There will probably be extra equipment available for you to borrow. :)

By the way... we are meeting at the launch starting around 5am. My posse' (heh heh) won't be there until about 6am. We go back to the launch around 12-1pm for lunch.

Bring a hat and some polarized glasses.
uh hey were do ya live? because i used to reside in Algonquin. until a year ago. if you are going to be leaving from Carpintersville around 4:30 i coudl meet you somewhere around there before you head up there!

would anyone have a spool i coudl borrow or maybe even an extra bow that i coudl use since i dont have a fishing set up?
i went to Daves Bait but they didnt have any string. i could have bought a spool but thought what good is it if i dont have any string??? :D

thanks again guys

Day,

I'm in the 'Lake Marian' Subdivision in C'ville.

I'll PM you my info.

We are leaving here at 5am, so we will be getting to the launch a bit later than the other guys.

You may want to try and get to the Kankakee River around 5am with the rest of the guys if you can. (that way you can get set up right away) :)

I'm not sure about having an extra bow, but there will be extra spools, line and arrows available.

Good luck AmanitaVerna.... are you bringing your latest yacht you purchased, or the old carp killer rig??


pst guys... I realize this is too late, but before you eat anything she gives you, take a real long hard look at it.... some stuff she calls food is inedible!!!

Hey Rat!

We brought out 'Carp Control'. We used our back-up motor which is a really, really, really old motor. (I hope E.J.D reads this) ;)

I offered to carve up one of the fish for some fresh river sashimi but nobody seemed interested. heh heh heh.

It was a great time. See the 'Get-Together Pics' thread for photos.

Yeah that was one OLD motor, mushroom girl.

And I'm not eating anything we catch as long as Ed keeps bringing those sausages. YUM!!!
Thanks for the warning Sewer Rat.
