I'm marking down the dates. Don't know if I'll make it , but Im gonna try. Never went to a gathering before, but they look fantastic.
That's the weekend of our yearly family trip. I will try to swing by and say hello.

I tried for a couple of years to make a gathering but something always came up. Last year my wife, my fishing buddy and myself were able to make the Toledo Bend gathering and it did not disappoint! Everybody was so nice and it was really good to meet people face to face that I'd only talked to across a computer screen.
My buddy Marshall aka "sweat towel" joined crappie.com after that and he don't even know how to use a computer or his phone to do much more than talk on, but he loves fishing and talking about fishing so he fit right in.
We made it to the Darbonne gathering this fall and meet a bunch more members for the 1st time, and it definitely had a family reunion feel to the whole event. Looking forward to next fall!
I don't plan to ever miss another gathering and I can't wait till May to roll around to see everybody again. If anybody is thinking about going I say do it... you won't regret it! Good times for sure.
Does anybody have plans on doing a Saline/ Larto gathering this spring or anytime coming up, we'd like to go to that one!

Tried it for years but after only having 2, at max 3 members show up, I gave up! It use to be really big before the Darbonne gatherings took place. Please do not take this as a blast against Darbonne because I LOVE THEIR GATHERINGS! Wife went with me this year to it and had a blast! Just wish we could have a big one at Larto too.

Yeah, I saw how much fun y'all had at Darbonne and I believe Angie won some really nice stuff also! I understand about not wanting to plan a big deal for Larto but if you get a wild hair or change your mind about Larto I know me and Marshall would go for sure... just saying haha!

I just reserved cabin #3 Thursday to Sunday. Couldn’t stand the thought of missing this gathering again. I still have a schedule conflict as mentioned in an earlier post, so I might not get to fish on Saturday.
