As we build this site, and cover a myriad of topics from how we got there to “he/she was doing what” ?,  we should introduce our governing body. We would also include our mission statement and goals as we “professionals” have done it, been there, and gotten the tee-shirt.

Mission Statment  (see we already took care of the mission statment, aint got one yet)

This is the chairman of the board and our sys-op Boyd. 

This man is one to watch out for. Boyd can be the quiet one in the  group. One minute he is in the back or middle of the boat just as quiet as can be. We can be fishing on some pond or lake hugging the shore or pitching  jigs or plastic into the weeds….the next minute when your back is turned, Boyd will dig deep in his tackle box, draw out the ugliest, nastiest, biggest “pos” you have ever in your life seen and cast that major monstrosity out in the middle of the freaking lake !!!  Problem is…he usually brings in a hog of a fish !!! Boyd is also one of  the camping masters of the group…(just ask him about his “condo” tent). This man, along with another to be mentioned later, can pack 4-6 plastic totes in his jeep, and be gone for at least 3 weeks, without resupply. Boyd should also be noted as a founding member of meeting room “G”

  

Troy

Here,  Troy is calling to order  MOF’s “Smeltapalooza 2009” Extravaganza. Leading this meeting, as you can see, required the proper tools as noted by the yellow cup. He is also one of the founding members of meeting room “G”.  This man is also a master at setting someone up to get in trouble. We try to keep both eyes on this man at all times.

 

Jimmy

This is a man who owns more gear the LL Bean, Cabelas, and Kittery Trading Post combined. Jimmy also has the patients of a saint. I have seen him cajole, tease, and down right beg a fish out of a hole that no one would even think about fishing! He is also the top MOF chef. Never let it be said that when MOF hits the road, Jimmy aint got a tote/cooler(s) packed.  Dont even think of asking Jimmy if he’s got a spare hot dog….Just sit down and watch the man do steaks over any flame with the greatest of skill. (ask Jimmy about the “rib-off”… the man took us hands down and did’nt even try) Jimmy is another camping master….must have 3-5 totes ready and on hand at all times…..

 

And now Kristen. Another meeting room “G” founder, and probably one of the most sane board of directors of MOF. We have to take a moment to say that if an angel did ever escape heaven, she came down to Maine to be our MOF angel. Kristen can put us to shame almost any day at any given time. I have personally come back to camp and said, “got 3 this afternoon”….to which she reveals she’s already caught 6-8…and “giggled”. Being married to Jimmy does present a problem at this point as, between Jimmy, Boyd, Troy, and myself we have bragged at catching 6-8 bass in a day, and then when confronted by Kristen, she’s got that many by herself.  Jimmy then has to deal with the rest of us busting his chops.

 

And then there is me, Dean. 

I’m the transplant of the group, from the great state of Georgia. (Go Dawgs) I came from bass and cat fishing. Trout were “stocked”. Until recently I did’nt know that you couldnt touch the water with your hands at end of Sebago lake (see the profile posting at the game warden site).  I, being the junior member of meeting room “G”,  get to sit at the outside of the table with the kids and those from “away”.  I will be the “brewmeister” for Smeltapalooza 2010 (no guarentee that the MOF Amber Ale will be up to spec’s)

 

So that tells a bit about us and what we do.
