Sadly, I don't recall any french fried potaters, maybe next time.

John it was caught from a jetty, so you have a chance. 😃@Johnsfolly Albert McReynolds made history and national headlines when he landed this massive 35.6 kg (78 lb 8 oz) striper on the night of September 21, 1982, while fishing from the Vermont Avenue Jetty in Atlantic City, New Jersey. It took McReynolds nearly two hours to subdue the record fish in the midst of a Nor’easter after it hit the Rebel 5.5-inch black and silver lure he was casting. Although Gregory Myerson’s catch now stands as the new All-Tackle record, McReynolds still holds the IGFA Men's 10 kg (20 lb) Line Class World Record for his famous catch. No comments yet

When I was stationed in GA, close to 50 years ago, I fished the Chattooga river a couple of times. It has hike in access at some spots so you can get away from the competition. It also has tributaries that are in SC and NC (I think), so you can target a few states in one spot. Wild trout are there too. Chattooga River Trout Fishing

Indeed - those are some great fish!

And hey, the food was great! Thanks to you folks that did the preparation! And I got a nice T-shirt! Life is good! 😄

No fish pics from me. I fished one day in Brett's boat, we probably caught 50-60 trout on jigs, no big ones but a couple nice 14-16 inch fish. A lot of scrawny rainbows, they need to get those fish on a nutrition program. Here's DC III and the boat and motor both of which he has rebuilt himself. He's put together a nice ride. DC, if you want I'd be happy to email the pic to you. I did not take this pic, but me and Brett fishing with a neat sunbeam on us.

Well I do have time for it, could not get away with it when I was young and working.

I have not found anything that's getting easier.

OK. looks to be a lot of wading. You've got two days to get into shape. Here is a wader workout instructional video.

According to windfinder, 5-10 MPH north wind Friday. Saturday light winds.

Picked these up at WalMart. It's like they designed these for Jigfest. TRAYS!

Lo Mein is good stuff!

That sounds almost like healthy food.

Late start today, started about 10 AM and fished until 4 PM. Fished the banks, caught 20 bass, mostly spots, on the ned rig. Fish were in 5 - 20 FOW. Around wood and rocks. This is the time of year the fat spots are biting, one of my favorite times to get them. No one on the water today, I saw 2 other boats. I can't remember the last time I was on this lake and only saw 2 boats. WT 54

It is getting close, if anyone wants me to bring any ingredients for food, let me know, I'm going to the store tomorrow to get the plates, etc.

That's Joe - dunno what it is. Maybe he will see this and reply.
