-03-2010 06:54 PM

Just checked the tides the 28th and they are breaking in the am at the ditch...so that weekend is out! Is anyone opposed to Labor Day weekend on Saturday?? Or Sunday???

The Dad Fisherman 08-04-2010 06:15 AM

So this is where all the cool people hang out....

I'm in for this....depending on the weekend.

BigFish 08-04-2010 06:20 AM

Let me know if you have plans Labor Day weekend?

BigBo 08-04-2010 06:36 AM

As of right now, me and the Mrs have no plans for Labor Day weekend. :buds:

BigFish 08-05-2010 07:10 AM

HELLO???
 
Looking for some dialogue! Any sincere interest or no??:huh:

Slingah 08-05-2010 07:20 AM

Yes. Sincere interest here Larry. Once everyone agrees on a date, I will pencil it in. We'll need to find a place that will accommodate everyone's vehicles. Maybe someplace like Hingham Harbor or Duxbury PP Bridge.
Depending on the number of vehicles, perhaps the Herring River dirt ramp in Scituate off the Driftway. You can squeeze quite a few trucks in there inside the stone wall.
Once we get a head count, we can plan some refreshments and food. I will definately pitch in for that as well.

BigFish 08-05-2010 07:38 AM

OK.....lets try the 28th of August? Time and exact location to be determined.....let me check location tides! Does the 28th work??

BigBo 08-05-2010 07:40 AM

:uhuh: Should be OK for me.

BigFish 08-05-2010 07:42 AM

PP Bridge that morning is too low I think Bob?? Thoughts on low there?? Driftway looks good.....dropping to 8:42 am low.

BigFish 08-05-2010 07:50 AM

So let me know if you are in guys and we will start a list of attendees! This will be a fun day!!:uhuh:

BigBo 08-05-2010 07:52 AM

That would definately rule out Hingham as well. You have to trudge through knee deep mud in order to get to open water. :smash:
At least in Duxbury, you don't go through mud and you can get into the deep water channels fairly quickly. Overall I'd say the Herring River might be the best bet since you put in right in deep enough water. And us paddlers can catch the incoming tide on the way back to the ramp. Not too far a paddle/peddle to the North River, South River and the mouth if we want to go out in front of 4th Cliff.
Maybe someone can come up with a better location, but that doesn't sound too bad to me. :uhuh:

BigFish 08-05-2010 08:10 AM

I think its a perfect tide there that morning....dropping on the way out the mouth, will give us time by 4th to fish a while and catch the incoming tide back up the river and back to my house afterwards for a cookout!!

BigFish 08-05-2010 10:10 AM

Tagger?? MAC?? Have not heard from them??? I need my fellow Hobie-ites to represent!!!:gh:

BigFish 08-05-2010 01:28 PM

BBJ, Fishbones, Rockport, TDF.....you guys in?? Be good to have you all along!!

fishbones 08-05-2010 01:37 PM

I'm gonna do everything I can to work it out so I can be there. I'm getting back from a week vacation on the 26th, so it might be a little difficult, though. I should know more in the next week or so.

JohnR 08-05-2010 02:51 PM

I would if I had a YAK (next year maybe?)

Backbeach Jake 08-05-2010 05:17 PM

In for the 28th. Just tell me where and when to be there and what to bring.

BigFish 08-05-2010 05:40 PM

Awesome Fred! Be glad to have you!!:uhuh:

BigFish 08-05-2010 05:45 PM

This will be an early morning launch! Meet approximately 5:00am at my house in Hanover??? How does that sound?? I know a couple guys live a good distance away?? If you want we can pitch a couple tents in my yard and you can come Friday evening?? Thoughts??

Slingah 08-05-2010 05:48 PM

I'm really bad at making plans and dates....forgot all about other plans...
sooo...looks like I am out
Have fun people...
