Salmonhead will be there late late friday night, like midnight or thereabout. I have Brant (cityfish) and Greg (t3pt6k) on board. I have room for 1-3 anglers if need be. Verdict looks like he can't make it and Flatrate had to bail also due to prior commitment. I would like 4-6 people on board.
Will be departing TBM at 5 am or much later, like 7 am or whenever we get up and moving, fishing and having a fantastic time, returning to port with a full box of walleye and likely a buzz, and a sore stomach from laughing.

I will be coming down Saturday morning early to fish with Seacatmich.
Without re-reading the entire thread, I think the dock departure is no earlier than 5 am. Tacklemaster will correct me if I'm wrong here, but I believe the charters usually leave the docks around 7 am for morning trips.
Unlike salmon, you don't need to be out with lines in the water before sunrise. Erie 'eyes will bite throughout the day, some days better than others.
All that said, I believe LD & crew will leave the docks around 6:30 to 7:30. Coffee required, donuts optional.
Roy, check with Ryan and see what time he's planning to leave the docks.

It is looking great guys. I just got word from another fisher, Bob Weis, that he will be towing up from KY his 25 ft trophy for the festivities too. He'll be bringing his son Rob and another crewman.
It's shaping up to be a great get-together!!

Anyone who would like to donate fish for the fish fry on Saturday is more than welcome to do so. I've got about 5# in the refrigerator at home thawing for the weekend, but could add a bit more if necessary.
Talked to the Cheeseheads this morning..they were rolling through Chicago...ETA sometime early this afternoon.
See you all very soon. Drive safe...

I'll be cleaning fish for a dollar a fish. I'll clean and bag then and haul guts to the pit for that. I don't have a trip on Saturday so I can clean fish all day.

As long as Tacklemaster puts us on some fish we will have a bunch for the fish fry. The guys that don't normally catch them won't have to donate much. I will have Good humor Ice cream treats to donate. I could not get my boss to donate a Rolls or Bentley as a door prize. He did offer a Hyundai but I declined.
