Can't Wait!
I'm getting excited.
Kentucky Lake? Never been there before. 8-)
Burley is going.....I shall pray for all of you.
That is also probably the reason why you don't have a lot more people..... ;D

Are you kidding? The number of attendees has tripled since I signed up. If I wasn't going there would probably only be 10 people going.
I would like to come but I will be fishing either on The Delta or Clear Lake in CA. If it weren't for my old man turning 60 this year I would not be making a trip to the west coast and would join you guys. Maybe next year.

QuoteSigned up and ready - 72 days and counting....
That seems like a long time but trust me, it goes very quickly....The 1st, 2nd and 3rd of April will be the longest days of the year. ;D
SPEEDBEAD, You flying down or driving?
QuoteSPEEDBEAD, You flying down or driving?
I will be driving down to WV to meet up with Jimzee and then off to the lake.
I have to see how much stuff I am taking to determine if I will be loading into his vehicle, or following in my own.
I only see one couple signed up. anyone else planning to take thier spouse and or kids?
There were couples on the trip last year. Anyone who wants to have a good time with a great group of people is welcome.
i might go ahead and be at Jimzees the night before wayne. And i will have room for your stuff as well.
Without getting too detailed, what baits would be best at this time of year and what patterns can be expected? Got some Christmas money burning a hole in my pocket and the bait monkey is calling!
QuoteI only see one couple signed up. anyone else planning to take thier spouse and or kids?
ghoti and his wife Mary are another couple.
8-)
Coldwater,
I am gonna go out on a limb and say spinnerbaits and jigs will get you bit.
Its really gonna depend on the water temps, but from what I understand we should be into fish from the top to the bottom of the water column.
Fish your strengths, fish what you know....
LBH and TIN are another couple
so are the Beast and Burley!

Just wait...
When we get closer to showtime, CJ and Bud will have some VERY
specific advise for everyone. These two guys "own" Kentucky Lake!

Just wait. Easy for you to say. I'm like a kid with Christmas coming up.
Can't eat, can't sleep, well can't sleep anyway.
Seriously, thanks guys. Should be a blast.
I might just show up. I have a tournament a couple weeks after yall leave. So I have got to wait and see. 8-)
Anyone else from New England?? I am looking to fly out on the 4th if anyone wants to make the trip alongside me.
LBH, with your track record with flying you better plan to leave three days early so you get there before it ends. ;D
LBH im flying in to Nashville on the 4th at 5pm. Won't be on the plane but can meet at airport possibly
QuoteLBH and TIN are another coupleso are the Beast and Burley!
Well normally I would debate ya on that one, but this time I would really love to make the trip and will go along with it just to make me feel better that my worse half is getting to go even if I can't.
Those of you who are flying into Nashville should send me your flight information (flight #, arrival time, etc.) I will try to arrange a ride from the airport for you. It's a 100 mile trip and could save you a car rental.
71 DAYS!!!
Ronnie
Ronnie, just seeing if you got my info?
I sent you a PM and your name is now on the website. You can't be anymore "IN" than you are now. Thanks for signing up! I can't wait to meet you.

