Plugger's bash 06 - Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating

Jigman · 02-15-2006, 12:32 PM

Ok, I've been talking with a few guys trying to get something set up for the fall pluggers bash. Need to get some input from people as to when and where we want to do this.

If we move it to Rhody, Bernzy has said we could do it where they stay. Big deck, couple of grills, water within a few feet of the deck. Would allow for test swimming plugs and maybe a few demos on how to use certain plugs. Also grilling food. Probably have to be Sat, Sept 30 if we go this route.

Cape, probably something like we have done the past couple of years. Hang out in a parking lot, talk and swap plugs, then fish afterwards. Are there other options for where we could do this to allow for grilling and be close to water?

Montauk has also been suggested as a possible location. I have never been there, so others would have to fill us in on where/what to expect.

Happy to entertain other options on this too.

For those of you who do not know that the bash is, it is an afternoon of plug talking, swapping, ho'in, and general bsing. A great way to meet other builders on the site. We also fish after the bash. The last couple have been pretty informal, and that is how we'll keep it.

Should also mention that we'll be setting up this one in conjunction with another of the plug building sites that most of you visit.

I'm in. Rhody sounds good, so does Montauk though

Where ever it is I'll be there for a few days or so.

Canalman · 02-15-2006, 01:55 PM

I'll go...

I think Rhody would be a better bet... but I don't fish Montauk so maybe I'm totally wrong

But I do know that whenever I think of Montauk, I picture 1,000,000 rods sticking out while fishermen give each other dirty looks. I might be wrong about that too... if its in Rhody I'm in if its in Montauk I have to ask permission first

M isnt all bad. It gets crowded during the fall but in the spring/summer its fine. Plus if you guys have it at M ill be able to make it, ill bring a BUNCH of beachmasters

eastendlu · 02-15-2006, 02:15 PM

Fish M at night as the googans are mostly gone as the sun goes down.

A beach house may be tough if a lot of guys deicide to show.

In RI, there is a great place called the canochet or canonchet club right on narragansett town beach. It is a nice hall with a kithcen attahced and a big deck on the beach. I have been to several wedding receptions and one funeral there and it is awesome. I imagine rental durring the summer would be pricey, but maybe, and I should repeat MAYBE, it would be affordable in late october/early november. It is right on Narragansett Town Beach, just northeast of the town beach pavillion. you could walk down the beach and be at the mouth of that famous river that was burned this past summer........

I'd be intereseted. I've read about them in the past...looks like fun. Rhody or Cape fine with me.

RI sounds pretty cool. Are there motels for us out of towners?. If it's held on Sept 30 The Jersey Yellow School bus crew may beable to stop in on the way to the Cape!

There are plenty of motels in the area. I can hook you up.
We will have the Condo from Sept. 24 thru Oct. 4. It's about 10-15 minutes off I-95.

How about combining it with the sol ditch fling and having it at the canal?
there is water, fish and we can barbaque, plenty of parking, plenty of room, and many places to fish even nearby if ya don't want to fish the canal itself.

maybe Bernzy wouldn't mind traveling a little ways and remmenise with the canal again

I was just going to type about having it with the Rhody Leg of the 4 Leg, but if you do the Ditch SOL bit I'll sneak in

Slipknot · 02-15-2006, 07:20 PM

If it's in RI we could definately combine it with the Rhody leg.

kill 2 birds with one stone, or in clammahs case, kill 2 bluefish with one plug

Biggest problem that I see with that is that whenever the "F" word is used, fishing sucks and so does the weather

When you say combine it with, you mean the same day? In that case, I would vote no. Be much harder to talk to other builders cause you would have a bunch more people around. Not that I don't like other people, just that it would distract some from the main intent of the builder's bash: get some builders together for a day out and some fishing.
