Ed Buric Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 February 20 (Wednesday) at 7 PM. “Tie & Thai” event. ISA fly fishing aficionado and restaurateur Tom Loo will host our February meeting at Thai Garden, 225 West Golf Road in Schaumburg. This will be a great opportunity to try some of Tom’s Thai cuisine and chat about fishing. A great opportunity for some of our north side members to attend! Tom has agreed to donate some of his flies and Tim Urbanowicz has agreed to donate some of his "Eric Baits" as raffle prizes. So besides great Thai food, fantastic raffle prizes and just an enjoyable evening with fellow smallmouth fishermen, how can it get any better? See you there.

ronk Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 No better opportunity to learn about Thai food.It'll be worth my driving up from P'field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim A Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Wait, it's called "Thai and Tie," but I haven't read anything that suggests there will be fly-tying. So is this a misnomer? Are we just talking about reinforcing our social ties to each other? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Buric Posted February 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 Thai and Tie was only intended to be a play on words and yes this is all about the social ties of smallmouth fishermen and women. Ties are not required Ed Buric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Kral Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 I think I can actually make it, usually my work schedule does not agree with these events. So, let me get this straight, we are, or are NOT tying flies? Just so I know if I need to bring my stuff. Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Buric Posted February 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 We are not tying flies! This is purely a social event. Ed Buric I look forward to meeting you Ryan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKollmann Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Sorry . . . but turns out following my wife's shoulder surgery yesterday, she needs me to provide catering service. That said, I regret that I cannot attend this evening's event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim A Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 We are not tying flies! This is purely a social event. There is nothing antithetical about tying flies and a social event But I hear ya, leave the craft supplies at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Buric Posted February 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 WOW! did we thai one on last night.Last night's meeting far surpassed my wildest expectations.22 members turned out on a week night in February for what turned out to be a very enjoyable evening. Tom Loo was beyond gracious to us.Our tables were well stocked with delicious appetizers and soft drinks.Even my ever present coffee cup was kept full by his efficient waitstaff.I have not had Thai food before and I was very well pleased with everything that I had to eat. The camaradie among everyone there was just great.There was a great deal of fishing talk going on with plans for fishing get togethers this year being made.We finished off the evening with a very successful raffle with some really nice prizes being won.At the end of the evening the consensus was that we have to do this again and we will. My personal thanks to everyone that contributed to the success of last night's meeting in particular to Tom Loo. Ed Buric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
