Guys,
It looks like Saturday is going to turn out to be a great day to fish. If you are planning on fishing why not come out and fish the Chicopee section of the River and the Ct River Shootout.

The water levels don't look like they are going to be too high or too low and the bite should be hot.
I know Gary P is already counting his money but, you never know. There are a lot of guys gunning for him and Rivernut.

We hope that some of you decide to join us. We are taking Signups until 6:30 and fishing from 7:00-3:00. Call with any questions 413-626-8286.

Dave.

This is what I call "pain in the A@# high". Easy to navagate but hard to catch the big ones, My bro and I prefished yesterday and got 15 and lost another 10, It was a typical Gary day with the boat not starting on the trailer. Had to disconnect the kill switch, then while fishing , I had a pointer stick into the carpet, when I yanked the pointer, it went sky high and landed in the muddy water and of course sank a few feet and as it is a true suspender, never came back up! My bro kicked my butt 11-5 and then we drove all the way home only realizing when I pulled into the driveway that we left his car at the bowling alley in Noho in the morning!! Arghhhh!!!!!

Gary, It sounds like Rivernut should be fishing with your brother instead of you. Your brother keeps kicking your but. Can you do me a favor and not park your boat anywhere near mine. And don't get insulted if I don't shake your hand in the morning. I don't need your bad luck rubbing off on me. I have enough problems fishing the Chicopee section. Only Kidding, (sort of) see you Saturday.

[Gary P]

I'll bring you a banana!

[bassbuster77]

New rule just added : bananas or any other yellow fruit or vegetable resembling a banana brought within 500 ft of tourney waters and or boats will result in immediate disqualification of the angler(s). all trucks and boats will be checked fully before entering ramp parking lot.

[JeffA]

I like bassbusters idea. We are going to add the Banana rule. Let change it a little. Every boat with exception of the Tournament director (me) must have a Banana in their boat at all times during tournament hours.

[SmallieHunter]

[Gary P]

Friendships have been torn apart because of the banana, right Dave!!!!!!!!! I'll have 2 for you in the morning so each of you ( Dave and SH) will have an excuse in the afternoon! Both Dave and I are having troubles with the boats, Working on them in a mad scramble today to see which one we will be able to take.

[Gary P]
