Not Yet Ronnie -- How about a nice Georgia lake?
I am open to anything - plenty of good ones here - Eufaula, West Point, Clark's Hill, Lanier, Hartwell, Russell, Oconee (We could stay at the Ritz Carlton between the golf course and the edge of lake - I think rooms start at about $300 a night) - Sinclair, Jackson, Seminole, and a few others. Or I will travel! Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |

Southern Classic 2005
I know we hashed this around before -- but I'd suggest to the group we
expand the offerings to 3 events a year. I know, not *everyone* could make all three, but it might open the doors for some of our lurkers -- or geographically challenged anglers --- to attend one of these fun tourneys. Big O is farther than I care to travel but I think it's an awesome place for a tourney -- especially with Moe and Doc in charge. Georgia / SC/ Texas all have outstanding fisheries. And if Tennessee is great, Barkely sounds awesome -- maybe fishing from either the KY or Tn side. And while we're on a mini - rant: how about if Warren, Rich Z and those two from NY/NJ: ThunderKing and AlwaysFishboy get together and put on a North East get together. Heck, we could do a spring, summer, fall and winter tourney!!!!! (PS: Yes, we could do an Iowa tourney -- but the only hawgs here have four legs and are standing in light at the slaughter house. Now deer hunting, hmmmm, that's a different news group) Thundercat wrote: On Fri, 30 Apr 2004 10:24:02 GMT, "alwayfishking" wrote: Eufaula sounds nice to me, but hey Okee wasn't too shabby.

I would be there for the Big-O next year had trailer issues this year (new
axel on the way) or I would have been there this year. Lake Toho would be nice! with a few fish camps on the lake and a multitude of motels that cater to anglers real close. add to that you have Disney world, Universal Orlando, sea world, Kennedy space center. gatorland and Arabian nights right there to help convince the family to go.

Southern Classic 2005
There are just too many good places to fish between Kentucky and Florida,
that it's getting hard to decide which ones to fish. Here are some good ones (not based on personal experience) in the Tennessee Area. 1: Kentucky/Barkley Lakes (I've fished Barkley) 2: Douglas Lake 3: Old Hickory Lake (Fished this one too) 4: Watts Bar 5: Pickwick 6: Reelfoot (Think very shallow) 7: Nickajack Lake 8: Center Hill Lake 9: Dale Hollow Lake 10: Tellico Lake 11: Tims Ford Lake Of the above lakes, numbers 1, 2, 8, and 9 would be my choices for another Tennessee location. Kentucky/Barkley lakes would be a more centralize location for almost everyone and maybe we can even get some of the Westerners to think about joining. April is always a pretty good month, as is May. I'm free for anything next year. "RGarri7470" wrote in message ... Any plans set yet? Dates and lake? Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |

The only trouble with Toho is they pulled the plug out of the bottom of the lake and let most of the water out. I don't know when
they plan to end the draw down. Doc "Roy Randolph" wrote in message ...

I really like Center Hill and Hurricane Dock - Fritz and I had a great time -
no fish like the big ones in Fla but good numbers and those spots fight hard! I am open to anything. I figured everyone would be wanting to return to Okeechobee after this year's results. Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |

Eufaula sounds better.
"Jerry Barton Yea - Eufaula was pretty good for me while yall were in Fla. Sat tournament took 18 pounds to win there, and I could have weitghed in 15 to 18 every day before the weekend. So the time of year can be good , and the facilities at Lakepoint are great - but they are remodeling and may be closed next year. They have cabins, rooms, resturant, a marina and camping all in one spot. Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |
Southern Classic 2005
The draw down is in 4 year cycles and shouldn't be a problem next spring and
if you plan it in early March you will see weigh in bags busting out with possible 30+ pounds.Add to that you have the Kissimmee chain to play on. This lake is just the right size for an event like this not to big not to small with big hawgs and keepers all over the place and if you want to you can make a major run to another lake or two. I for one would love to get away from all the snow here in Michigan during March with weather in the mid 70's to low 80's during that time you wont get fried either. Don't get me wrong I wouldn't mind Kentucky/Barkley either I got a tournament there in April next year so I wouldn't complain. "Doc (The Tin Boat King)" wrote in message ...

I still want to return to Okee, I would be more than happy to have a NE

Hey Randy: Think summer! If not 2004, how about next summer.

