Here is a link to more info on the boat. I think it will work well for us. It has two live wells and two bait buckets that are in the fresh water there, on two seperate 500 Gallon per hour pumps. Here's the link:

Betty and I will most likely arrive at Kirby Landing Lake Greeson the 12th or 13th of April. As usual we plan to get there a bit early to start getting ready for others to arrive as their schedules permit. I think that we would like to camp at or near to where we were last year. Our plan is to spend in the neighborhood of three weeks there so that folks can come and go as they need to.

Everybody please feel free to call me at 479.243.5450 to visit and talk about jugfest2011.

I have talked to Pete and I think he and Oscar will probably get there a little early also.

It looks like the full moon and baitfish spawn will occour around the 18th of April.

I talked by phone with Allan of the Off Road Camping Club. The off road camping club will be well represented at this year's Jugfest2011 . Most will remember Allan and Chris's great tent trax pulled behind such a sharp Jeep. Their campsite is always a real eye catcher.

Talked with Steve and Tali by Skype Video call last night. She's doing well after surgery and they are expecting a new grandbaby around jugfest time so she may miss it. Steve and a Casita friend from Tupelo will be there though.

Hi Sherry and Paul,

 

Hope everything is going well for you two. We are starting to make plans for the traveling season. I don't know if Larry will see your post. The last time he was on the forum was Thu Nov 10, 2011 @ 11:01 pm. I did talk to him a month or so ago. They were ify about a Jugfest this year, siting lack of interest. Don't know if that's changed. I've talked to a few others, they said they didn't plan to go. We might go if it happens.
