Shad Rallies

[Todd]

Back in the day there were quite a few of us that would go to the north and south Rally’s
KBass- Striper Steve- Me- GoldCup

I would love to attend, so I would put me in the interested depending upon date and ability to get away from work! South end and late Spring would definitely be my preference, although I'll admit I am a novice fishermen an understand the timing may be best to coincide with when the fishing would be best. I understand some of the rally's grew to be quite large and very well organized. Possibly in resuming we could make it more casual with a pot luck and /or fish fry.

Will “The Big Johnson” be there?

I’ll bring the 87 Octane and Tequila.

Called "The Mother of All Rallies" in the South, Kevin Z , Tim, Mondo, Pete and crew set us up for lots of food, fun, friends and Fishing. We arrived Thursday for Prime Rib dinner at Antelope Point, followed by Kobe burgers for lunch at the cut, and Kobe Rib eye on the grills late evening. Oh yes and the SHAD rally fish fry and pot luck on Saturday.

This was before I joined the Shad Rally's, but I found it saved on a lake file. Gold cup, I think you made this, correct?

Dont tell my wife about this! She'd be all over organizing something like this and driving me nuts in the process. Looks like a hoot and would love to attend if theres one this coming summer
