Slowhand Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Also you can pre-register at Arnies Bar in Shakopee tonight from 6:30-8:30 pm where you will recieve a control item. A cell phone number will be required if you pre-register. A mass text will be sent out friday night about 6:30pm, at which time you will be given a number code to "activate" your control item that needs to be written on the control item. This notice is 11th hour for some but I hope we get a few of you catters to join. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTro Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Is it 25 per person or party? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowhand Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Its per person Dtro, yea it might be alittle steep but its all donation, and good cause. If you want to give more be my guest. Last years 1st annual raised $800. We have already topped that with our beer bust for the event. We have a number of prizes as well, most if not all should receive some prize. And as far as going out solo that is fine as well as long as you get a decent photo with you and the fish/control item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aanderud Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Man, I would go but my wife is working evening shift and I can't make it. Maybe if the kid hadn't come home sick from daycare today I could take him somewhere but I'm going to be busy as it is.Good luck everyone.

Shack Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I would really think about doing this but I am boatless until next week. I am a sucker when it comes to a good cause, catfishing and prizes. Good luck to all that enter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTro Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 To be honest, I know that John and Brian both need a slumpbuster, and I didn’t want to catch it for them, so I secretly just tossed my line out and pretended to be fishing. I was even nice enough to let them beat me at poker all night. You know I must be in a good mood when I do that, I take my poker seriously. Even in doing that, Brian still had to find out he had a fish on only because we decided to move spots and he was forced to reel in. I mean come on, fishing without bait AND letting you win at poker isn’t enough, now I have to reel it in for you? [\end sarcasm] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMT Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 Shack, there will be a base camp again this year, for those people that do not have a boat or just want to fish from shore with a larger group. It was a awesome time last year at base camp. Not as many fish as those who moved from spot to spot in a boat, but we still caught fish. If you are interested there will be a boat at Shakopee landing that will take people to and from base camp.Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
