#4596, "Invitation for Invitational Comments from BNT'ers"
|
The SCBBBC will be meeting this Wednesday, October 3 in Santa Rosa. A big part of our meeting will be planning for the Invitational. Based on John's recent post (thanks, John), it sounds like there may have been some concerns from last year. I think John may have told me what they were, but I can't remember what he may have said. In any event, if some BNT'ers have some specific suggestions that would improve the event or make it go more smoothly, please post or send me an e-mail at anaparsons@earthlink.net.
Thanks. Hope to see you folks on October 20. Since that's my birthday (I'll be turning 29), you guys can bring me lots of presents (money preferred, although expensive fishing gear is OK) and help me win the tournament by putting me on some big fish.

Sounds interesting. I didn't know if they'd have enough parking for all of us. We blasted off & weighed-in there @ last year's TOC, & it was a good spot. One of us will check with them to see if it's OK.

Keeping the launch/weigh-in site at a place that offers some good fishing sounds like a smart idea. I think State Park offers the best alternative. It's still located in the north end, has good fishing and plenty of parking. Next year we can move the camping there as well.

I would prefer to launch from an area where we can fish and not have to run. I am not familiar with Liberty Park or State Park, so for me it is all new water.

I'm sure that there are many BnT people that don't usually run and it's a good guess that Rasta people won't run. It's going to be all new water to a lot of people, so it should be as good as water as possible. And keep it simple to find, launch and close to camping.

I did call Skylark yesterday. I tried to get permission for blast-off & weigh-in, but their manager, Chuck, is out-of-town until Friday, & he's the one I have to speak with. They have no vacancies for the weekend of 10/19-20 - there's some sort of car club rally & the Model A (?) folks are staying at the Skylark. By the way, as of yesterday, Mallard House has one vacancy left for the Invitational weekend.
We'll have to decide at the Wednesday meeting. We might choose to go for Skylark, with either Library or State Parks as backups if we can't get permission. A couple of questions re: State Park - is there a parking fee? I've heard it's $4 but don't know for sure. Also, is there a locked gate & if so, what time is it opened?
