Best way to meet up with other members? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Just curious how others plan group outtings. Seems as if this forum could really benefit from a separate dedicated forum topic or group calendar specifically for meeting up with others, planning trips, ETC. Would be great to get a few experienced members to host a noob outing every few weeks too!

Honestly the best way is to get out on the water and make friends, most of us on here that fish quite a bit are generally pretty friendly. It helps when you bring some extra beer

. Other than that post up when your going and see if anyone wants to tag along.

"Just curious how others plan group outtings"

Hey Kaleb, come on man...you've been a member since Oct, 2014. Are you a noob, a momma's boy or a couch potato? There have been MANY open invites put out by this motley group since then. One doesn't have to check BWE often to find them either.

HOW has a monthly event WITH a great cause attached to it.
There's something going on at LJ this weekend. Why haven't you responded? "place excuse here..."
I just saw a Barrett Lake earlier this week
I think I put one out a month or so ago...everyone who responded with interest jumped in.
SD Bay
And these invites go up the coast almost year round

You want someone to give you an invite to a wfo 20# plus bite? Probably not going to happen but you can call one of the Pros, they'll connect you for a fee.

Active military? PM me and we'll go catch some fish somewhere, no guarantee! LOL.

I haven't been active the last few months, sold my kayak to help pay bills during my transition from military to my current job I just started. First pay check is. Coming in tomorrow

I do see people post meet ups and when they are going out. I was just saying maybe it would be better if there were one consolidated point for everyone to post meet ups / events/ trips. Such as "fish reports" "Buy sell trade" "General" and "meet ups" Particularly for people who are new to forum, don't know anyone, or how to connect with people . I do know people meet up all the time. Also I was Never was asking for a WO WSB invite.

I'll be back on the water within the month and out as often as I can. Can't wait for it.
