Hey Guys......I know it is late, but not to late......Tuffy Get-Together.......?

Met with Steve and Zach.....They thought it would be a great idea to try and pull everyone together. There is alot to hash out and discuss, as well as we need to push a few fun buttons for good old 2009.........

There is the opportunity of going back to the Holcombe Florage this late in the game.....With that said, We need some of your responses this week. thoughts?

Hey it would work, I know guys have hunting and stuff going on but I would try and do what I can to make it, maybe the first weekend of October 3, would be cool, I suspect the muskies might be on feeding frenzy? Ahhhh musky filets on the grill in the fall watchng a football game.

Heck I might even watch a Packers and a Badgers game.

I'm out of course for any weekend deal... 20 hours on the road away and no time off...
my 2 cents here... days are wasting... Somebody needs to step up and take charge... start a poll, pick a date, pick a place, and get R done... If anybody wins 1/2 off a new tuffy, I want it...
My tuffy get together starts Sat after work... 4 days at the St. Lawerence river... everybody gone... Can't wait...

Have Tuffy, will travel.

It's running good and after I wash off the Canadian dirt and clean out the fish residue I'd like to do some more fishing, unless it is the weekend of Sept 27th, already have a club outing then. October can be a great time to fish.

Hey guys, give them some room on this. Fiberdome expansion is a huge time committment and the building that used to build the boats and did thousands of them is no more. It will be a brand new building soon. There are good reasons that they cannot get this together this fall.

Denny, I understand the busy expansion at Fiberdome. I'm very happy for Steve and his crew. It sounds more like the response from us Tuffy owners was low and that is why I am disappointed. Not to mention the fact that I wanted to win the certificate this year. Oh well! I'll just have to keep the 06 another year unless some fantastic deal comes along. Hint! Hint!

Everyone,
Look for an announcement over the next couple weeks on the Tuff Team Get Together/Meeting scheduled for this winter. Tuffy ran meetings in the winter for years, and they were always packed; good time, good food, lots of fishing talk, and a chance to look over the 2011 lineup and discuss what we can do better for you.

This year, there's a major contest, with a great prize to be announced; Stainless and Steel...which is which and why do you think so? Details soon.
