lovinfishin9 · 03-16-06, 05:38 PM

oh and i think the last rule is required now, but im not sure

everettvet · 03-16-06, 05:48 PM

I am fairly new to this forum. How do we sign up for this tourney? Or is it open to anyone on here? Please let me know!

rrw4258 · 03-16-06, 07:06 PM

sorry guys used the wrong word there?!? Commence

and instead of september i think well go with april!

ok, so whos in??? I am! Any prizes?

lovinfishin9 · 03-16-06, 09:18 PM

Im in
you dont have to sign up its open to anyone whos a member before the tourney starts, thats why i missed the last one i joined a few days too late.

lizardsrule · 03-16-06, 10:43 PM

Just a suggestion if you really want to make it a tournament atmosphere. You need to post the day before you go, or at least some day WHEN you will be fishing the tourney. The reason is, it'll make people commit to a date, and they have that day to fish. I'm sure none of our members here would ever fish it 3-300 times until they like the weight they get LOL. Also it's any bass, Largemouth, Spotted, or Smallmouth. You must also be a member before the tourney starts, none of the catching a huge sack, and then seeing there is a tourney here, and joining and then posting it. I know all of this falls under the honor system, but put a few regulations in play will keep some of the evil doers at bay. I will see what I got to kick in for prizes.

Rodman_Rob · 03-16-06, 10:56 PM

hey lizards, wanna got to rodman again? I got a tourney to win

On another note, the Save Rodman Tournament is coming up in April. They will have the weigh in at the Kenwood Landing Boat Ramp. Just a heads up in case you wanted to fish it or just be there for the weigh in. They usually have good catches the year after the draw down.

I'm going to Rodman Saturday or Sunday with my dad, maybe both days, he's been as bad as me lately

Neither of us have fished for awhile. Is there a link to this Save Rodman tourney, if it isn't boat regulated(horsepower, size etc...) I would consider fishing it, and if it's a team tourney possibly we both could fish it, I know you have a good crankbait

not sure if they regulate the boats. Unfortunately I don't have that crankbait any longer. Need to order some more from BPS.
Good luck this weekend, hope yall run into some hawgs. be sure to post some pics.

Christopherkeene9 · 03-16-06, 11:55 PM

What is this crank bait???

Rodman_Rob · 03-16-06, 11:58 PM

its a lure

Fishie · 03-20-06, 12:34 PM

Its a saltwater kind

rrw4258 · 03-29-06, 07:59 PM

well guys,

are we going to do this or not??? April 1st is this saturday, so if we are going to have the tourney, will somebody please make some stickys or something?

Thanks

Ryan

flbassman · 03-30-06, 04:51 PM

I'm in, Especially with that new honey hole I found. Would it be okay to fish say, two afternoons, or two mornings, or a combo instead of one straight day, b/c I don't often get an oppurtunity to fish from say, 8 to 3. Maybe 10 to 1, or 1 to 4, etc.

I'm in! Are the rules for the tourney the ones already listed in this thread? Where do we post the pics/catch? Sorry for all the stupid questions, but I am new to this.

bassguy2004 · 03-30-06, 08:00 PM

I'm in. Now to address the stupid question. Is it a one time entry for largest 5 fish limit, or is it just the single largest fish entry? And can we enter as many times as we like?

rrw4258 · 03-30-06, 08:32 PM

ok guys here we go:

bassguy2004,
you go out and fish one day for a maximum of 6 hours, and you can only enter once! Biggest 5 fish limit wins... CAN SOMEBODY PROVIDE A WEIGHT CALCULATOR!!

everettvet,
As for weigh-ins i think REB, JB, or LIZARDS can get somebody to post a sticky on this... and yes same rules apply

flbassman,
i think that the rules state that you can only fish for one day. WHAT DOES EVERYBODY ELSE THINK ABOUT THIS???

NOTICE:
** You ARE aloud to have prefishing days...
** If anybody has anybody prizes to donate for 1st 2nd or 3rd go right ahead!

THE RULES ABOVE APPLY!

Any more questions??
