I think thats a great idea!

The only thing you might need is a permit for an organized event. Your biggest challenge is to gather enough interest from jon boat owners and organize them to do it. I wish I was closer to you, I would love to take part.

Also you have to make sure everyone has a working cooler/livewell......

Many ideas! :D


If you have enough jon boaters in your area and you need a special forum thread (If you don't have a website already), maybe we can create something here on Tinboats to help organize and announce. Just throwing ideas out there. :D
 
IM DOWN!! theres a park , lake park north tampa by van dyke, it sTM only,, huge lake,, an option,, boat ramp, picnic tables, playground for the kids, can be a family event also theres shelters also with Barb q grills in each shelter, great park,,,
i live 2 mins from the park, ill be there 4th july all day.
:D :D :D :D :D
 
So far it looks like 3....any way to get more jon boat owners from that area involved?

Any local tackle shops to throw up a flyer...or local forum to get more people?
 
heres a local shop inman59, grand opening was last saturday,,, https://www.bluewaterfishingsupply.com/