Ronnie- Ditto.
Form and check mailed yesterday!
P.M. if there is anything you need help with or need to be brought.
I'm coming down with Uncle Leo and he said he got the last available room. Sounds like it will be a great turnout.
Is anyone going to be their on Saturday? I plan on being there sometime in the midmorning. Gonna be looking for something to do. Helping set something up, gopher, door greeter, anything? Otherwise, gonna go fishin'.
I'll be there...Let me know if there's anything you guys need me to bring to help out.
QuoteIs anyone going to be their on Saturday? I plan on being there sometime in the midmorning. Gonna be looking for something to do. Helping set something up, gopher, door greeter, anything? Otherwise, gonna go fishin'.
I also plan on being there around mid-morning Sat. Don't think we can get into rooms until mid to late afternoon so might as well hook-up and go fishing.
If it looks like there isn't anything to help with, that would be a great idea. If things work out, I'll look ya up when the time comes.
I'll also probably roll in around midday on Saturday, pitch camp and then fish. Hopefully there's cell service down there for most of us and we can hook up easily.
I've got roughly 600 miles and plan on leaving friday early evening. With one or two stops on the way down, plan on pulling in somewhere around 8-9 am. X2 on the cell service.
I'll be there whenever fivebass gets there...
They will probably PM everyone's phone number that is going on the trip. They did this last year and it worked out great. Pitchin Kid, Speedbead, and myself will be getting there around 2:00 PM on Saturday and probably set up camp then go fishing if time allows.
Pretty crazy there is no reserved rooms left already.
That doesn't mean that there's no rooms left at the Lodge though. They just set aside a block for us and now we just move into the overflow. lol
Now I'm excited. I'm glad to see so many of us going. I'm going to try to get there sometime late Saturday. It all depends on how work goes the night before and what time I get off Saturday morning.

Right now it looks like only 17 are going.... ;D So there were only 5.6 people going before Burley signed up???
25 members signed up! Deadlines are approaching. This is going to be a great trip. Don't miss out if there is any way you can make it! PM me if I can help.
Ronnie
That will be during school but I want to try to come up for the Wednesday night supper. Will I be able to come in and register before the meal?
Quoteno carpool of Texans? dang it. >:(b
So far I don't see any Texans.
Hey Brent, how 'bout a bus full of Cowboy Cheerleaders?
8-)

If youre looking for a texas carpool, there should be plenty of them headed towards colorado by april ;D
Look for white dualie diesels.
Who's going to represent Kalifornia?
8-)
Not I.
Matter of fact I think we are going un-represented at this one.
Based on the sign up page looks like the Boys from Illinois are represented.
QuoteWho's going to represent Kalifornia?8-)
I thought I saw Governor SpeedBead on the list.

Nicole is coming with me.
Had to send my wife and Mother in Law to Las Vegas to get to go. This week is mine.I got the better deal.

The .6 is Russ
I think we have around 50 members, but they are not
posted until checks are received. I hope everyone will
take a moment and think about joining the group. It's
a lot more than just fishing!
8-)
I have a countdown running at work I also haven't heard from anyone indefinitely yet about hitching a ride to the lake from airport. I am a planner and would like to make sure everything is scheduled before I leave the airport.
I know its early but the earlier the better...
Seems weird everyone's flying into Nashville and then driving to Kentucky when there's a lake just a hop-skip and a jump from the airport.

When does your flight arrive?
5pm arrival

If you guys ever decide to bring it over to big fish country then we'll talk Otherwise you can count us Kali guys out.... It sounds like a lot of fun, but i'd rather drive 2-5 hours to catch fish than 2-5 days. You guys have fun for us though!!! ;D

RW is only partly correct. It's a LOT more than just fishing.
8-)
If someone will let me know for sure that they will hold my registration packet and not let Burley take it so he can get seconds of everything...I'll make the trip Wednesday night
This sounds like it is going to be a really fun time. Its too bad money issues have me in such a bind. Hopefully next year will be the year that I can make it.
QuoteI'm in!b
I don't believe it. lol That's great new Brent.
Just an FYI for the guys that are going to be there Saturday, the BFL will be going on. Might be a little crowded on the lake. I'd love to go, but I just started a new job, and I'm not sure if I can take a week off.

Perfect. It sounds like a good day to go around and hit the Waypoint button. lol

That's exactly what I was thinking.
Natural,
Brent from *** and I are making the drive to Kentucky together and I have one open seat. If you find out you can take the week off you are welcome to hitch along. Vehicle and boat gas would be pretty cheap 3 ways. Plus you would finally get your stuff back. Would love to go fishing with you again.

That tourney isn't taking off out of KenLake is it? If so, I'll need to find another launch spot.
