Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

  Back in the old days the old mountain men would get together for a rendevous  , Tootie and I were just wondering who would be interested and like to join us in early Sept on Reelfoot Lake in Tennessee  for a Old fashion bluegill rendevouis . This wont be a fishing tournament but just a BBG get together for a good time catching fish, eating good,swapping flies and lies.  Does this not sound like too much fun ! We arn't getting any younger, let us know what you think!   LOFR

CAN'T WAIT TILL THEN LOFR !!!!!!! GLAD TO BE A PART OF THIS EVENT AND LOOK FORWARD TO MEETING ALL OF THE FOLKS AND SHARING STORIES !!!!!

Boyett's also has one of the best restaurants one the lake. Don't forget the resident American Bald Eagles. I don't know if you have seen one in the wild but it makes a fishing trip extra special.

REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO MEETING ALL OF THE BBG MEMBERS!!  LOFR;; TOOTY;; KEITH; KELLY!!  HOPEFULLY;; JIM GRONAW;; TONY LIVINGSTON; AND BRUCE CONDELLO  WILL BE THERE ALSO!!  just think;; this will be the very first meeting of its kind!!  and ;; since BRUCE is responsible; for the bbg site;  would be a great pleasure to meet!    EVERYBODY WELCOME  TO JOIN IN!!!!!

Yup Carl it would be great if Bruce and the rest of the gang showed up , MAN WHAT A HISTORIC EVENT, for this site and the members .....

 I'm going to try and make it. My family and I have attended a function on that weekend for several years in a row now, so it's still uncertain.

I'll have a better idea of what's going on in a few weeks.

OH HOPE YA CAN MAKE IT TONY !!!!!! WOULD LOVE TO MEET EVERYONE ON HERE AT LEAST ONCE......

Gee love to make it but its a 12 hr dr from my house... have fun you guys

HEY RICK IF YA MADE IT HERE YOU COULD GO DOWN WITH ME AND WOULD ONLY TAKE ANOTHER 24 HRS . OF DRIVING AT 30 MILES AN HOUR !!!

HEY RICK;;  ITS JUST A 12 HOUR DRIVE BUDDY!!  YOU COULD EVEN PICK UP BRUCE CONDELLO AND BRING HIM!!  (((  I DONT THINK HIS WIFE WILL LET HIM DRIVE))  LOL!!!!

Don't really know how long of a drive it will be for us but definitely more than 12 hours for sure.

Afraid I won't be contributing much info since I am a greenhorn when compared to you guys but it will definitely be fun fishing someplace new and south where I've always wanted to go.
