Well spearfishermen and spearfisherwomen

Just keeping you guys in the loop...

I have been in contact with Dixon Lake Resort and Have set the date for the first 2011 GTG on Winni.

We are still working out some of the details for deposits and meals if we dont do a potluck type of thing.

But what I know for sure is that we have pretty much 2 cabins that we can get #6 and #1 So there will be plenty of room for everyone. and a bonus this year kids under 15 years old stay free "WOO HOO"

They had a lot of fun having us there last year and would really enjoy haveing us return this December 16th 17th an 18th.

As the event gets closer I will put up a poll for what we can do about meals and also a sign up sheet to figure out just how many we be bringing I'm hopeing for 20 people this time...

I think in July we will start taking deposits for cabin rental and this is when we will get a list of who's going or at least commiting to it..

I will keep you informed as things unfold for this Event.

I HOPE YOU ALL CAN JOIN US THIS YEAR IN WHAT LOOKS TO BE THE BEST GET TO GATOR YET

If the wifey comes we may need our own cabin.

I will work it out with the resort if it comes to that.

cabin#6 sleeps 10 people for a start

Once we have a deposit we will get a confirmation that that is our cabin and if we need more room we can get cabin #1 but were a ways out to finalize that yet. I told them I would start a gathering of the deposit required for the first cabin in or around July so then we can hopefully get some comitment from a few spearers.

This is gonna be a FANTABULUOS EVENT grin

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
