After the good response from the spring outing, I thought we could do something either later in the summer or early in the fall. I'm thinking we could throw in a little camping to do some night fishing and try to find if there are any catfish at West Island.
It is my experience that the bite slows down in July and August. I'm guessing most folks will be chasing whitetails once October rolls around, so I say we shoot for a date in September. I know Rico's bash is Labor Day weekend. I don't know if any members planned to attend that or not, if not we can shoot for that weekend. I am open to suggestions as to what works for everyone, so let's throw out some dates and try to get something nailed down. If July or August is better, then I am open to that as well.
If Labor Day weekend is a no go, then I'll go ahead and suggest September 29th. The Bears play on MNF that week, so I won't have to worry about finding a TV to watch the game on Sunday.

Sounds like fun! Septembers when we usually start getting busy at work and right now I'm scheduled to work 3 Sundays that month; 2nd, 16th, and 30th. It's gonna be hard for me to make definite plans for anything this fall because we don't know what our OT schedule will be yet.....I don't even think THEY know how they're going to do overtime.

My great aunt worked there and her daughter works there now, so I know how the scheduling is a tad crazy. Sounds like August might be a better bet. I am open to any weekend in August.

Labor day won't work for me. That's the weekend I return from my fishing trip to Canada. As a matter of fact, I probably won't be able to make it the fall outing unless it's after I return from Canada. I don't want to spend too much money before I go since I'm not sure how much I'll spend once Im there. Don't plan around me but I'd love to chase those giant Crappie again

Really wish I could've made the spring outing (stupid sinuses). I'm usually busting doves during Labor Day weekend or I should say attempting to bust doves. I'm not too sure what our work is projected to do around that time. I've heard horror stories but I never believe any of them. It's a crapshoot.

Due to some recent developments at West Island, planning a meet & greet for the late summer/fall is on hold.
I can say that the jet ski is gone and I am fairly certain it won't be back.
