UserRemoved 04-28-2011, 09:55 AM Guys I don't want to crap on your parade but just remember there's alot of people out there out of work and no funds. Probably alot of people here too. I think it's great what your doing. Wish I could fish. I'll go in if someone can hold my rod and operate my reel :hee:

We know and we understand, just thought turn out would be a little stronger. I KNOW there are a lot of people in tough straights, especially as of late.
Also know turnout would be better if I had an extra clone to do more work :tooth:

fishbones 04-29-2011, 04:57 PM Heading out now. Hopefully have some pics to post tomorrow. Good luck to all who are participating!
numbskull 04-29-2011, 08:19 PM You'ze guys are dog meat! Just sayin'
Tonight, open beach, Falmouth.
Forgot my tape, but I've got a witness.....albeit a wet and bad smelling one.
JohnR 04-29-2011, 09:11 PM I don't think four legged catch works before the release ;)
Looks like Numby kicks it off ;)
Clammer 04-29-2011, 10:33 PM SHORT SHIFT /SKUNKED
Hooked 4 landed 3 got a pic of 1... :smash: the little ones are scrappy!
Tried to include date and time on the pic but couldn't figure it out.
fishbones 04-30-2011, 07:37 AM Nice job, numbskull and JLH. Way to kick things off. I went left where I should have taken a right. There was a decent school of small fish harassing some small bait, but there was too much weed in the water for my lures to be effective.
GregW 04-30-2011, 07:40 AM Tagger just gave me his entry fee. He's in.
We are headed out to hopefully catch a few,

Rob Rockcrawler 04-30-2011, 10:23 AM Getting ready to walk out the door and my camera battery is dead. Its getting a 20 minute charge.
Clammer 04-30-2011, 11:13 AM your lucky its only your camer battery :devil2:
numbskull 04-30-2011, 04:21 PM Tried to cheat and use a flyrod this am........now I remember why I gave that up :wall:.
Afternoon dog walk got me a point, however. Watch out JLH, I'm gaining fast!:lama:
tattoobob 04-30-2011, 04:49 PM I just send 20 bucks to the cause, I'm not fishing yet. (Tagger has a new fishing buddy) It's the very least I could do seeing I won that sweet RM Smith plug from you Greg
Tagger 04-30-2011, 05:31 PM Greg ,, Great getting skunked with you today .. Don't listen to Clammer .. We'll catch fish someday . (little ones):rotf2:... Hey Bob !!! relax , Don't be getting the divorce papers yet . :fury: I got new rubber.. be hitting the pavement soon .. :uhuh:
GregW 04-30-2011, 05:59 PM Yep. Got the skunk today.
But, id rather go out and get skunked than sit home and wonder.
Plua it served as a good trial run. *Remember to charge batteries for camera.*:wall:

You should have come along. You might have been able to help pull me out of that waist deep mud I got myself into. :rotf2::biglaugh:
tattoobob 04-30-2011, 08:20 PM Nice tires you have there Ed, Greg I have been stuck in mud before it sucks you in and won't let go
GattaFish 05-01-2011, 08:39 AM Tried to include date and time on the pic but couldn't figure it out.

Rob Rockcrawler 05-01-2011, 09:17 AM Fished yesterday for about 6 hours and got the skunk. Tried toggin from shore. As usual i used 4 of the 20 something crabs i had. Nice to get out and support a good cause while doing it.
JohnR 05-01-2011, 09:21 AM You guys have beat me, skunk or no. Stuff SMACK DAB in the middle of the day cutting out enough of morning or evening to kill a fish trip with the kid :wall:
BMEUPSCOTTY 05-01-2011, 09:21 AM I just PP'd my way in.... not sure if/ when I'm gonna get out... do I need a license now?!?:smash:

