OK, attendees, let's have a vote. How many want a potluck and how many prefer a shore side restaurant? Heresy, I know, but let's get some opinions.

Catmandu - half of the Crabby Lou crew votes for you guys go to a restaurant Friday night and we have the traditional potluck on Saturday! We might just be enticed to go back to Roger's DNR beach a harvest some of those yummy mussels to cook up in wine with tomatoes, garlic, onions and whatever!

Well, that's a pretty compelling vote for tradition, I should think.

Any other opinions before the gavel is dropped?

looks like we will be able to make this gig on saturday and I always like on the dock dinning. Pat are we sure about the clams. I have never done it but would be very willing to devote the day to just that.

OK, potluck it is. Tom's right, dockside dining is the best, anyway. Let's bring what we think folks will like without busting waistlines or budgets.

The C-Dawg crew should be in Langley Friday evening. We're up for a dining out experience that night and the potluck Saturday. We'll be bringing a fruit pizza for the potluck.

Anybody doing any fishing? I'm planning on fishing the reef by Hat Island Saturday morn.

Tom, trust me on the clams and mussels. However, you need to be blindfolded on your way out to the before mentioned area.

I won't be able to attend as I am teaching a two day on-the-water power boating class that week-end. For pay, I might add.

I will miss the clams and mussels however. Oh yeah and the comraderie also.

The only fishing that is open that weekend in that area is lingcod and the tulilup bubble for kings.

C-Dawg · Posted: Mon Jun 08, 2009 2:03 pm Post subject:

Yeah, I was planning on fishing for lings on the reef. Not being familiar with that area I didn't know if fishing the bubble for a couple hours was worth it.

starcrafttom · Posted: Mon Jun 08, 2009 2:45 pm Post subject:

I have never gotten a fish from the bubble so I can't say. There are some ( few) that do well there and others (many) that never hook a fish there. Its a really early before sunrise fishery.

I spoke with harbormaster Rick Brewer, who said C-Dock is reserved for C-Brats. (He didn't call us brats, but I will.)

C-Dock is is the 100-foot dock closest to shore. We'll have both sides of the dock, which includes power and water. It's the widest dock, Rick said, allowing for a dockside party, potluck, orchestral recital, charades or other theatrics delegates might instigate.

If we want a Friday dining spot with a bar and a view, he suggests we call Tim or Jon at the Edgecliff Bar & Grill (360)221-8899. I believe that's the place just above the marina. No promises, but a call would place us in better position to score a few Friday tables. What do you think?

WooHoo,

I just got off the phone with the Admiral and she says we should sign up for this shindig! So I guess we'll be seeing all you brats on Friday. I think we'll call the restaurant and make reservations as well.

Brock, do I still need to email the harbormaster for dock space?

C-Dawg, I might have to follow you out to your lingcod spots. Wink

See you soon!

Bar & grill always works for us.

I will be there Friday and Saturday, if all goes well. Looking forward to seeing you guys and gals again and visiting Langley . Even though I probably won't be around for the potluck on Saturday, I plan on bringing some paper cups, paper plates, soft drinks, and my not quite world famous cucumber salad!

C-dore · Posted: Tue Jun 09, 2009 9:32 pm Post subject: were in
