Pacemaker Fishing Forum

Yes...we are participating in the NHBA tourney from my CC boat! I always get laughed at (2 previous tourneys) but what the heck...it's a fun tourney ($10 entry fee) so we have nothing to lose. It's just funny seeing my boat among all of the sleek bass boats. Also, I think we will be the only boat with more than two participants!

Sorry you can't make it but there will be other opportunities!!

Now I get to dangle Thai....Charlie may have a back seat opportunity so as soon as I hear from him, I will know if we have an opening.

Here is the lnew ist:

Fishing- me, Dan, Coz
Waiting- Charlie, Thai

I can't go due to this work thing I have going on.....nice offer though.

Learn from the master!

If I were Dan.....I would do this in a heartbeat!! Then he can tell us where the fish are or http://www.mccotterslakeanna.blogspot.com/

We'll just look for the glow in the water..............

T, that's awesome. Any chance you could post some more from south of there?

I am going down on Friday to test my boat after getting it out of the shop.  I wouldn't mind having some company. Plan to leave at O'Dark Thirty Friday morning, pick up boat, fish until about 5 p.m., load boat, head to John Decker's place for dinner and then to my nephew's house for the night.

No beds left at the house, but plenty of floor space

Anyone interested in keeping me company?

I'd feel like a fool not to take Mr. Taylor up on this offer!

Charlie, I will talk to my boss tomorrow and see if I can get Friday off. Unfortunately I have to be back here Friday evening, but I can just follow you down in my car and drive back after 5. I'll email you tomorrow morning and let you know... Thanks!

Mike

Who is this MR. TAYLOR?

The young men on this Forum respect their elders especially the ones that know how to fish...that's right Mr. Taylor!! 

Charlie I'm in! Email sent.

Looks like I might head down by myself so I can get back in time. I'll need to walk the dog around 5, especially since I will have to walk him so early in the morning.

Will there be enough room for me to park down there?

I have a ride...

you think we'll run out of parking Ernie? Is there somewhere else I could park down there?

where are we meeting?

Mr. Taylor, do you have any idea if there will be an extra space for me to park my car if I drive separately?

Thai- There are only 2 seats on my boat...one for me and the 3 of you can fight for the other one. Of course, the cooler has a padded top so 2 of you can share that. How are you getting there (don't know where you live).?

Dan- We'll get the parking squared away somehow. I am sure a car can be parked on the street. We will need to meet there but can figure it out later.

I think we need to stick to 2 rods as much as that pains me.......otherwise we will have 8 rods sticking out the back, no fun trying to work around them.

Disclaimer- I have not started the boat since Dec. 30....as a matter of fact, the only time I have been near it was to drive it form one fix it place to another last week. The fix it was for the trailer. I will work on it Friday afternoon (I will get it then)....let's just hope all is well after being uncovered for that much time.

Gentlemen:

No Fighting!!! 

While it isn't a sure thing, we normally have one or two boats show up with no passenger. If this is the case, we will shift partners around to fill the boats.

We are limited in parking at the ramp by the 14 ramp permits we have.  However, my nephew's house is just a hop, skip and a jump from the ramp and we can park additional vehicles there.

DIRECTIONS:

a. Take I-66 west approximately 20 miles to Gainesville, Route 29 South. Follow Route 29 approximately 36 miles, past Warrenton and Culpeper to US 3. Turn left onto US 3, go approximately 1/4 mile and turn right onto Route 522. Continue on Route 522, approximately 35 miles, to Route 208. Turn left at Dickinson General Store onto Route 208 and follow until you see a crossroads with a sign reading “North Anna Visitors Center”.  Turn right onto Kentucky Springs Road, Route 652. Follow Route 652 7.8 miles, across the railroad tracks, through the flashing light at Route 700, across Dike three and past Elk Creek Store on the left. Turn right at Bohannon Road. Proceed .3 miles and turn right on Cuckoos Nest Drive. Follow this to the dead end and turn right onto Elnor Road. Elnor Road will dead end at the ramp.

b. Take I-95 South, past Fredericksburg, to Thornburg exit, Route 606. Turn right on Route 606, continuing 8 miles to Route 208. Turn left onto Route 208 and follow until after you cross the main lake. Continue to Route 652, the first left after crossing the lake. When you pass Anna Coves on the right, slow down, as you will have to make a U turn to the left to get on Route 652, Kentucky Springs Road. Follow Route 652 7.8 miles, across the railroad tracks, through the flashing light at Route 700, across Dike three and past Elk Creek Store on the left. Turn right at Bohannon Road. Proceed .3 miles and turn right on Cuckoos Nest Drive. Follow this to the dead end and turn right onto Elnor Road. Elnor Road will dead end at the ramp.


For those who are going to be parking at the house, pass Cuckoo's Nest Drive, to the third house. This house belongs to my nephew and will be used to stage extra vehicles.

Be sure to be at the ramp before 7 a.m., as the gate will be locked before the tournament can go off. Tournament OOZE OFF is at 7:00 a.m.

Looking forward to seeing a number of you on Saturday morning.

Charlie.........
