Although you guys didn't see me... I made a top secret appearance last night around 1 or 2 AM. I spent all day working on my brothers boat getting it ready, and I wasn't going to give up. Finally hit the marina at 2 AM and couldn't get the boat to start again. I'm sure my engine cranking and two boys yelling woke up BigDave and who ever other two campers were there. Wayne Saunders also passed by around 2:30 AM before heading to work... again nobody else was awake though. Had some stuff come up this morning, but might swing by there later this afternoon.

For all those who could not make it you missed one heck of a Muster, i say it that way causing it was hot, hot, hot and in spite of the heat and the enviernoment many many fish were caught that we fed everyone many times and gave fish away.The courageous men and woman who braved the weather were ,Don Diego , Fred and Norman , Jimmy Ray, BigDave & Levie.....A million thanks to Crappie Tracker for all the crappie they brought, man that was great.....
Swampgrass and RiverRat wanted to r&R so we ventured out and did not cach a thing while the jugliners of texas were steadily pullling those mudcats in .Jugs a flagging and fish in the box.
Crappie tracker and his bride came in this morning.
Medic 1292 and his bro Carlos came in late last night they had to leave their dog at the emergency room due to heat related stress.
Sorry we missed you al and wayne but we were honking at that time of morning.
1ts pic is me holding the big cat i killed , 2nd is DD holdin gone of his fish, 3 Mr Gibbs holding fish; 4th is Rick and Carlos Rodrigues all the way from San Antonio Tx this young men and their dog came all the way from SA and i really want to thank them , it seemed like more people from out of town showed up than the regulars guess the heat kep you all by the AC.............
Last shot is Jr holding his back while Ct cleans some crappie and Piper poses for the Kodak.

[JonW]

Too bad I'm stuck at work. Glad everyone had a good time and the experience at BJ's was much better than the last!

What are the odds of having another muster there in the fall?

[Gentleben]

Special thanks to my son Dan , his wife Corey; this couple does so much that is not noticed ; we appreciate , they brought the camper over for our out of town guests to sleep in and hauled ice and groceries all weekend , plus they entertained BgBluecat friday night , my son and Mike have alot of the same interests.

To Hamourkiller (Hank Austin) and his family , Hank supplied drinks, ice , fish cooker and lots of stories from the desert land about Osama and his crew and some he could not talk about
Don Diego for all the fish he caught and also he entertained us with his jokes and stuff.

The great T-Bone came down to have his pic made with Captain Albert Lynch
oh yes also brought two bags of fish fillets :agrue: :turn-l:

To Fred Swalleoux who brought and donated a sinker mold for the flagging juggs and caught alot of fish he and Norman workd real hard .

I appologize for the light in in the shower room we will have it repaired by the next muster.

To Medic1292 Rick and Carlos Rodriguez for braving the heat all the way from San Antonio Tx to come and be part of the group. hope your dawg is doing better.They ran into some bad luck with their pet having some heat related problems..We thank you guys for coming down keep an eye on the board believe there is muster brewing for Oct maybe it will be cooler.

CastnBlast was down (flexing his muscles) to eat and entertained the Game Wardens and Lake Patrol with some ineteresting questions. Blake is one of our secret service (bouncer) who throws people in the lake when they misbehave , you all noticed he is always around when i hit the drink??

To Jimmy Ray and Mr Gibbs for being my special guests, I have known JR since the 70's and Mr Gibbs is my daughter in laws daddy so they always have a place in the tri-toon.

Paul Logino (our retired constable and peace keeper) and Sam the deputy man were there for a visit on friday and shared some stories about me and my sinking boats and all the swims i have taken in the lake, the hogs I have not gone to get , what happened to the ham??

But the very most special thanks goes out to BigDave Taylor , his wife Debbie and Levie for sharing his daddy with us .Debbie cooks all this sweets and stuff then she even serves them to us , if this man ever left this website we'd never have another Muster!!
BigDave sets up camp and works from the time he gets there til he leaves , the man is a jewel, no piper not a jew a jewel and we got to be proud that he is our Hospitality Coordinator and Senior Site Admin , why with all the web sites around he could be part of any one of them; they are forever e mailing him and inviting him so they can learn from him on how to attract and keep members coming back................... :smile: ;-)

Thanks to Rivercat and Swampgas(Sam and Sam jr Rain) for coming down
and joining us.

