I suspect that you would get a better deal at the southfork resort, which is only a stones throw away. since we had no arguements about the 1-2 of june, that is the weekend I will look into first. hope to see ya'all there, I am looking forward to it!

That sounds great witch state park? Looking forward to meeting some crappie members this will be our first group camp-out. I will set the date so we will be there Friday May 31. Keep us posted of any updates. Thanks

the Mark Twain state park is on hwy 107, which is about 8 miles west of perry, on the southwest side of the lake. I too will be there a day or two early.

Man, I feel like an idiot!

Here I am waiting for a thread to pop up on the Missouri Fishing Forum and low and behold.............this one is 4 pages deep! My bad Greg...

Sounds as though you guys have the dates and everything knocked out so I'll just be quiet!

Good point on the Masters, Catman.......are you planning on fishing it?

I know they have electric on most sites and I think they have full hook ups as well. I don't use a camper so I am not sure of that, but I know for sure they have electric, water and a dump station. the roads are paved, there are playgrounds for the kids, walking trails and nice showers and an ok in house boat ramp with a nice cleaning station. and nice big firepits to sit around at night!

AND................... it's not that far of a drive, walk, crawl to mi casa!

No word from the Humphry boys yet, but I'm betting they will be in as well.
