The purpose of the January 14th Meet and Greet is to establish locations and hosts for all future Snaggedline Meet and Greets for 2017. It is also a way to get out and talk and mingle about fishing during the cold winter months and to possibly use the gift cards that you may have received for Christmas.
There have been many hosts over the past few years for the January Meet and Greet, some notables were John (SurfDog), myself (Moc), Mark, Rich, John Veil, and Harry (On The Fly). Thanks to Harry for stepping up and being the host for the January Meet and Greet 2017.
The Meet and Greet would go from 12 noon to 1 pm. Then everyone would meet at Dave and Buster's Pool Hall area for lunch unless another location is decided upon. Please state in this thread if you intend on coming to the Meeting at Bass Pro and to lunch. Once we get a list of Meet and Greet locations from Feb – Dec 2017, then they will be posted on Snaggedline for all to see.
Feel free to recommend any locations that would make for a good Meet and Greet. Please, only recommend places that you would be willing to be a host. Only locations with a host will be recognized by the end of the meeting. If you mention a Meet and Great location and you are not the willing to be the host, it will still be considered as long as we have a volunteer host by the end of the meeting.
The Meet and Greet is a volunteer fishing get together with many kayakers getting together afterwards for a meal to discuss the day. Traditional Meet and Greets occur on the second Saturday of every month. On rare occasions the dates have changed due to bad weather. The host will determine if the date will change due to weather or cancelled it all together. The host usually selects a place that everyone can get together for lunch along with launch and weather information for the are. Remember to exercise good judgement when traveling to and fishing on the water at the Meet and Greet get together. Know your capability, and it is your responsibility to have your required and recommended safety equipment and fishing license.
Snaggedline is a public forum open to all. It charges no fees to users. Meet & Greet attendees do not pay fees to Snaggedline or to the hosts to participate in events organized on the forum. The voluntary nature of the forum and that fact that it is cost-free to users removes event liability from Snaggedline and from Meet & Greet hosts. Participants are reminded that they must always exercise the utmost caution during Meet & Greet outings and that they participate in these events at their own risk.
The Meet and greet is a great time to meet other kayak anglers, and to see other kayaking boats and gear in action.
If you cannot attend the Meet and Greet for January, then feel free to post a Meet and Greet location that you would like to see or attend in this thread and we will add it to the vote on January 14th. So get posting!
