Central FL Info:
March Average High Temperature: 77ºF Days about 90ºF: 0 Average Low Temperature: 56ºF Days with Lows below Freezing: 4 Average Rainfall Amount: 3.4" Days With Rain: 7 Days with Thunderstorms: 3 Days with Fog: 15 April Average High Temperature: 82ºF Days about 90ºF: 2 Average Low Temperature: 60ºF Days with Lows below Freezing: 0 Average Rainfall Amount: 2.0" Days With Rain: 5 Days with Thunderstorms: 3 Days with Fog: 12 Auburn, AL averages (near Lake Martin) Average Max. Temperature (F) Average Min. Feb 60.8 38.0 Mar 67.1 43.6 Apr 76.0 51.6 May 84.1 59.3 I was checking out Lake Martin and it looks like a sweet lake. Lots of coves and bays, kind of like Dale Hollow. The only downfall is that we were trying to have a early spring reunion. We would have to wait until about May up there for the temps we can get in March down here. The problem with waiting until April is, depending on the weather of course, that a lot of the die hards will have their boats in the water already up north. ( I seem to remember hearing about people going on ice breaking missions ). We wanted to give a mid winter break to the guys up north and a chance to get a weekend "fix". I also understand what you say about the weather being inconsistent, but I like the chances based on historical highs and lows |

Greg; I am all for March or Febuary in Florida. Last year we had a great trip on the St. John's the weekend Reid and his posse were down for Daytona. First time we met AdamT and his pretty pink boat. There is pictures and a thread on here somewhere but I don't know where. We gotta get with azues and do some scouting around.

I'm bumping this just to see if this party is still in the minds of our Southerns buddies to put together next Spring. It may be to early to still plan this out, but hell, summer is just about over up hear and the winterization, boat storage planning would go easier knowing we might have to get to the boats with snow still on the ground.... Look forward to hearing of the possibilities.. Moj' |

I too would love to be able to attend- just reading about the great time and fellowship at the GL reunions has my interest. I too would plan to bring one of my CC's (depending how the old girl is running)

FL late March or early April works best for me. Can not get boat out of storage till sometime early to mid March. Those of us bringing boats from the North might want to winterize for the haul, for I have heard of blocks freezing during the drive while returning from a Spring break.
This is about the time of year when we try to visit in-laws in Ft Myers. A FL get together would be a welcome addition. |

I think it is still in the plans. I have been meaning to go check out a campground/lake, but something always seems to come up. We still have roughly 6 months to plan, but definitely count on pulling her out of the snow for the trip!

Hey Brad. That would be great. Are you familiar with the lake? Does it have a sandbar or area to congregate? The campground looks like it would work for us, but it is always nice to have a spot on the water to meet up as well.
I will be out of town for the next two weeks, but would love to meet up with you sometime to check it out if you would like. Adam |

Hey Adam, I have never been on that lake but it looks really nice. I see you are in Jax we could make a day trip down to check it out. I can't put my boat in the river here anyway it's still flooded from FAY. Just let me know.

I think I might try to make my first CC reunion, I just restored my grandfather's Fish Nautique and I think it would be fun, might even try a little tubing and skiing. I can't wait to find out when and where, (hopefully it will work with my schedule.)
I am posting a complete rebuild video of the FN in my youtube channel, Gigg566, (Google Gigg566) and it should come up, or (Google Duane and Selena). One of them should work. Let me know what you think, I have a couple more to make and post. Duane |

Google the Lake Minneola Inn.
It is located west of Orlando in Minneola, Fl. Not far from the mouse house either. Not as quaint as Mt Dora but less expensive. It sits on a chain of lakes that have sandy areas to beach which many of you seem to ask about.Plenty of restaurants and if your really bent on shopping Mt Dora is about a 30 min drive by car. |
