Missouri’s trappers rendezvous

MTA is having there rendezvous this coming weekend 18th-20th hope to see a good crowd there

If one of the moderators would stick this to the top that would be great

I'll be there

Well wheelers I hope we run into each other so I can introduce myself

If I ain't hauling corn to town for a farmer I'll be there mike. Talking like he is going to start this week.

Yea there are some big guys around here chompin at the bit time get started. Hope you can make it, should be a good time. I’d like to introduce myself it’s nice to put a face with a name

Sure disappointed that I won’t be able to make it. Since I got into trapping, the conventions and get-togethers have been the highlights of my year. It’s like missing a family reunion.

Hope there’s a good crowd and everyone has a great time! I’ll sure miss seeing you guys.

Where you going to be cliff

I’ll be at home. My wife’s health hasn’t been good.

I gotcha tell her to get to feeling better

The 1pm demo on Saturday that I was scheduled to do on otter has been changed.
Robert Waddell will be doing a demo on coyotes at that time slot.

I was hoping Robert would be there I had chatted with him a few times durring his quest. Would like to shake his hand. Will you be there clay?

Yes sir I will.

10-4, while I’m shaking hands I’d like to shake yours and introduce myself

Will miss all you MO boys and girls. Always a great bunch! Have a great convention.

Blessings,
Mark

Will miss talking with you and Mrs. Donna, looks like your buddy RJ is on the demo list, it will be a good time chatting with him.

Going Friday morning planned on making a weekend of it but my oldest sister passed. Only my second convention, went to National last year in Springfield.

Farm hunt sorry to hear about your sister. Hope your able to catch some demos and get some supplies bought. Maybe we will run into each other there

Well had plans now the wife has the rona, so guess I'm stuck at home

That’s too bad Salem, hope she’s doin alright.

She is fine. My step mom has it so for Alicia to go back to work, she had to have a negative test. Well she went and got swabbed, thinking she was good. Has no symptoms.. came back positive! So I went today and had to get swabbed work made me my results come back tomorrow. I've been sick around a week and half now went to Dr. They said sinus infection due to my history. So I'm sure I have had it and will test positive. But I'm on the back end feeling 10 better even though it was never horrible to begin with

Well I’m glad she’s feeling well, a 2 week paid vacation from work wouldn’t be all bad!

It's not full pay,. I get 67 percent of my pay and have to make up the rest of my time with vacation time, so I'm hoping I get back soon! I don't want to waste my time for trapping.. Alicia is salary she gets paid being there or not!

Sending some money with a buddy to support some guys there though

Good on you Salem we just made it to our hotel room

Looking for some Bridgers dogless #2 let me know if you see any

10-4 I’ll keep my eyes peeled

Thank you sir

Only got to stay for an hour, nothing like a trapping get together. Walk in the door and the wonderful smell of rotten meat and skunk. I picked up 3 new lures a few old favorites, some brackets for 110's and some misc. supplies. Wished I could have stayed for demos. but family first.

Farmnhunt glad you got to show up for a bit.

We watched a couple demos and have a couple more on my list to watch today. Was nice talking with some people I knew and meeting some new people. My wife is now a member thanks to the generosity of a gentleman who sat down and chatted with us a while. We plan to stick around for the auction tonight and see what that’s all about

Glad to hear you got to pick up a few items Farmnhunt.

Good to hear you’re getting some demo’s in Michael. Nice to hear of the generosity and your wife becoming a member too. Trappers are a great bunch of folks in my experience.

The weather has been good, so hopefully that helps with attendance and sales.

Buddy spent all my money lol! But I have goodies coming to me!!!!

Getting ready to head back there after we eat. Got a couple demos I wanna watch and do some bsing. Plan to stay for the auction tonight, and the meeting I’ve never been to either before. Wish you guys would have been able to attend

Me too stupid rona!

I want to thank all who made the 2020 MTA Rendezvous a mighty successful convention!!
Kelly Turner, you did it brother!! Kelly worked his tail off as the District 6 director on this rondy. Great job Kelly.
And it was a successful convention. Good crowds, lots of campers, happy vendors, and awesome weather. The fundraiser auction was the best we have had monetarily in many years. It was for sure the most fun that we have had at the auction in many years! Lots of laughs any money spent for a good cause.
Thanks to all who attended.
Next year we will be in District 2 at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds in Montgomery City.
Clay Creech
MTA President

It was a great time.

Nice convention. Missouri did an awesome job.

Good to hear that the rendezvous was a success!

Good to hear it was a good one, would have liked to have gone, but too much to do.

Was nice meeting you Clay, glad to see the auction made some good money. I had a great time and look forward to many more conventions.

Lee I missed chatting with you and had hoped to take another death ray off your hands, hopefully I’ll see you around at a convention next year

It was a good convention and met some really good people. Thanks for inviting me

Dang Mitchell, if I'd have known you were gonna be there......

Mitchell gave an awesome demo

Elizabeth and I at Appleroadlures.com would like to thank all whose efforts made for a great convention....also we thank all who came by our booth to visit and purchase our products. Have a safe and prosperous season......Cletis and Elizabeth

Did he touch on parachute trapping, MM?

Lee, the only person I saw there who was in need of a parachute was Hemseth. He needed it to keep from falling. Of course it was 1am.....around a campfire......and there might have been barley pop involved......

I'm sure there was, Clay! His hand is shaped just right to hold them cans! lol. The parchute thing is a joke between Michael and me....I'll tell you about it sometime around one of those campfires!

Lol his demo wasn't quite that good Lee!

Lee, I wish you had been there. Always good to see you.
