[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]Sounds like 3rd time was a charm, Old Coot! Was it all you anticipated?[/size][/font]

I wish I could of had some of that blue ribbon cooking hopefully Old Coot and his crew will have another dinner this summer. I did make it to willard at 5:00 and did some fishing for 4 1/2 hours. I caught 3 walleyes and 3 wipers 1 wiper weighted 3.3 and another weighted 2.9 the walleye were 16"-18". My fishing partner caught 2 wipers and 1 walleye plus lost 2 wipers at the boat. We fished by the feed lot and out by the island.

Even though I could not make it to the dinner I would like to thank Old Coot and his crew for the effort they put into the dinner.

[cool]Yes OLD COOT thanks for a good time!!! And the great food. It was nice to finally put faces to names and to get to know each other more AND FIND OLD FISHING BUDDIES!! Found out about ten years ago I used to fish with HellsAngler69 often and we caught up with old times. Had lots of fun talking to all you guys and hope we can do this kind of thing more often.

Bear Lak Mack!!! Thank you very much for your kindness! The dinner was very delicious! I asked about you and your whereabouts. I was disappointed when you were not there as I wanted to meet you and check out your boat. You are a legend around here! [Smile] Again you have a heart of gold! Thank you!! I hope to see you soon one of those days.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]Somebody should of made out if I couldn't! I'm glad you did. You are most very welcome. Sounds like you put a hurting on the fish. I'm going to TRY and get out tomorrow if I can get a KITCHEN pass. I doubt it. I got studded walls showing and cabinets and appliances showing up next week! Any way I'm glad you got to take part in the festivities! Later...[/size][/font]

Coot,

Thank you again for the wonderful food and all your efforts. I no it was very busy for you and alot of prep work before the event and I do appreciate it. Sorry I could not stay to help clean up, I hope someone did though. It was great to put a face to the screen names and I hope to make some fishing friends to enjoy this great site and sport we have.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2]Yes in deed ....[/size][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2]It was a very good time for all and I am pleased you all enjoyed the food. I know I did! I am very vain person in that I sure do like compliments when people enjoy my Dutch oven cooking.[/size][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2]Here are some pictures I took of the whole shin-dig. I just regret that I didn't get any pictures of Wiperhunter and his group and one main picture I took of a bunch of you at the main table won't upload for some reason. But anyway here they are. I appologize for some names I can't remember or for getting some wrong. In fact, do me a favor and help me with the names here. I was a bit busy with the food and had a hard time commiting names to faces.[/size][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2]Here is Gene Chapell. He is a friend that works with me. I have to tell ya, he and his boy just took his new Gregor 14' 9.9 Merc out for a spin on it's maiden voage. His boy caught the first wiper to cristen the boat. Way to go Gene and son. Also, you might notice that Gene's boy is missing from the picture. He is down at the dock sitting in the boat playing with his new caught fish waiting for dad to finish eating so that they can go back out fishin. That pup is raising his dad well![/size][/font]

FB2 and i would like to extend our heart felt thanks for all the work you and your crew did. The food was great (slightly cajun ....... was the right touch). Those beans, those beans, now there's a recipe I would love to have. Why they propelled me around the cove for hours <big Smile>.

Now we didn't catch any wipers ..... we didn't catch any walleyes ..... heck we didn't even catch any carp! But both FB2 and I lost count on how many cats we caught. FB2 caught his first ever carppie and a nice one at that. So now he can cross it off his list of fish to catch (yeah right he had so much fun catching it I see another trip for them). It was nice to meet you all a special thanks to nomoose and his mrs for their kindness and life saving drinks while we were floating. We still need to plan (replan) a dinner on ice event. Maybe this year we could use some ice shacks as cook houses. <grins> Then the cooks could stay warm and dry and our food would be pipin hot. Just a thought.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2]Oh Road ... you crack me up. I knew those beans were quite taste to eat but only you would know how to put them to better use! L O L !!![/size][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2]Hey, did anyone see "ALAN"? I got a check from him but never seen him there [unsure] or at least I don't think I seen him.[/size][/font]

many thanks to old coot the dinner was superb. I did manage to land one wiper before lunch and lost one at the boat and gut hooked a huge carp. so it was a good day for me at least.

I hope old coot isn't opposed to doing this again, his cooking was excellent and I feel sorry for those that missed out and will be the first to say that they MISSED OUT!!!

thanks again and I'm glad to have met all of you and hope to again someday. DZ
