Getting the word out a little early but I'm figuring that some point in February -possibly around Presidents Day weekend- we'll have the Reel Maintenace Party at my house in Rhody.
Last year we had that party at Slip's too but I want to see if we can spare him from emptying the cookie jar early again this year

, even though his wife was a very nice host (Slip - that wasa nice plug in case she's leaning over your shoulder

). It was pretty stinking good for all those that attended.
I figure we'll have it in my basement so we do need to limit to about a dozen or so people.
We will need a couple fold up tables and perhaps a few people familiar with various reels.
Also bring stuff that you might want to change out like the Smoothies for the ABUs, some mild solvents, old tooth brush, yadayadayada...
So holler if you want to sign up - already 8-10 people have expressed interest but there are some probables that may need to bail:
So far:
Clamdigger
STEVE IN MASS - probable
Slipknot
Goose
TheSpecialist
Scotch Bonnet
GBOUTDOORS
Fishpart - probable
Bloo
Saltheart ??
Smokey ??
