CAST IRON LID ??:lighting:

[rddempc]

I'd really be interested in getting boat lane and stump information for GPS, especially anyone that can upload them to computer so I can transfer without having to key waypoints in by hand. I can get to/from a lot of formats if you have them saved on computer. I might be willing to barter some homemade beef jerky.......

[Scotta]

Homemade Jerkey? I got an extra kidney I will barter. Might have some other parts I dont need I will have to check.

[Pawpop]

Get-ur-done C.T. Get-ur-done

hehehe

[NewCaneyFishingLady]

For those of us that need a place to sleep, other than a campground, I am posting this information.

There are several motels in Huntsville, for those coming from the north, west or east, if that is where you choose to stay. Sorry, I only looked in Willis and north Conroe.

Wherever and whenever you are booking a room: Remember to Always ask for their best rate!

To the south of Cagle, Exit 102, are the following:

Conroe-Exit 91-League Line Rd.
1. Comfort Inn; 936-890-2811; $69.26-116.95
2. La Quinta; 936-228-0790; $85-140
3. Supreme Inn and Suites; 936-890-2600; $55.95

Willis-Exit 94-FM 1097
1. Best Western*; 409-856-1906; $57.95-68.95

* I stayed at this Best Western last year and won't do it again. I had taken my laptop and could not get an internet connection (this is the only place I have had this problem, so it isn't my laptop) and I let them know immediately. They couldn't get it working. Plus, their continental breakfast was worth walking past and staying hungry.

This year, I will be staying in Conroe, which has several places to eat at, if I don't like the looks of their continental breakfasts.

[Scotta]

thanks for the heads up NCFL

[NewCaneyFishingLady]

Order of events are as follows:

On Friday, IF we have a pit, we will throw whatever kinds of meat are brought on it http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_1_72.gif and have some sides to feed the fishermen, and the others that are there. It is very casual and there is no set time to eat. After dark, there is usually a campfire http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_2_200v.gif to sit around and visit with one another. I know, right now, no one wants to be around a campfire but it will be nice.

On Saturday, around noon or 1:00, we eat a wonderful catfish lunch http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/26/26_8_14.gif and do more visiting. Then, we clean up everything.

Plus, don't forget, catch fish http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_3_202.gif , clean fish, and catch more fish, clean more fish, before noon Saturday.

[NewCaneyFishingLady]

[NewCaneyFishingLady]

http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_1_201.gif Yeah, thanks a bunch!!

[NewCaneyFishingLady]

Just so everyone knows, the pit stays hot and ready for use for 2-3 days. If it is not hot enough, throw another log on the fire and let's feed the fishermen. Last year, I cooked fajitas at home and warmed them on the pit. Just an idea. Cook it at home or cook it there.

[NewCaneyFishingLady]

There are some nice wooded roads for your bike Gator not to mention excellent Bass, Crappie and catfishing. We could leave a smoker on all weekend and throw food on.