To Crappie Tracker (Morris Taymon ) and his lovely bride(Marie) who came next to the farthest from Katy Tx , bringing some crappie and sharing some stories , added alot of life to the group. Thank s
:turn-l:
Jerrynta the young man what hosts this website , his boy and nephew were there also , Jerry brought this boat and looked for some stumps desperately i don't beleive he found any but did manage drag bottom!!


To BgBluecat , he hurried back from Baltimore just to be a part of this rodeo , caught fish bait and talapia s , his granddaughter is 11 yrs old , can drive a boat, throw a castnet better than any man i know , shot deere and hawgs , mike is training here right,
It was funny we would loose the kids friday night Mike would whistle and she would appear standing there with a coolie in her hand for him!!
I told my grandson Cody (he is 10 yrs old), you need to stay close to that girl , she's the kind of woman every no fish catching man needs, hehehh

And to all the Lake Patrol and Sgt Harding.
The Texas Parks and Wildlife and Captain Albert Lynch , it was a real honor to have all this men in public service to come by and vist for our Q&A session. :multi:

I am disappointed that we could not make it out on Saturday, but we had a great time on friday.

Thank you all for the invite, we look forward to attending the next one!

[dpiper]

The next is at Cagle on Lake Conroe on Oct 7th, 8th & 9th.

http://www.reserveusa.com/jsp/commonpage.jsp?goto=/nrrs/tx/cagl/newindex.html
Piper and I have spots on Sycamore loop.
Each site has a tent pad in addition to the rv pad. My tent pad will be open to who ever wants it as long as we don't exceed the limit.

[dpiper]

Ben, this has got to be the best groups around. Bar none. And the number of new members over the last couple of months is incredible. And its only going to get better. The catfish contest and festival is going to give the site alot of exposure.

Thanks to all the new members for joining. I only hope you'll get as much out of the site as I do. Where else can you get the ins and outs of how to fall in the water. ;-)

Sorry I missed Rivercat and swampgas Friday. I was at American Rodsmith and I felt like a kid in a candy store.

Gilbert, you and your son missed out on some great fried fish. I posted a pic somewhere. I would also like to announce that Elpescador's son has enlisted with the Marines. Thanks, you have my respect.

BigDave, you the man. And thanks for bringing Debbie. See cracks me up.

Dave and Ben you'll did a great job on BJ. The place looked great. Probably could have saved some mowing time if you only had a lawn mower with a zero turn radius. I wonder if they make them. ;-)

Hank it was sure good to finally meet you. Go :usa. I enjoyed meeting your family and it look like your kids had a great time.

Jerry thanks for taking Steven on the jug runs. He's impressed with your boat and how fast it'll go. He said its almost as fast as my pontoon. :turn-l:

Crappie-Tracker nice to meet ya. Those fried crappie were great. Man you bring some crappie experience to the board. Thanks. If you ever take Don Diego, one of our other crappie fisherman, fishing for crappie don't go jugging.

Randy glad you made it out. Sorry I had to leave.

Medic good to meet you and your brother. I know it was a long ride back. Hope you dog is ok.

T-bone, happy you made it. I know you stayed longer than you intended. I sure enjoy talking to ya. Looking forward to our Crappie trip when it cools down some.

Thanks to all the officers who showed up. It was a pleasure.

[Gentleben]

Was tellin a guy at work about ur dawg he said his rot died last year after a trail ride , said he should ah cool ed him down but didn't , poor ole dawg gave up de ghost.

[medic1292]

piper, switch made on 8/27/05, for the trip home. my bro wasn't to upset, he was worried too.

gb, our vet said the only thing that saved our puppy is the fact that we coooled him down several times. that kept his temp.down for a while at least. talked to the vet yesterday, she said he could come home today, as he finally ate somethin. Warden says no more long trips UNLESS, he's inside in the AC! guess i have a new copilot. and thats fine by me! sorry about your freinds loss'. rotty's thems beutiful dogs!
