I have it on good authority that Kaboom1 and ,hopefully, Fat Bill will be arriving in Tullahoma on, or about the 23rd of this month to chase trout on the Duck and Elk Rivers. Warrenp, rons81, Popperfly, EdD and myself will be on tap to show them a great time. (Doublewide will be up on the Watuga beating it to a froth!)
I know a spot on the Duck that should produce enough 'gills, Redears and Black Perch (Rock Bass) for a respectabe fish fry!
The menu may not be as exotic as the last one but I’m sure there will be some steaks on the BBQ!

After attending the Tennessee Fish In 1 I can assure you all that Brad,Fat Bill, Jack and the NBOFF are going to have a blast. Jack is not only a grat host but a fun guy to spend a few days on the Duck and Elk with.
Please note that the TBI now has an entrries in its database for both NBOF and Island Nation of Ohio. Remember that Joe V. and Scubatim have been to town.
When a group a hikers files past a hidden snake, it’s usually the SECOND person past that gets bitten.
Tullahoma Fish-In 2009…The Sequel. Somehow I thought it would take a bit longer to come to this, but I guess it was inevitable. I’ll wait to see the pictures.
Have fun Boyz. I’ll be rootin’ for y’all. Wish I could be there to bake some bread for ya. Here’s a virtual batch of Buttertop Honey Whole Wheatfor you to enjoy.
Joe, that is just not right, how could you tease us like that Now if you would like you could send a couple of them down for the Fish-in, they sure make good sandwiches
Joe & Tim, you know the way down. If you forgot, look for the hefty-but-nimble guy in waders, packing a .44 mag and chasing a surprising quick, if clumsy, guy with an MP3 player blaring “Dueling Banjos”.
Betty my love, it’s more of a snake problem than banjo’s! However I’ve only seen 2 in my hundred’s of trips (Both harmless water snakes) so the outing could be rather dull and the 44 just extra weight. Although the sight of Kaboom1 chasing EdD down the river may be just the thing to help bring JC into his 74th year. I can see it now, EdD making like a ballerina prancing down the river while huge fountians of water erupt around him! :mrgreen:
