NoLuck Posted July 19, 2007 Author Posted July 19, 2007 Ok John, That sounds good. Hopefully the weather cooperates and is a somewhat cool at night.If we can get more people to camp out it will make it even better. I used to hate sleeping in a tent until I bought a Thermarest mat.That is some of the best money I have ever spent on outdoor gear. I have been staying at the super 8 when I stay there but, camping will save us some cash. I'll probably get down to Bennett this weekend too if you are in the neighborhood. Cya later, Rich
hfdhoosier Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I am goihg to try to go Tues-Thurs. I plan on pulling my pop-up camper. I will probably have a bed or two open in the the camper if anyone needs a spot. It has cool AC too if the weather is hot . I still have a lot to learn about fly fishing, and will gladly trade some cool AC for a tip or two . I will probably reserve a site next week. Cant wait to meet ya all.

Kansas Fly Fisher Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I bought a thermarest just this year and it's GREAT! I don't know what I did without one. It's made tent camping fun all over again. Hopefully we can get a bunch of us to camp and continue the fun at night back at the camp site. Wish I could make it this weekend but I've got to work. I start a 48 hour shift at 8 p.m. tonight and won't get off until Saturday night. Have fun and catch a few for me. John Born to Fish, Forced to Work KSMEDIC.COM
hfdhoosier Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 KFF: I start a 56 hour shift Fri night thru Mon morning. I am a paramedic from Highland Illinois. Hope to trade some good stories with you. Long hours, little sleep, got to fish to keep sane. See ya in Sept. HFDHOOSIER Dennis Eat, Fish, Sleep,....Repeat Member: ozarkflyfishers http://www.ozarkflyfishers.org/

gonefishin Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I plan to be there. Sounds like a good time. I would rather be fishin'. "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote." Benjamin Franklin, 1759
flyfshn Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 that would probably work for me.....just another thought....the Ozark Fly Fishers are having an outing at Montauk on 8/17-8/19 and since I have never fished there, I made camping reservations. September works for me, just wanted to throw this out in case anyone is interested! Fish On! Mike Utt “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.

hfdhoosier Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 Has anyone made reservations at the park yet? Im getting ready to make reservations and wondered what loop people were planning to stay at. I have not ever been to Bennett and was wondering if anyone had preferences on campsites. HFDHOOSIER Dennis Eat, Fish, Sleep,....Repeat Member: ozarkflyfishers http://www.ozarkflyfishers.org/
Kansas Fly Fisher Posted July 26, 2007 Posted July 26, 2007 I usually stay at campsite 5. It's the "first come first serve" site. But in the middle of the week you shouldn't have any trouble getting a site. The reservable one's are nice, but 5 is IMO the best. More trees and such. John Born to Fish, Forced to Work KSMEDIC.COM
NoLuck Posted August 21, 2007 Author Posted August 21, 2007 Hey Gang, Just a shameless bump to the top to remind you all. Its starting to get close to that day. September 19th. Hope to see and meet all of you. Take care, Rich
