Could be a 1 day, or an overnite.
Winnebago area?
Wis river area?

Lets hear it guys and gals.

Hmmmm, has anyone heard from pointer? or sanger? joel? javsam?

As always, anyone that can make it, would be welcome.

Well, I'll throw out Aug 3rd as a date, if anyone is interested.

Gonna try to keep this bumped up and visible for a week so others can see it.

Don't know what you are all thinking, so lets hear it.

So......
Was it something I said or did?
The economy?
The fuel prices?

OK, I'll stay home if you guys want to have an outing without me.

I should be able to make it this year. I will have to bum again on the boat. With gas prices hauling a boat that far dont make much sense. I will keep an eye on this thread.

Hauling a boat how far?

Anyone want to suggest a location?

No camgrounds around these parts. They were all bought up by rich people. Lake of the Woods would be cool but that is a haul and can be a nasty lake for lower units. I am game. If it does not pan out Roscoe we can meet somewhere and fish if you are open for that.

I apologize I have been so busy with stuff but I might be able to join if it were near Oshkosh on Winnebago, the Fox or on up from there. I actually sold my small boat a week ago and really don't have access to an easily trailerable boat but I would like to meet some of you guys.

I'd be game for it once we get my fathers truck fixed or I get a truck.

Re: So are we doing a WI get together this year, or not?

I am like a broken record. As usual it will depend on work. Summer is the slow time of the year so often physical inventory is scheduled then. The date for that is still in the air, but probably August/Sept.......its about a 6 week prep time.

Also there are other things in the works......might get promoted in the next few months and the will throw everything for a loop. Might be going to the Fod du Lac store.........would be right by Winnebago then :)

I would be interested in going depending on if I have time away from work.

We'd love to get together again.
Winnebago system would be great. Aug 3 doesn't work for us, maybe later in the month?

Pony, you'd love Winnebago. But you might want a bigger boat.;)

All I can say is I hope to be able to make it.
Depends on location and other things going on.
I promised last year and couldn't make it,but I
did enjoy the first year get together.

Got to pay off the new truck first :)

I love to fish walleye and have never had the privelege to fish that lake.......which is sad since its one of the better walleye fisheries in the country.

Only kids 7, 9, and 12. Sorry, no 8 years olds. :)

Of course they are all welcome.

If it happens, it will be a very informal event.
We will all get a chance to meet and you are free to sit and chat, or just say high and hit the water with your family.

Some will likely choose to hit a sandbar and have a beer.
Others will probably spend their time tubing or fishing.

OK, so is anyone going to jump in and declare a location?
Just remember that some of us have smaller boats.

We need a date and location.

How about July 19th or Aug 2nd?

Anyone care to narrow it down suggest a location?
