December M&G 2013

[Jaspratt]

We will all be huddled under the docks protected from the rain anyway lol. And if your dressed to take a dunk in 40 degree water alittle rain on your shoulders shouldnt bother you

[Sun]

weather does look pretty crappie!

couldn't resist...

Seriously though, the weather could push me out of this one..

Haha good one. So far, it is looking OK for the morning. Rain isn't forecasted to start until mid-afternoon. The winds are also pretty light too.

Looks like I won't be making this one after all...heading to Kiptopeke and Norfolk for the weekend.

The park has cleaned up the ramp and removed all of the rocks. It is a much nicer launch now.

[Sun]

The main kayak launch is a gravel ramp. If you come early enough you can park right next to it and carry your kayak and things a few feet. If not you can use regular wheels.

There is also a concrete (2) ramp but depending on the number of boats launching it may be difficult to use.

Mustafa is right. You can launch from the beach, or from the boat ramp. The last few times I went, I just parked in front of the kayak launch and carried my kayak and gear to the beach area. Here is a pic of the kayak launch from my parked car:


And here's the kayak launch area on the beach:


The beach can look slightly different depending on the tide:

Anyone have an idea of this launch? Do you need to bring your wheels or can you just unload right at the ramp?

The December M&G is next Saturday and we have 14 confirmed attendees with 2 maybes.
The lunch place (Dixie Bones) doesn't take reservations, but I'll call them next week to give them a heads up that a handful of us are coming around 1PM.

Also, I plan to take a recon trip to the Occoquan on Wednesday...I'll report water and fishing conditions.

[Sun]

I'm aiming to (finally) make it to a M&G. Put me down as attending for now.

Marking you down! Glad to have you!

is M&G open to anyone?

Yup, the M&G is open to anyone who's crazy enough to come out in the middle of December to fish on the water. Shall I add you to the list?
