Quick PIB Question
 

I am aware x-mas in July (or the 12 days of X-Mas as they are now calling it) starts this Thursday. I was planning on heading to PIB just for a day trip tomorrow, Wednesday the 16th. I shouldn't have an issue getting a dock or mooring ball for the day, should I? Was planning on being there around 11am. What do you guys think? I guess I could always anchor in front of the monument and take the water taxi......

If it was me I would give it a shot, don't think there would be an issue on Wed.

You should be fine but give the dockmaster a call just in case and get one reserved! couple years ago they had full docks all week/weekend at the end of the month only! goodluck! great time!

You will be fine. You could go Friday and still get a spot. Last year when we were there, there were available spots everywhere the whole weekend. Next weekend will be the busy one. Worse case scenario you'll have to raft off, just let them know how long you plan on staying so that they can put you somewhere you can get out easy the next day. I'd go to B dock but A and C are re done so they may be worth trying.

Have fun. We are going up the following weekend.

I had a friend tell me A dock is not open. At least it wasn't last weekend....me I read multiple places A dock opened up July 4th weekend...me did they close,it again? Weather looks good so we are going to head there tomorrow.

A dock was 2/3 open the weekend of the 11 and 12

Had no problem getting a spot at B Dock, I am betting the weather kept quite a few people away. While the forecast was for 1-3' waves, it was more like 3-5' w swells larger. Day cleared up and the ride home was much better. Looked like A Dock was completely closed today...

we reserved a dock at Middle bass for the big weekend!

See you up there! Big group of us will be at middle bass. Come say hi! Jriggs, s022mag, bigboat28, sommerfliesby, etc, etc. should be a good weekend. :drink:

ok guys need your help. Our house got trashed this weekend that we put money down on. So they said we cant rent next weekend. Its starting to look like i might have to bust out my boat and use that. Anyone know if i come out friday night, or sat morning if docking will be impossible if i want to either stay the weekend, or just for the day and leave at night. The boat is 38ft same as S022mag