Water's too skinny down there in my opinion. Too long a run to those bustin
smallies up North too. What better place to start than half way up the lake? The VT scenery & surroundings blows away that South end too. Gotta go for the whole experience on Champlain. Heck, Mallett's Bay is like a giant lake itself, perfect for those smaller boats. WW "RichZ" wrote in message ...

what I've seen. Warren "Fritz Nordengren" wrote in message news:MYCkc.1776$TD4.160871@attbi_s01... Hey Randy: Think summer! If not 2004, how about next summer. Like I said, everyone may not make all three -- but I know there have to be a bunch of NE ROFB'ers who could get away for a 3 day weekend. I've already looked at Mapquest (20 hours) Dang I might even drag the boat! alwaysfishking wrote: I still want to return to Okee, I would be more than happy to have a NE Classic up at Champlain and would gladly donate my time setting things up, at the same time I wouldn't want to take away from the NWC, after all this was the place of my first ROFB tourney and the beggining of many friendships here. So I wouldn't want to take away from that. I couldn't possibly do all three in 1 year. and strangely enough the thought of missing one is not something I want to think about. Now if Mr. Huber wanted to take a break next year from the wonderful job he has done in the past, then that would definetly open up the possibility for a good NE classic. And while me and Harry have a list of about 24 lakes we want to fish together, boom lake is the lake I want to pull a limit from,(in 1 day) and besides no one throws an after hours party better than Steve. IMO : ) "RGarri7470" wrote in message ... I really like Center Hill and Hurricane Dock - Fritz and I had a great time - no fish like the big ones in Fla but good numbers and those spots fight hard! I am open to anything. I figured everyone would be wanting to return to Okeechobee after this year's results. Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |

Well I will be in mid season of the BFL and NBBAA during the summer so I
don't think I could make it. April in FL is a great time for me with snow still on the ground I can go fish in warm weather and not get in the way of my tournaments Did any one see Shaw G. on TOHO today on the OLN channel? All I can say is big fish! "Fritz Nordengren" wrote in message news:nTykc.5415$J71.631351@attbi_s03... So how about it? Champlain in Summer if not this year, put the wheels in motion for next year? And as a note, while prizes are cool and all, I think just as a many people would come without goodie bags and door prizes -- and if you wanted, you could make the dinner a "bring something to share" pot luck like of deal.... Any of your NE cohorts want to scout out a lodge/campground/ neighbor's front yard for us to call home? go-bassn wrote: I for one would LOVE to see a NE Classic on Lake Champlain. That way RichZ might even show up lol. Mallets Bay would be a great starting point, in the Burlington Vt area... Warren "Fritz Nordengren" wrote in message news:strkc.3714$NI6.557214@attbi_s01... I know we hashed this around before -- but I'd suggest to the group we expand the offerings to 3 events a year. I know, not *everyone* could make all three, but it might open the doors for some of our lurkers -- or geographically challenged anglers --- to attend one of these fun tourneys. Big O is farther than I care to travel but I think it's an awesome place for a tourney -- especially with Moe and Doc in charge. Georgia / SC/ Texas all have outstanding fisheries. And if Tennessee is great, Barkely sounds awesome -- maybe fishing from either the KY or Tn side. And while we're on a mini - rant: how about if Warren, Rich Z and those two from NY/NJ: ThunderKing and AlwaysFishboy get together and put on a North East get together. Heck, we could do a spring, summer, fall and winter tourney!!!!! (PS: Yes, we could do an Iowa tourney -- but the only hawgs here have four legs and are standing in light at the slaughter house. Now deer hunting, hmmmm, that's a different news group) Thundercat wrote: On Fri, 30 Apr 2004 10:24:02 GMT, "alwayfishking" wrote: Eufaula sounds nice to me, but hey Okee wasn't too shabby. I'd just as soon go right back there as a matter of fact I am going back there and everyone can come too!!!!! If it is at The Big O next year, I will be there. No questions asked. I would LOVE to go back there if at all possible. However, you know that Eufala is on "The List" and would be a no brainer too. Santee Cooper didn't look too shabby as we drove across Lake Marion last Sunday... "Jerry Barton" wrote in message ... Well if it isn't Mr. ThunderBuoy! Hey Now! *Ding ding*.....

Eufaula sounds better.
"Jerry Barton Interestingly enough, I was looking at the May Field and Stream and one of top 5 places to go for bass in the Where To Go article on Bass Heaven (p132) is West Point Lake and Highland Marina. (I wonder how much they had to pay?) The Georgia Top Six will be on West Point in early April next year (out of Southern Harbor Marina.) Ronnie http://fishing.about.com |

There are just too many good places to fish between Kentucky and Florida, that it's getting hard to decide which ones to fish. Here are some good ones (not based on personal experience) in the Tennessee Area. 1: Kentucky/Barkley Lakes (I've fished Barkley) 2: Douglas Lake 3: Old Hickory Lake (Fished this one too) 4: Watts Bar 5: Pickwick 6: Reelfoot (Think very shallow) 7: Nickajack Lake 8: Center Hill Lake 9: Dale Hollow Lake 10: Tellico Lake 11: Tims Ford Lake Of the above lakes, numbers 1, 2, 8, and 9 would be my choices for another Tennessee location. Kentucky/Barkley lakes would be a more centralize location for almost everyone and maybe we can even get some of the Westerners to think about joining. April is always a pretty good month, as is May. I'm free for anything next year. "RGarri7470" wrote in message ... Any plans set yet? Dates and lake? Ronnie http://fishing.about.com Lake Barkley,Lake Barkley.....sounds good to me!!!!!!!! -Justin |
