Ok, who's going to make it to the LSBA beach party? Some have already let me know, but I need a head count. If you want a T-shirt, I also need your money? Here's some details:

1st Annual LSBA Beach Party

July 13-15th Rockport, TX

Blue Wave Beach-Fishing-SiteSeeing-Fish Dinner-Fellowship

We'll meet at Rockport's Blue Wave Beach Park-This is the only certified Blue Wave Beach in the state of Texas. It's a clean, family friendly beach, and is a great place to catch some rays or cast a net for mullet for free bait.

Fishing - Bring your boat or fish from the pier at the park. Rockport has some great fishing for Redfish and Speckled trout. You can cook it for supper or take it home.

Site Seeing - The chamber of commerce puts out a card with 51 things to do in Rockport. You'll never get them all in one visit, but lots of things to see and do. You can shop till you drop or simply chill (heat up) with other LSBA ers on the beach.

Free Family Fish Fry on Saturday Night - Here's a chance to feed your crew, and it won't cost you a dime. Oh we probably will have a donations jar out there, but we don't care if make a dime. Bring your eager eaters and come on down. If the fisherman bring something in, it may be the freshest fish you'll ever eat, otherwise we're going to H.E.B.

Bowfishing - This is more of fellowship get together than anything else, but you might consider bringing your bowfishing rig (or borrowing one from Tomme) and trying your luck for a trophy mullet. You have a good chance of making the record book and you can enter it in the record book that weekend. There has also been talk of doing some night fishing for flounder on Saturday night after the fish fry. If there is a group that wants to do that, I'll tell you where to go.

For lodging there are state parks for camping up to luxury hotels and houses, but you need to get in a reservation. One option large groups might like would be to share a house. These can be rented from the day to the week.

It should be a fun weekend. Hope to see you there.

T-shirts have to be pre-ordered. To order your FIRST ANNUAL BEACH PARTY T-shirt send $15 along with your shirt size to

Steve - I think you are confusing Bright Eyes and Glazed Eyes!!

I will be down there on Friday, so we can get the party started EARLY!! I hope you are ready Tomme.

Chunky · 06-25-2007, 10:38 PM

I am coming and bring the whole clan. We will be down sometime on Friday late afternoon.

Tomme · 06-26-2007, 10:16 AM

Jonathan is coming and is bringing a new member to sign up.

I've told Jon that he can take out my bay boat, so if you want to go fishing with him, you might want to look him up. The boat is 22' long and has a 200 horse Johnson on it. The good news is that he is a lot more mechanical than I am and doesn't break down in the middle of the bay nearly as often.

I should make it down by............oh wait a minute, I'm already here

. I'll be at the park for a couple of hours Friday night with the LSBA banner to hoist a brew with any early arrivals.

biggen · 06-26-2007, 10:22 AM

Linedawg · 06-26-2007, 03:33 PM

No, I ment brite eyed. You should see the shade of red I can get at 2:00 in the morning! :shock:

I'll be there Friday as well and I've got the cooker warmed up!

Tomme · 07-01-2007, 09:38 PM

There's a big grill smoker at our pavillion, but we need a propane deep fryer or two. Is anyone bringing one?

Linedawg · 07-02-2007, 03:55 PM

I'll have mine there and I believe Brian and Ronnie were bringing theirs. Do we have an estimated head count? We'll need to know about how much beans and stuff to get. A good guess on fish is about a 1/2 to 1lb per person.

Bullrdr82 · 07-02-2007, 04:02 PM

I am going to bring 2 fryers. Can never have too many.

Tomme - You throwing back brews???? I would have never guessed!! 8)

WSentertainment · 07-02-2007, 06:13 PM

I'll be coming with my family (4 of us total).

Also accompanying me will be 3 members of my extended family: Tink Nathan (AfricanBowhunter) and Mickey Maulding (The Royal Shaft) and his wife. So that will be a total of 7 of us.

For those of you who are Bowfishing, I'd like to offer my "filming services" at no cost other than to allow me to film you! I haven't had a chance to film some bowfishing as of yet, and would like to take advantage of this oppertunity if possible.

I'm more than willing to send you a copy of the final cut once it's completed also! Please shoot me an email if you would like to volunteer as a film superstar during the Beach Bash
