Anyone interested in splitting costs for a one day trip to fish Erie Sunday?

Throwing this out to see if anyone would be interested, fishing off Middle Bass island for walleye, get there at dawn, depart about 5 pm.

I have a heated shanty and a 4 wheeler, only thing you'd need is your favorite rod.
The details...we'd be taking my airplane up so you can't be afraid to fly. (Im a 1600 hour commercial pilot)
Important, weight in a small plane is a factor, must weigh less than 270 lbs.

Details, trip would leave from Portland Indiana from the Portland municipal airport.

Cost, aviation fuel isn't cheap and it takes $150 to make the round trip...so it would be $75 for each of us.

Picking you up at an airport on the way is no problem, the airports I pass are Lima, Findlay, Ottawa, Fostoria, Fremont.

Let me know if interested!
Thanks!

I may be interested, but how do you get the 4 wheeler and shanty in the plane?  What about shiners, do you plan on getting them up there?  I am in Celina, Ohio so Portland is close enough I could be there early enough to get to PIB by sunrise.  PM me about details.

Thanks!

Hey toadfish...PM sent!

Fellas, I got someone interested in going. If for some reason they back out, I'll post a notice.

Oh, my quad and shanty are at my house on the island.
