2006 Winter NutCase Classic
OK Boys and Girls - IT'S ON!!!

Estimated checkin times - 4:30 a.m to 5:45 a.m. - location TBD
First Session - Safe Light til 10:00.
First Weigh-in and partner pairings for second session - 10:00-10:30
Second Session - 10:30-1:30.
Second weigh-in, awards and Potluck - 1:30 til everybody leaves or they kick us out.
Cost will be $10 per person with all proceeds being donated to a worthy charitable cause. I have one in mind but until I get confirmation that it will be accepted I will not announce it.
There will be no money awarded for this event but there will be the coveted Nut plaques. TopNut, BigNut, OddNut and NumbNut will be awarded. Many thank to EGBass for doing this years trophies.
Remember to bring your PotLuck lunch item to share with all. I will start the festivities off saying that I will be bringing a big pot of chili along with (possibly) some awesome Lasagna. Please remember to bring your favorite beverage of choice.
I will have two 10x10 EZ-Ups that I will be bringing, so if you have one to bring and share it would be appreciated (especially if we have some of that wonderful December weather)
Please send me an email at webmaster@westernbass.com to let me know if you plan to attend. No need to do a formal signup, if you want to fish, show up!! I'd just like to get an idea of all who will be participating. As always, we NEED boaters. Even if you've never been on the pond before, come on up and help take some great people out.
I will update this post and thread as more information becomes available. Please mark the date on your calendars for a fun filled day on the water!!

Since this is a "Dry" event and it might be a little chilly anyone have a coffe pot large enough for everyone. I only have a small one , dang that hurts, but if you haven't noticed I aint afraid to tell the truth!
I found a computer fishing game I will throw in for some of the prizes.

NutCase Classic Tradition
For the last couple of years, at about this time, I've posted a message whining about the fact that we have lost touch with the Tradition of the Winter NutCase Classic; how it all started on a cold and raining day in January on the Delta, and how that's when we got the NutCase name, and we should stick to that tradition, and blah, blah, yada, yada. And I usually get pimp-slap for making the post, and like that. But I decided that this year I would not do that post and I'm not going to. Traditions die (even among hard-core conservative groups). So, I'm not going to do that post this year.
Instead, I'm doing this one. NOW WE DON'T EVEN HAVE THE WINTER NUTCASE CLASSIC IN 'WINTER'????
Just kidding, folks (make sure to read the sig line). I hope to make it up to Folsom and I hope everyone appreciates the effort Gator puts into making these things happen. Thanks Gator.

Did you see Folsom last year?
The delta would have been a better place than Folsom last year for sure and that I'm sure the delta was sketchy, too. The lake was a wreck last New Year's. Basically fishing anywhere in Dec./Jan you gotta be a "nutcase" but I'm sure glad it is in California. Wonder what the Columbia is like in Jan. Brrrrrr. Also, call Supervisor Brack (sounds like brach's candies) with the State Parks at Folsom
Dam Rd. When I worked for the State Parks I thought alcohol permits were available for special events. No glass, they will pour out the beer and write you a ticket for glass. Seriously. No glass at the beach.

Not to mention his host body Gary "GT5Bass" Collins?
Mark - you are a sicker man than I thought.
He should be safe on Folsom though......nowhere that I am aware of where he can spin a hub or whack a levee......so we should be safe.
Just in case, if any of ya see a Evinrude/Everstart wrapped boat on Folsom on Dec. 16, run....run FAR AWAY!!!!

Re: Well Dewayne and Stony
I can for sure say that if I was not having surgery on the 14th I'd be fishing!!!!!!!!!!!! December Folsom is AWESOME!!
To add to that I do believe there was a Hippie and Ddawg sighting at a Shambre event a couple of years back we fished together!!
Dewayne, in all honesty my trim did go out last Xmas (thus I was not at the winter Oroville nutcase) and I was not able to get the boat out of the garage, Mike VW, Philip and Mr. Mayo can vouch for me on that one, and Mr. Greene will vouch for my sighting at a Ranger Owners at Don Pedro two years ago!!
Do I exsist or am I the phantom of the keyboard????
HA HA!!

Re: 2006 Winter NutCase Classic
Weather permitting, a halfway decent day, I will be there. I'm new to all this, have yet to fish in foul weather, but want to give it a try. Just don't want to get rained on and blown away. Never been to Folsom, and if the wind is low, will bring my Stratos 16' with a Yamaha 90. And a big pot of beef stew. Hope to see ya'll there.

Re: 2006 Winter NutCase Classic
Don't think I'll make the poker, I'll be there as a boater.
I'll bring a sheet cake for dessert, and I'll supply the coffee. If someone has a decent size camp coffee pot we can use that would be great, otherwise mine is only a 10 cup.
Let me know if anyones even interested in coffee, if not I won't bother.
