If anyone from Florida, or general vicinity, wants to hook up in Florida in Feb, keep that in mind. We are still considering locations, last year Central Florida was good. We are checking information about fishing the Keys, the northern keys sound good, but we need further research on areas accessible by kayak. I've been to Marathon and Islemorada and that's a possiblity too. Also under consideration are the Tampa Bay area for snook, that would be fun. Stay tuned as winter sets in, we will be settling on a choice. No need to comment here, I'll have a post later about our plans, but if you have any interest in meeting up in Fl. keep us in mind.

backlash if you are planning on attending back up at least 4 to 6 minths for your surgery that way you should be able to handle bending/ knealing on your knees is a indivual thing i am still not comfrotible enough with that even with a knealing pad and knee pads. just something to keep in mind. but then you have bandit to land the fish

I can't kneel with the implants I have, strickly forbidden. I don't know about the new ones like the Stryker. It certainly makes lipping a bass difficult, but that's what a net is for and I don't have to worry about it in a kayak, you're so close to the water.

I'd be definitely interested in going to Dale again next year. There's no way I could make it to the Potomac, so I'm glad this was brought up.
One thing we might want to look at is Horsehead Resort, instead of Cedar Hill. I have no complaints about Cedar Hill, but on smalljaw.com, where they live and breathe smallie fishing on Dale, they recommend Horsehead over Cedar Hill.....they say its more fisherman friendly. I know this, though.....if we go back to Cedar Hill, I'm not going to take that one right turn past the cabin we were in while I'm towing the boat.....did it once by mistake, and almost didn't make it back out.

No, that road (if you could call it a road) was about 5 feet wide, and wound around through some of the Cedar Hill cabins like a snake. I almost took out 3 mailboxes, a couple of trees, and 1 dog that wasn't paying much attention.

Nofear, get rid of the sandwich avatar. Its making me hungry.
Boogie, right location, but I can't get off in Feb. Man I wish I could, I wanna do a kayak near 10,000 islands and also for peacock bass. For everyone else, definitly interested in Dale Hollow, or Kentucky lake for that matter. Dale might be a little easier for me in a kayak though, kentucky I couldn't hit the main river and I was in my boat.

The creeks at Dale Hollow are definitely kayak friendly and the main lake is not that wide. There are several creeks within a mile of Cedar Hollow and would not be a difficult or long paddle. I'm also certain someone with a boat could haul you out and back to other locations. Man, if someone had a pontoon boat - several kayakers could have a grand time using the pontoon boat as a "mother boat". Now that I think about it, I think Cedar Hollow rents them.

Didn't think Vegas had ever been to Dale Hollow, or that you two communicated so intimately. Now the hate mail begins.

The week of May 12th?
Quote:
Ok, Garey and Anthony, I know that both of you have busy schedules with work and school. The week of May 12 has been mentioned as a possible date for the event. Does this work for you? I also want to mention that I believe the week of may 12th would be the latest we could schedule this event. The following week of the 19th is the week leading up to the busy Memorial Day weekend. Most of us would be heading home during this busy travel weekend. Also cabin rates after May 25 increase dramatically. The resort will start taking bookings for the new year on October 1. I would like to have a date decided by then. Thanks -Mark |

Still working on dates. Possibly some time late April early May (Full Moon; April 26, and May 26). And OFF-SEASON RATES(38% Less) are good up until the Memorial Day Weekend.

Hey Guys, I don't want to intrude on your "Dale Hollow"thread but this is for BassBoogieMan. If you're going to fish for snook on the west coast on your trip to Fl. Be sure to do it south of Sarasota Bay. The fish taste 1,000% better.
Anything north of that gets crap from Tampa Bay. I was born and raised in west central Fl. and, on this one thing, anyway, I know what I'm talking about. Good luck, have fun. |

has anyone looked a site link they have houseboat rentals that sleep 8 to ten poeple. that would solve having to take boats in and out slip rentals and i think if six guys rented one it would be cheaper than cabins. you could moore it anywhere and fish less run time more fishing time. just a thought

I've listed the five houseboat rentals that Cedar Hill offers. http://www.cedarhillresort.com/18x67.html http://www.cedarhillresort.com/super80.html http://www.cedarhillresort.com/deluxe65.html http://www.cedarhillresort.com/classic65.html http://www.cedarhillresort.com/traditional50.html One thing that must be discussed is the logistics of sharing a houseboat with upwards of eight or more people , ie: how do we handle the differing arrival times of members and ect... these potential problems need to be discussed before we decide, ok. -Mark |

I looked at that myself, yesterday. Would be neat to move around the lake all week. I breifly considered it for last May, but didn't want to be the only one out on the lake and everyone else back in the cabins. I don't think it would be cheaper than the cabins, and you would not have the convienience of the resturant. The "sleeps 8 -10" is a bit mis-leading as even the really big boats only have 4 beds and a sleep sofa. A couple have bunkbeds, but a couple are kiddie size at 54".
