Phoenix KY Lake Rally

[EAnderson]

GZ One, can you take that on for me please?

If someone wants to get the date finalized and get fliers made up I'll be glad to get some to Fate Sanders as I live 5 minutes from there and not far from Nashville marine either.

Just let us know date and info and I will let Eddie and David know at Nashville marine as well and Hoppy also. Jeremy walker as well he will help spread the word.

My wife and I are interested in joining in on this gathering as well. Will have to wait for a date to determine if we can make it. It looks to be about an 11 hour drive but would enjoy meeting other Phoenix owners and fish a new lake for us. Also I would hope the falls colors would be in full force this time of year making for a pleasant drive.

There maybe several from around Lake Fork headed that way, we can convoy up. I go every year for the Paralyzed Vet. Tourn, Takes about 10 hours from Fork

That's a great idea. We would be starting from Coldspring on lake Livingston and headed towards Texarkana. Google maps says it is about an 11 hour trip for us not counting any stops.

Good people at acs marine. Bought my 921 from them. I've been looking for a excuse to visit them , so I'm in. Most dates work for me

[Bshaner]

Ok so narrowing down options for dates. I'm thinking Fri/Sat so that people can travel home Sat night or Sunday. Make sense?

So here's where I need max input people! I need to know 3 things from you:

1) Fri/Sat or Sat/Sun preference
2) Which weekend preferred Sept 20th, 27th, Oct 4, 11 or 18.
3) Given the dates available are you planning on coming? I would really like to get an idea of numbers as soon as possible so if you give me no other input other than "I'll be there", I can work with that.

PM's are fine so as not to flood the thread. I'll keep a spreadsheet. Again, this will be a majority rules thing. So please don't get upset if final dates aren't what you hoped for.

ACS is my dealer and talk to them everyday fish and hunt with him and his dad and I'm hour away from Paris and 45 mins from Jville let me know what I can do with local bait stores around here with getting fliers out to them or what ever yall need. Pm me or email either way is fine. Thx

Duckett, can you start compiling a short list of safe/nice/bass boat friendly hotels and campgrounds local to Paris? I'm sure there are plenty of them since it's basically the hub for big tournies. As we get dates narrowed down we might want to see about a hotel or two giving us a group discount rate. Thanks!

I'll pick the weekend of the 11th. And if I'm there Saturday I'm going to be staying for Sunday anyways so I'd pick Sat and sunday but understand about guys traveling further than myself. I'm trying to make it a 4 or 5 day trip though so it really doesn't matter to me.

[SAL man]

any dates are good for me, where are we going out of ?

[etskeeter]

I'm good with either a Fri/Sat or Sat/Sun and any of the three dates in October.

[vausoner]

I'm thinking paris. Good middle ground. Esp for you guys coming from the south.

[tophat]

I will be there no matter what date it's on will even have scales and tables for weigh in if needed. I live right down from paris landing and even bought my Phoenix boat from A.C.S. Just let me know what I can do to help.

[tophat]

Oh and guys fish tale lodge is right by A.C.S awesome place to stay. They have boat hoop ups on all rooms and cabins.Fish Tale lodge Buchanan TN. 731-642-7113

Oh and Oct. 4 - 9 is the strike king tourney and that is out of paris landing. So I would not pick that weekend.

[Duckett1420]

Just off real quick there is Fishtale lounge, Dover inn, several in Paris, Paris landing state park. I'll check on the camp grounds I know there is a couple 3 or 4 just don't know the names. And all have boat hook ups and safe

This is good info. And on that topic, do we need a permit for this little tournament get together?

[Bshaner]

Thanks for the sticky!

Have received several pm's. Keep those inputs coming!

[tophat]

Will check today but will need dates when we can.

[Duckett1420]

Nobody around Paris knows anything about this Strike King Tour in Oct. Can anybody give more info on this subject please.
