Put this on your calendar - Sept 11-12 September 2009 at Island Cove Marina www.islandcove.com (actually in Hixon, TN)  If you're looking for additional fun for the family - I HIGHLY recommend the http://www.tnaqua.org/ Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga. It's been a few years since the wife and I went (would have been more fun with kids, nieces or nephews).  Check them out on the web site link I posted.  Let me know who's interested so I can get an idea of a head count. If you call them mention that you're a member of PontoonStuff.com and give your forum user ID.

If you're interested in scheduling meetings in your vicinity, then by all means find a location and get as much info you can for others to make an informed decision and start a post like I did for your area.

Very warm usually, could be anywhere from high 90's to high 70's, you just about can't tell from year to year what it'll be.

Only thing is.....this puts some pressure on my to get the boat 'up to snuff'.  You guys have really put some work and thought into yours. 

I honestly have never heard of this lake.  Could be that my ex in-laws live near there and I have tried to forget that that corner of Tennessee exists!!!!!!

Hey pontoon people, cuzzx here.

Charles, that is my May stomping grounds for May bream fishing.

The area is just down right beautiul, with small mountians on both sides of the river in places.

Have a few pictures that if I can find I'll post.

Told my wife about this and she said that she will check to see if she can get off at that time.

Also they are small motels in the very close area.

We always stay in Jasper at the Acuff Motel. They are very good to boaters. About 5 miles away with a very good eating joint in the yard.

If anyone is coming, how would you like to have a traditional crawfish bowl, with onions, potatoes, corn (seasoned we can do mild or really cajun to suit anyone palet) and/or jambalaya. If you've never tried it, you'll be in for a treat. kartracer28 (from Houma, LA) is fixing up the jambalaya and we'll together do the crawfish boil (bring newspapers ) it won't be for reading, it'll be to serve up the boiled crawfish, and fixins.
