What I would like to know is when are we going to have a big ol, "bibbluegill.com" get together on Richmond Mill lake. I suppose since the web sites membership has grown so much we would have to be limited to one cast each! Lol.... Love to see the pictures of the "toads" that come out of that place, Nice catch!

I think Robbie Everett's 3-5 is the current benchmark, but don't hold me to that...Robbie....do you know any different?
