Our 2nd annual Summer picnic:
The picnic shelter at Glenwood forest preserve will again be the location for our now annual summer picnic.Our own chef Spiz is planning a surprise main course and we will all bring along something to add for a pot luck picnic feast.Our pot luck picnic feast from last year will be hard to surpass but I believe we can do it this year.
The festivities will begin at 10:00am and those that wish to fish the Fox before hand can show up earlier.

I like the non slip mono loop knot too. Since my spinal operation,I don't have full feeling in my fingers and this trick really speeds up tying a knot for me.
I tested the knot strength and it held very well.
I realized that it was a clinch knot.Now I have to try it for the non slip mono loop which I do prefer.
Sorry to hear about your misfortunes [plural]. As said above the gear can be replaced,you cannot.
A big thank you for reminding everyone just how quickly things can go bad on the water. Never take water for granted,any water.
Many moons ago I was a boy scout. I still live by the boy scout motto "be prepared". I cannot comprehend waiting untill there is a flood to worry about whether or not I have what I need.
It never fails to amaze me when people run to a hardware store to buy a snow shovel during a snow storm.DUH this is Chicago,it WILL snow.
Be Prepared
