2011 Bass & Bourbon Weekend at "JJ's Jigs HQ Bunker". An annual event for anglers all over good 'ol Pee-Aye and NY. We have been doing this for 3 years. It started with a cadre of 5 members of the Dirtbag Flyfishing Posse. This year it will be held from Friday July 22 to Monday July 25. Come one day, come all days!!! Come on up to "gasland" central. More frac trucks than you can shake a stick.. or rod at!!
It has now morphed into a large ugly animal!!! All are welcome. We fish the NB Suskie in Bradford County (or if flows are too high or muddy to wade fish) we hit a few bassy warmwater creeks. Yes, we fish all 4 days!! I normally list a tentative schedule of where and when we will be fishing so if you can't make it to the "Bunker" for the morning muster roll call... you can meet us on the stream.
Flyrod NOT necessary... spin/bait anglers are welcome!
We grill 'dogs and burgers, drink beer, and of course sample various brands of bourbon. Last year we had 8 different brands to sample and critique. Usually this grill and sample fest takes place on the evening that most attendees show up. (usually Saturday night). We will be showcasing some lively spirits from Finger Lakes Distillery this year. A rye, a bourbon, and some super secret "Granpappy's Corn Squeezin's". Leave yer keys at the door. That stuff is POTENT!
We dry fly fish the white miller hatch in the evenings as well if it's coming on heavy.... last years start of the hatch was sparse.
So if anyone is around the Towanda area during our B&B weekend... YOU ARE ALL WELCOME! PM me for directions and details. One may crash at my place "the bunker" Plenty of yard to pitch a tent.. (no fishing in my goldfish pond though!!) Plenty of floor space and beds if you wish to crash indoors.
(If you have a pet allergy... I do have a yellow lab dog and a short haired housecat)
I just need to know if your coming so I can buy enough meat for the grill. (We always have plenty of booze.... ALWAYS!)
So grab yer flyrod and a handfull of bassy streamer flies and come on up to the 2011 Bass & Bourbon weekend. It's always a good time.
