I also had a good time seeing the old and familiar ugly faces and was glad to finally connect faces to old familiar handles. I also want to thank Chad for getting this set up and like Jim I won't remember names. Lucky to remember my own at times, but with more of these gatherings the names will eventually soak in.

I also noticed and recognized the good symmetry at the table and with how well the center section balanced the fishing expertise on the ends with the much needed veracity in the conversations.

Once again it was a good time at Bass Pro putting faces with names, what a good turnout for the old, old retired Chattster! I sure enjoyed talking to a number of you fellow fishers and maybe I learned something( but where were was Big Nate? I need Rock Creek advice) Chadku thanks for putting this together, now if we can just get a spring camp organized that would be alot of fun ( since we have seen most of us aren't too strange) There was talk about getting a bunch of us Ks. guys to go down and fish Truman this winter so lets do it, that lake is something else, can't wait ! Good fishing "Bros". Doug

Good times fellas. Congrats to Chatt (the sucker is out catchin em right now with ksfish and frazee.) Good to see you all again and some that I have not met either.

Slabby Joe - Big Nate was sick with the flu....we should have chatted about Rock. Nate has told me all the places he fishes. But for some reason I just never catch as many as he does Maybe he memory or places happens to float me off to different areas So I could have atleast told you where not to fish

Any way yes in the next week or so I am gonna post for a summer crappie camp and the dates will be final, so you better work around your schedules to make it. None of this pick from 4 dates stuff and never having it like last year. I think if we do it far enough in advance and set the date now we can make it happen. If you have ideas on where or when send me a PM. Right now I am leaning towards Melvern/Pomona since there are good cabins and campgrounds. Toronto is only an hour from there too if we get antsy. July is what I am thinking. Spring just makes it tough when you never know when its gonna rain cats and dogs for 3 days.

I will leave Truman up to Purple Crappie. He is the expert now with have going with bwilluab.

Thanks Chadku for setting up the retirement party/B&B. Ksfish99 (Bob) thanks for the sharing the video on the Chatt/Toronto. CRAPPIE beware, the man is now a full time hunter. Good luck Chatt, I am sure you will enjoy your retirement.

:DGreat times last night. I agree that mid-summer would be the best time to have camp. The weather and lake levels are USUALLY stable during that stretch of summer plus it be tree dipping time! :D

[slab trackin]

Yea same here, congrats to Chatt on his retirement. As a newbie, I want to thank all the guys that were helpful and generous with their conversation. Great bunch of guys and had a goods time.
