Winter getogether on North Shore?

How about something a little more local for those of us up this way? Open to suggestions. I'd like to see some rod building and maybe even some tuna rigging. Why not combine a couple different things? Big. Small. Monthly, doesn't matter. Just could use something local to get through the shack nasty winter.

Let's try a date. How does Saturday Jan 31 sound? Too soon? Day before Super Bowl a problem?

Then where and what?

I am up for a gathering. I am traveling in mid-February but any other dates would work.

My GF is having an "adult toy " party gathering at our house on Friday the 23rd of January. She has asked me to be "absent" from the house but I have few options. So that night would work well for me- OR- we could all gather at my house that same night. Can you picture it? 10-12 guys in my man-cave drinking beer : and talking about plugs and fishing whilst 10-12 girls just above us upstairs drinking wine-coolers and talking about sex and vibrators.

I'd be interested too. I'd like to meet more of you face to face. Let's hope spring comes soon by making the winter pass by. I've resorted to playing the Rapala's Fishing Frenzy game on my son's wii. They even have stripers to catch. It's more fun than you think.

Let's get our heads around a couple things...

What do we want to do? Just get together and BS? Rods? Plugs? Tuna gear? A swap?

What are the dates for other events/shows? Nothing on the site calendar... don't want conflicts.
TFCTFN Feb 28
Plugfest Feb 21
Plum Island Feb 21
MSBA March 7-8

Lastly, while this is a thread I started, I am not in a position to be the chief on this, so jump in!

Can you dudes do Feb 7?
my vote for activities is to just sit around and BS, but guys should bring anything they want to show off, like plugs, rods, kayaks, boats, etc.

Feb 7th is good for me. BS with a bit of show and tell/trade is all good as well. Let's pick a location. Is the hooters in Saugus central to all?

TFCTFN is the 28th.

Settle on what you are going to do and I'll try to make the road trip (if you'll have me )....

How big is the Man Cave? Might be good for some reel maintenance too?

My mancave is just a workbench area in my basement- not adequate for a group- however, my house in Gloucester is big enough for a gathering-
Let me propose this- Feb 7th, 2PM-7PM
We could eat, drink and BS the day away.
