Hey Gang,

Where has the year gone? My last float was January 7.

Guess it's time to contact Todd at Point Bay and get a permit from Tammy at Vt. Fish & Wildlife.

Saturday November 2 with alternate Sunday 3.

Last year we used the alternate date as the weather was too windy for the Saturday. Everyone was happy with that and we will use that again if necessary. Keep watch on this website for any announcement.

I very much look forward to the Shootout Year 11 and the start of Fall and the hunt for Cold Water salmon and trout. Feel the Pull.....Fish On!

Randy

Got a early OK from Todd at Point Bay.

Yesterday Received our Permit from Tammy at VTFW.

Guess we can say it's Official.....Game On!

Saturday Nov 2 with alternate Sunday Nov 3

Time to perfect that recipe, form your team's and tactics, shake down the boat. Get ready for the start of Frostbite and seeing old and new friends. Spread the word!

Good luck all and look to see some happy fisherman on the podium adding his name for season 11!

P.S. I'm making Ricotta/Venison Meatball Sliders.

Hey Jason! I'm in with 6 lbs of grilled kielbasa from our local smokehouse! Not sure which side of the Lake I'll be headquarters from. The docks at Converse will definitely be easier for Matt. But, get out early, and I'll buy you guys an adult beverage!

Ron do you have my third place entrance from 2014 recorded anywhere? I know your sister has photo evidence of it...maybe it floated down river?
