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

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.

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.
