I should be able to make it.

Just call me #6... I'm in
-
I vote two rods at the north and three to the south end.I think that the north might be the honey hole for the day especially if the river is flowing a lot. Either way is fine

My father in law worked at the power station in joliet and said that the power plants were a major reason for the river not freezing. He also said that in the summer they are federally regulated to discharge the water at no more than 100 degrees.

That's exactly it bob... you said you had a great time and so did I. To me that's what the classic should be about. If anyone has attended any classics in the past I would assume most of your best memories from the event would be more than just fishing. The venue at Lake storey will for sure be a great time... on and off the bank.
I may be going out on a limb here but I like going fishing to any event where other carpers will gather to shoot the sh#* and have a good time. I never go to any event expecting to win $$$ or any prizes... I go to as bob said " have a great time". Now you throw in camping along with fishing. .. sounds great.
I will help Bill in any way possible to make lake storey a go.
Oh yeah.... I caught some great fish there back in the fall.... so Im sure the lake will offer good fishing for the CCC.

A few more pics from the October 2014 Fall Fish-in at Lake Storey follow. That venue would certainly have my enthusiastic support as the site of CCC 2015! Even with the "draw-down" as pictured here, there is still plenty of water and a plethora of bankspace to accommodate CAG participants. --Frank

I'm in it for lake storey. I think that making the classic into a camping weekend with other carpers on a great producing lake sounds like a great idea. I spent 5 days camping and fishing there last fall and had a blast. I got to see Russ' s 41 pounder and I was shocked. The campground is easy to get to, clean, and it's within a couple of miles from retail and grocery stores. As far as the number 200 anglers bieng thrown out.... that would be great. I think we all know that realistically that number will be less than 75 and lake storey is more than adequate to accommodate that many anglers. I also think that alot people that live in the central part of the US that didn't travel to NY for whatever reason wold be more likely to fish at a more central location.

I was 10th in peg draw larry.... and I assure you 25 was going to be my pick. That's fine there's next fall.

Frank.... I'm not sure how to post a pic on here but I have a plastic pumpkin full of 3M products that can go to whomever catches the smallest fish. The prize has probably over $20 worth of items

Warsaw was slow . I think there were only 6 fish caught. Amos won with 2 fish. The food,venue, and hospitality were great. I caught on cat around 8 pounds. So with that bieng said.... I'm not going home without catching a carp. So I hope the river will fix that.
-
A bit off topic but if anyone is interested I'm fishing on the river at Jefferson tomarrow if anyone wants to fish . I'm in joliet with my gear after fishing in Warsaw.... So I might as well fish in the morning while I'm up here
