Well....I have changed from pencil to ink on the calendar....I will be there........


That is if I can find my way!!!! LOL.....

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

there should be 10-15 boats is my guess. You can also get halogen work lights at lowes for 10$ each 60 dollars and you would be ready to go. you can also use power strips that way you dont have to wire the whole boat just make sure they stay out of the water.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

That's some good advice right there. Especially about the Indy Boys. Man, those guys can find some fish! And hit em too!!

There's flooded timber towards the island and we almost raced right into it. Another 15-20 seconds and I think we'd have hit. We didn't have a light on the front. Just the nav. light. It was pretty dark that night. No moon. But this weekend the moon will be almost full on saturday-night, so that shouldn't be an issue. Unless it's over-cast.

BTW, as I said, we went north, and we should've did alot better than we did. We all three had a case of C.H.S. (can't-hit-$_it). I don't remember if we saw enough to win it, but we should have been a very close 3rd at least. Saw alot right away on the west-bank straight across from the launch right at dark. Could be different this year, but I'd start there if I were going.

We were pretty excited. That was all our maiden-voyage on that boat. Mark built it in about a week and we never got a chance to check it all out before that night. It rocked tho. And the whole rest of the shoot was awesome. Lots of great people. It sound like it's gonna be even better this year.

But remember the tourney is not until the 19th

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

If we get warm weather there will be fish everywhere. I promise there will be fish on the north end. You should go up there this year bowman.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

I meant this weekend, this year, as opposed to last year's weekend. This weekend will be the half-moon.


I want to Luke, believe me. I think you guys are gonna clean house this year. I think it's gonna be alot more fish this year, and not only because there's more boats (I'm sure there's gonna be).I just got a feeling the planets are gonna align, dogs and cats are gonna lay down together and there's gonna be carp everywhere. I'm expecting there to be close to 2000 taken this year. Hell, if Mark and I were going, I would guarantee it!!

Seriously tho, I just got a feeling.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

I hope you are right I think it will be very close this year. I think that the large number of fan boats will keep the water muddy on the north end and reduce the number it will take to win. I could be wrong but this is what I think

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

We're adding a third shooter. This may help our numbers, then again, it's the deer predator sohe may help us at all. hehheh ;)

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Is he your secret weapon? Im sure you will be dead on with that new bow Christine

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

I hope he's our secret weapon.

I have yet to kill anything with the new bow. I've shot at a couple of pheasants and a couple of fish... but nada hits. (it's a little different than my old bow. Lighter, shorter draw, lighter, different rest, lighter, no glovs, lighter..)

I did take it outyesterday and practice with it. I was drilling every corn cob I shot at. If only we were shooting a corn cob numbers tourney. [&:]

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

"secret" weapon.......hmmm I dunno anything about "secret"......My momma always told me I was "special".....and tried to keep me a secret.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Well, it looks like Bowman and I might make it after all. Since all the fields are lakes now, there's not much I can do. There's just one big problem, we don't have a boat. The next 7 days should be interesting!

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Lawn chair, foam sheeting, duct tape. :D

I'd love to see you guys there. (and beat you both)

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Oh, it is so on...

You guys with your new genny and new outboard and Chris with his new boat.....you guys are gonna HATE getting beat by us! I can't wait.


We can't wait to see everybody.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

We just need something at least 15' long and preferably floats. I wish I could find a junk pontoon boat. I just need the two logs!

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Not a chance Bowman.....There is no way in the world you will beat the CIRFCU. Especially since they will have the "special" secret weapon.......Deer_Predator! :eek:

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

If we make it, we're definetly gonna be in the ugliest boat on the water. I'm tellin ya, it's gonna be especially bad lookin at our boat in the winner's circle, and humiliating too.

We've got alot of work to do to make it by saturday. Mark is gonna handle all things power and I'm gonna try to make the boat sea-worthy, after I spend a day going to get it and bring it home. Gonna be an exciting week. And I still have a 2-day job I have to finish in there too. We better win something!!

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Have we ever been beat by the CIRFCU?

And we surely aren't going to start now, secret weapon or not!

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Boy, sure is a lot of smack going on here. I sounds like you all have forgot that Slim is still going to be there. Even with no motor and just a push pole, could still be a problem. The weather does sound like it is going to cooperate.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

LOL you're right Johnny the smack is flyin'! :D:D

One weekto go and then the BS stops. ;)

All I can tell you is that one on one the CIRFCU has never been beat. [:-](of course when I add a crew, I've been last as often as I've been first. :eek:) :D:D:D

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Oh we know Johnny. And don't forget the Indy Boys.No, we're talkin about 3rd-5th, someplace like that. We just want to beat the CIRFCU and Chris, Jason and Mr. Engstrom. Heck, I don't think we're even thinking about placing. At least I'm not, but you know Mark, always aiming high.

But I'll be right there with him, so yall better look out!

Hey Kendall, I always said you're carrying your team. Look what happened at Wonder Lake. Proof positive. :D

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Well then... Mark was carrying your team. Since Chris, Kendall, Judd...etc., etc...myself beat you. HA!

;)

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Is it $30 a team or person

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

$30 per person ($20 if you're a member of the club).

Chase, is everybody on your team under 18? We allow under 18 to shoot for free if they shoot with a paying adult. If all of your team is under 18 then only one of you will have to pay (or look at it as 10.00 each if there are three of you)

We also have $10 per team entry fee if you want to get into the 'Big Fish' competition.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Well 1 is 19, 1 is 17, and me at 15......well we don't know if the 19year old is going...

Could there be 4 people per boat.. 1 adult and 3 youngers

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Only 3 shooters per boat. If you have four people, you can only have 3 bows on the boat. :)

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

ok....well...we could prolly work out something

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

The news is out. We are all in trouble!! Just got a phone call from Snuffy. He had told me that he could not go out this weekend and he had to do some Honey' do's. Well his honey do's was buying a new boat! Boy, must be nice. I guess he has been saving all those 'big fish' funds. If you just think about all the ones he has won, it is about right. He told me he was giving free rides to all who have supported his 'boat fund'.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

congrats snuffy!! I wont be bringing the new boat. got another boat for parts and am in the process of switching it all over now. hoping to have it going for the north vs south tourney if not will be ready for state. I will be in bill shelbys boat. got it running this week. worst part is sat will be our first time on the water all year.

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Congratulations Snuffy, I guess you'll have that boat broke in pretty good by the time you give out all those rides. ;)

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

Is this supposed to make us think we might have a chance? :eek:

Looking forward to checking out Snuffy's new rig!

RE: Billy Davis Memorial roll call
 

We've got our team name for this tourney.
