Speaking of Michigan ...

what? we weren’t? we are now!! :rolleyes:

The numbers signed up for the Fish-In are terribly low. Does that mean people are planning on going but have not yet signed up? Or, people aren’t planning on going? Usually, by now, we have a considerable list of attendees. Is the 50th anniversary of Trouts Unlimited going to hold some people out? The fact that Fat Bill and Kaboom aren’t fixing their unbelievably, incredible meal for us?:rolleyes: <yah, I know! I was wavering on this one!!! but there are other eateries there… not as good, but there are others!>
So, who’s going?

I am! I have a new Tadpole that needs baptized in the holy waters.

So far I am in

Can’t commit just yet. We have a daughter to marry off on 7-25, and there’s lots to do beforehand. (I know that I’m preaching to the choir)

I hope to be there for a couple of days, but it’s just too iffy right now.

Is there a “sign-up” somewhere?

My lovely wife and I will be there… though I was looking forward to Fat Bill and Kaboom’s fixin’s. Had reservations for a month or so now. Have arranged to have step-daughter looked after by her grandparents.

Only thing I need to do is tie some flies (what flies is still open as I’ve never fly fished in MI nor fished the Au Sable), and pack some clothes. Its a bit early to do that latter.

Cheers!

Sorry Gang, I’ve got to drop out. I won’t be able to get away from work this year. I had planned for it and saved PTO, but it just isn’t going to happen. For months the happy thoughts of Mio, Dam 4 and the Bread Pool have provided a major bulwark in maintaining my sanity. Now I’ve got to think about next year. I hope that y’all have a great time.

Joey,
My Maggie is gettin’ married 7/25 too…I can’t believe you & I haven’t discussed that. The trip down that aisle is gonna seem like “the longest mile” to this ol’ guy. Hope the eyes stay dry until I sit down!
Needless to say, I won’t be at the Fish-In…way too much to do.
Mike

Miss Betty,

What’s up with your statement! You’re talking about those who haven’t put their name on the list, and YOURS isn’t on there either! We sure hope you and Carey will be joining us again this year. I noticed Deb hasn’t signed up yet either.

I haven’t posted or done much for the past two months due to some health issues, but things are finally straightening out. I hope to soon have some info for eating for the 4th.
