Just back from the Peanut Island site. 20 campgrounds with pad, grill, and hot showers. All may only be booked 3 mos. in advance. Only 2 per household so we need to organize a time to pounce or we won`t have tickets to the fair.

It`ll be June before we know it.

The Sailing Club may have room for rigs `n trailers. I have a friend who lives close by and he knows a few of their pirates.

We must once again set the bar for our Northern Patriots.

Sandy-We have talked about Peanut Island way too long without making it happen. It looks like we have 2 places one that ESD has scouted off the Dunedin Causeway and Peanut Island. I say we make both locations happen. Peanut Island will be the tougher to set-up with reservations, so maybe push it to Oct./Nov.. Input??

If you want to camp at peanut island that will be tough . But there's a lot of first come first serve pavilions all over the island. If one person comes early in the morning and locks one down that might be good enough for a gathering. I know this might not work well for people planning on staying overnight though. There's also a lot of bars with docks all along the intercostal. Maybe we could meet at peanut and do a little cruise. Just a thought .

East for the spring run, West for fall?

Danny,
Let me make a few calls and pound on some doors. Mid/early May would be perfect for the DoDo`s and give us a good chance of not being blown out. Set a time, set a place, and enjoy.

Let`s get organized! Makes no sense to tow cross state as we always have too many boats, and too few fisher folks. Heck, we have too many boats over here. ;)

I will do a poll .......

Re: CSC Florida Gathering 2011 - Need Ideas
 
My only thought is with only 20 spots that could be tough

The required 3 months reservations in advance puts us at June 11th. If Spring/Summer is our time, then at this point, we may need a week to get everyone together and all of us call on Friday 3/18 of next week to reserve our spot when they open at 2pm. I have not been able to find the price per night. There is beach camping on the west side away from the 20 spot campground for those that miss the initial spots. The dates would be 6/17-6/19. Check your calendars. I will try to talk to the park ranger later today.

You can only make reservations up to 90 days out. I.E. you can`t make them a year out so this may work to our benefit.
Called the office and their message says it may be 2 days before a response.

Spoke w/ Bill, my friend by the sailing club. He is getting contacts. I hope to take him fishing Sunday if it ain`t a blowin`. The heck with the poll, lets make this happen!

Onward and Upward,
GFS
