Fall Get Together?

Ok so some of you cant make it in the spring.. should we try having a second get together say in the Western Part of the state, maybe at Rough River, or at Barkley?
Some time in late September or late October?
Jim Dicken

Jim,

I certainly come if at all possible. I'd love a fall get together. Also, I'd prefer Barkley. I've never been to Rough River, but then I had never been to Barren until the first get together, and only the second time this past get together.

I think we can get at least another 15 more guys at Barkley or KY lake.

Danny

what about coming to Cumberland. I didnt go to Barren because it was too far. Some where closer to the eastern kentucky boys.

OK maybe we need to have one in the spring at Barren centrally located and a fall one and move it around. Barkley this year and Cumberland next year, followed by Rough and then Cave Run..
How does that sound?
Jim

Stay away from the Cave....not if you're looking for the Musky bite.

I'd be interested in Cumberland. Cumberland could really be a big turn out.

But we're going to have our Fall Rodeo for the creek and river fisherman. Usually the Ky River has a fishable flow at the 1st of October. So depending on the date and where will matter.

I will say upfront Rough or Barkley is not in it for me.

Jim,

You can not ever please everyone. We chose Barren this year, and in years past because several of the EAstern guys said KY/Barkley was too far. They said they would travel to the central part of the state. That hasn't happened. By the same token, the western guys won't come to the central part either.

It seems there is more participation from eastern guys. My suggestion is cater to the majority. Have it in the east. See if you can get a better turn out.

I can honestly say, I can not afford, especially while out of work, to make it a two day affair and stay at a hotel, so I won't make a cumberland or dale affair. But, you will likely have many more show up there anyway. Billy won't come west, we hoped he would come to Barren, this other fellow says that Barren is also too far... so have it east.

You can not and will not ever please everyone, unless you want to have many seperate events at many seperate lakes.

Good luck Jim, you have a lot of work a head of you. I'm often sorry I ever even brought the subject of a get together up those 4 some years ago.

Although, most of the eastern guys probably go to Billy's get together anyway, so make sure you don't conflict dates!! Or, maybe the best thought would be to merge the two... maybe that would work.

Danny

Thank you Billy.

Your post was made while I was typing mine, and you absolutely prove my point.

Danny

actually Danny the majority is right here in the barren area that is why the vote AL-ways leads to Barren . I know of at least 25 here that because of other fishing commitments couldn't be here for this one. moving it to Barkley or Cumberland isn't going to get any more probably less and you haven't even considered the northern folk. You cant please all and i know that you personally are going to try to get it past Barren next year even if it is the majority.
here is the problem you ask for a location first then a date. vote on a date at this lake and a different date at this one and a different date at this one then we can check our calender and see if we can come before you vote then maybe you wont end up with a bunch of votes that cant show instead have people ready to fish that date and that place

Everyone voted for Barren Nolin was second Ruff was third KY /Barkley distance fourth Cumberland no where to be seen so has I said earlier let the majority decide. Lets not try to get Jim to just pick a lake or move it around to suite one or two lets just plan on having a good fishing trip and a lot of good food to eat.

Fisheater & myself was going to come to Barren for the get together, but we had a club tourny that day. We would be interested in a fall one so hopefully we can get there. Rough would be the preference we have. Barkley & Cumberland is a bit far for us. But if time and money is good to us we will be there, where ever it may be.

I'll tell you how we can have a good tournament. Everybody put up their entry money to vote on a lake and time. If the lake & time that you voted for dosen't get chosen, then you can get your money back. That way everybody that voted will be in.

like barren oct 1, nolin oct 2, barkley oct 3 ,rough oct4 ,cumberland oct 5 now pick a date and a lake you want thats how it need to be if i am feeling well i will go anywhere but yatesville and fish i dont care i will drive without whining but it is the date that is the kicker.
