Pal & MJ Appreciation...
 

In appreciation of your hard work, the commitment you displayed, and the outstanding job you did in representing the kayak fishing community, and on behalf of the kayak fishing community,

We knight thee Sir Paul and Sir MJ...:notworthy:

Feel better?








How about this...we are starting a fund for the two of you, to be spent however you choose...take your significant other to dinner...buy some jewelry for them...buy Christmas presents for your kids...buy a new reel...whatever you choose to do, it is tax free, spend it how you want.

Clay and I will start this gift...

Tman - $10
Clay - $10 (thank you guys) (Clay typed that...allowance $)

I'm hoping we can set up this fund, I'm sure we'll figure it out...donate as much as you can, as little as you want...does not matter...it is the thought that counts...

Thanks again fellas...:you_rock:

bump.
I am in for at least $50

These guys put a year of their lives into this thing to protect our fishing access. They spent days away from their families to deal with the corrupt and utter crap that this thing turned out to be. I don't want to know how much time they spent at home looking over the binders full of info they were given. Whatever we do will be a nice gesture, but I don't know if we can ever come up with a gift or an amount worthy of their time and effort and headaches.

Tyler sets the bar high, let me make it easier for the next guy to give a little :D I am in for $20

Screw it I am in for $80....I can't let Tyler beat me!:D

Put me down too, I won't say my $$ amount, I don't want to embarrass anyone... (namely me :p)

Whoever it is collecting, paypal might work easiest.

Thanks guys!
 

I'll kick in some thank you money.

Thanks for your work.

Chris Cary

Put me down for $20 each. I'll also offer up my home if we want to throw the boys a party.:cheers1:

Grand idea Chris...unfortunately, I don't know how to do that...

I like Sherm's idea, I'd bring in my gift in $1 bills...gonna make Paul dance for it...:eek:

Any suggestions would be welcomed, but it's gotta cost ya...:sifone:

Or maybe the mods can set it up simpler...$1 to view this post:cheers1:

Why not ask the mods to set up something in the store? and then we can donate

And who said big guys aren't astute...er, smart...:doh:

Grand idea indeed...mods?

Im in. You guys worked your asses off.:you_rock:

Over 300 views...don't even wanna do the math on this one...anybody have any suggestions?

Paul, I know you won't respond to this thread...

Should we, maybe, have a party for you guys at Sherm's house?


:cheers1::sifone::cheers1:







Sorry Sherm...

I'm all for it.:cheers1: :sifone: :cool: Cigars, booze, BBQ.....we could hang out by the Koi pond and firepit and piss and moan about the MLPA process or talk fishing. I would prefer the latter.;)

Sherm thanks for the invite, I guess since I started this, gotta go with what will work...

Koi pond, firepit, BBQ, :sifone:, cervezas, what else can ya ask for?

Question is, how many people can you handle?

MLPA imposed No Fishing in the Koi Pond...:doh:

Guess we will pass something around for donations to be stuffed into...maybe a tackle bag?

And agreed, think the last thing Paul would want to do is talk MLPA...

Let's hammer out a date...hopefully Paul can bring his significant other, she sure put up with this mess too.

(For those that may be unable to attend, an address will be set up to mail in your gifts...)

ROLL CALL!

Screw it I am a scumbag and since you asked the question what else to ask for STRIPPERS PLEASE!!

I'm in.

I can fit 40 to 50 people pretty easily. There is a palapa bar next to the firepit with a tiny sand beach as well. :D Three different levels of deck out back with a good view. It's kind of a party house. I'll take a couple pics to add to the post.

The wife even said it was ok with her to do this. She's a good woman.

Just let me know when you want to put this shindig together. My house is just off the 8 freeway in the Mission Valley area.

Let's do this.


And yes....there is no fishing in the koi pond. Not even with barbless hooks.

You put an MPA in your backyard!! WTF! :p

Thanks for hosting, sounds like a great house for it!

This sounds fun to me! I will cook the fish tacos!

It's not public land so I am ok with MPA's in this case.

Sounds good Matt. Maybe a bunch of us should go hooping the week before and have a lobster and fish taco feast.

Fiesta Date
 

So when should we plan this shindig?

For a Saturday or a Sunday?

What weekends work best for others?

Or should we wait til next year?:doh:

Maybe the 1st of the year would be better. I am out of town next week and for a week mid December. Looking forward to it. I've attached a picture of the pond. I'll get some more of the yard.

Hey guys, who is collecting the money for the party? I'd like to contribute.

Jason

Sounds good, make sure the goldfish haven't been fed, Clay will feed them...and give 'em names.

At the least you have to let Paul do some fishing...:eek:

Jason, we will pass something around for donations at the fiesta, and we will set up an address to mail them as well.

Fish Pond
 

Your going to need alot more Koi than that to feed eveyone!...I got dibs on the gold and white one!

Do you guys still want to do this party? The 1st of the year is over and I'm itching to crank up the BB-Q for this event.

Definitely! What can I bring?

Yeah Man I am in for sure, those dudes deserve some major props for all that they have done for us!!!

Yes.

Let's do it...

How about something in the next couple weeks, not this weekend, but next weekend?

Or 2 weeks after that? Those are the weeks I have Clay, and told him he could fish, er, feed the koi pond...

Let me check the schedule. Maybe the Saturday before the Charger game. I'll get back to you soon.

How about the 16th in the afternoon/evening?

:cheers1::reel:
oooooooooooooooo<' )))><

count me in for the $$ just need who to give it too:luxhello::notworthy::luxhello:

Just heard from our Tribal Leader (Pal)...16th works for him...:luxhello:

Sherm says he can do hot dogs and hamburgers...wtf...all these fishermen?

Maybe everyone can bring a little something for the Q and side dishes, like a potluck, take the burden off Sherm.

Don't expect Paul to do any speaking though...he says we leave him speechless...:eek:

Roll Call!

God Dang! I finally found this post! I'm in and I'll help
with the cooking, and eating, and the girls!

Very cool Yani. Very much looking forward to your cooking. Should be mostly grilling. Send PM for directions. There is also a sticky for this party. Shaping up to be a good time. I was thinking about having the poker table out as well. Poker anyone?
