Tommy, just to let you know. Next clean up Chris and I will not be able to make it. We have a Dry Tortugas trip during that weekend.
The Judge asked the prostitute, "At what point did you realize you were raped?"
The prostitute replied (wiping away tears), "When the check bounced."

Well it was very nice to see some Faces I have not seen in a while.

Great Seeing
Fishaddict aka Wendal-----John aka Green tide---- Rick aka Baitfish, Thanks for Backing up the BF Forum with the last clean up and another this month back to back, Rare aka Nelson -- Sterilized "lol" aka Ron How was channel 5 ?? Cowboy Justin and Jason who is not a member" hope you will become a member" but came and helped out it was most appreciated :toast: and it was very good talking with all of you.

I myself think we really need to plan one month around a clean up and hope that 20 or more show with the intentions of all of us fishing together at different points through a 24 hour period, we could set two camps on different bridges and trolley us all back and forth so the best currents could be fished on two bridges, it would be a great time and from all I have meet on these clean ups I am sure we would all share a lot of Laughs and maybe some great catches.

Anyways just an idea that I thought of walking down the bridge.

Heres a picture of Us "all eight of us" next to the sites new sign on the ends of the bridge, we were a small group but we got it done really quick and we did it very well I must say. Thank you again everyone

It was awesome meeting all you guys I hadn't met before and seeing those again that I had met before! Everyone did a great job getting the work done quickly and the bridge is a much cleaner place for us doing it. It's just amazing how many people just don't give a sh!t how messy they leave a place when they are done using it!!

I went back out and fished for a few hours after we were done cleaning the bridge. For bait, there were tons of small dines and pilchards, so I decided to catch a bunch of those and see if there were any snapper around. Put the first one out live on an the outgoing tide and let it go out under the main road (traffic) bridge....bammmmm! got nailed by a little jack...about 3 lbs! So I changed my set up a bit and put another one on and tossed it as far in under the traffic bridge as I could by one of the far side pilings. In no more than 15 seconds, it got nailed by a little grover. Every time I would toss one in there it would get nailed. After catching about 5 or so shorts, I finally got a keeper at 12". When it was all said and done, I ended up with 3 keepers (12" to 14") out of about 20 or so catches.

All in all, a fun day!! Thanks again guys!!

Good job guys, sorry I couldn't be there.

Tommy, you are killing me with the dates...the next one is scheduled on the UM-Ohio State football game, I'm going to try and make it down before the game but I can't guarantee it.
