  It's Not About the Fishin' !

This Journal is way late - so you better already be       scheduled for the 30th !


  • Stay for the "Wide Open"  on Tuesday!
  • Dates: Friday May 30th-Sunday June 8th !
  • Go to the web site for a "color" version of this Fishin' Mission Journal!

On the 29th Annual, Sparky had no idea as to the level of influence he would have over  things to come! (easy boys--I'm speaking only of future events here) It was great that he took on the responsibility for the 29th Annual gift item, and after enlisting several creative agencies, he produced a winning t-shirt design!  I think he sold 45 shirts and had another two dozen on back order--way to go Sparky!
Simply put, his theme was - It's Not About The Fishin' ! I'm not sure Sparky realized at the time what a soothsayer [say that five times fast after five Malibu's] he had become! His prophecy was rivaled only by those of the Mothman!

One only has to read about the Fishin' Derby (page 2) to understand the influence Sparky had on future events!
Good thing It's Not About The Fishin'  because the 29th took the "Fish" out of the Fishin' Mission!
Because of his incredible demonstration of clairvoyance it is rumored that many of the Fishin' Mission attendees are now consulting with Sparky regarding investments--desperately looking for an answer to the question, "what the hell happened to my 401K?"
Everything else about the 29th was fantastic! Read, learn, act………..

See you on the 30th !!
Taking some well deserved R&R over at Rhino's after another tough day in Bridgeport! You can measure the dedication and commitment to fishin' in their eyes! Oooops--It's Not About The Fishin' !

 

Inside this issue:

Great Attendance on the 29th!

The 29th Annual was well-attended, although at this late date, interpreting the myriad of cryptic notes the Commish had stuck to his clipboard makes it difficult to give an accurate accounting!
After a recount, eliminating all the hanging chads, it appears that we had
44 Attendees!

This article will mention all--but only comment on a few:
CR, LTR, and T were heading up from Mammoth--but got side-tracked and were no-shows. OD and Lewd played golf at Mt. Whitney on the way up, and then Lewd drove back home to pick up his grandson Brendan, 

(the first 3rd generation attendee)and drive all the way back up!
Elliot, Rocko, and Greener came in through Death Valley (played a little golf on the way in) with a Motor Home filled with chef's tools!
