A delicious dinner...

All players and parents are welcome to attend our fishing trip to Lake Taneycomo Nov. 20.

We will meet in the Grant Street parking lot at 11 AM and leave by 11:15 AM. Participants are encouraged to carpool; there will not be a bus. We should be on the water from 12:30-3:30 PM and return home by 4:30 PM or so.

I am pleased to announce that Lilley’s Landing Resort in Branson has very generously offered us use of their dock and three or four pontoon boats for our outing! We are asked only to cover the cost of fuel for the boats. They operate a full-service fly and tackle shop, so you will be able to purchase your license and tackle there when we arrive.

Here is a checklist of reminders to do before the trip:

• Obtain a valid Missouri state fishing license.
• Purchase appropriate bait and tackle. Night crawlers and Power Bait are good choices for bait fishermen. Small treble hooks with springs around the shanks are good for Power Bait.
• Bring money and food.
• Dress appropriately. It likely will be chilly.

Tight lines,

Nurnberg