timmah 05-02-2011, 04:42 PM Got my first DEFINITIVE HIT last night but didn't hook up,:smash: but darn, it felt good. Fish had some weight to it too. Trying again tonight.
basswipe 05-02-2011, 07:29 PM I think I have a run at the smallest fish, around 14" but no pic though.I'll try again tomorrow and this time I'll bring the camera!
numbskull 05-02-2011, 07:49 PM Better tonight. 2 fish in the rocks. A little better size. I think the first was about 30-31" (although the perspective says less...the plug is 6.5"), the second about 28"........but I didn't check in case I was wrong ;)
Tagger 05-02-2011, 07:53 PM Love that dog ,. still a fish licker ?
numbskull 05-02-2011, 08:01 PM :uhuh:

chefchris401 05-02-2011, 08:31 PM Got two tonight on my own wood, no real size but one on a flaptail hybrid and one on a pencil.

Join the club. I've never started the season off with 3 skunkings in a row. At least last night, my fishing partner caught a couple fish. I had 2 on that I fought for a few seconds before they got themselves freed. I guess I'll blame it on the crushed barbs rather than my own ineptitude.
Not sure when I'll make it out again, but I'll keep giving it a try until I land one.
zimmy 05-03-2011, 09:09 AM Having never entered a tournament like this before, I learned that taking a one handed picture of a thrashing schoolie in chest deep water in the middle of the night is a bit of a challenge.:uhuh:
I forgot to add, I said f'it after awhile. The cause is why I entered anyway. I think we CT guys have an unfair advantage this early, anyway.

I,ll be getting my s/w license earlier than I thought .
Good thing I,m ot riding around in the boat looking for whats not there :wall:
One landed last night on a Danny and one miss.
numbskull 05-04-2011, 07:58 PM Yikes, this is getting serious. I'm standing out there in lightning trying to no avail to hook fish too small to eat a 5" plug :smash:. Still stuck on 4 fish total.
Clammer 05-04-2011, 08:52 PM flat ass calm / 1 hour before dark .prime conditions for schoolies ............... 0/0/0 Again .
no surprize to me ...........only been saying it for the last 5/6 years :smash:
& your not even sure all the fish that have been caught are [fresh] ...... the holdovers [Hudson river Fish ] leave also & go further up the coast ; & your resident summer schoolie is from the Chessie & there are only drips & large :wall:coming from there .
zimmy 05-05-2011, 07:20 AM Landed 3 or 4 nice'ish (have to check the camera :confused:) fish last night and dropped the same. If only this thing started the previous week :smash: Tonight's another night :uhuh:
tysdad115 05-05-2011, 08:11 AM I finally found one dumb enough this morning!
ThrowingTimber 05-05-2011, 09:31 AM Dropped a micro last nighht I didn't have the heart to setup on it for fear of zinging it over my shoulder :( needless to say I dropped it before I touched the leader. Hope to sneak out tonight.

timmah 05-05-2011, 09:48 AM This should get the prize for worst cell phone pic ever. Much better class of fish about 34" FAT stuffed with herring?. Even pulled some drag.
numbskull 05-05-2011, 08:02 PM After 3 days and about 8 hours of fishing I finally got another tonight.
Good thing, too. The dog was getting totally disgusted with me.
Clammer 05-05-2011, 09:04 PM :wall::jump1::devil2::rotf2::smash:numbskull.s the f #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&g best .please can I fish with you :fury::fury::fishin::soon:

Nice fish on a good looking plug.
Clammer 05-06-2011, 12:09 AM WTF ; SKUNKED AGAIN WITH A BONUS ....F $%^&*()_ FREEZING :smash:

Yup. I suspect these fish are from the northern rivers, not the Chesapeake yet. Had a friend kill a 30" fish yesterday....it was full of eggs. If it had been from the south I think it would have spawned......or already been dead. On a brighter note, he got into plenty of fish with his flyrod so maybe things will pick up.
tysdad115 05-06-2011, 06:13 AM Skunk this morning.

zimmy 05-06-2011, 07:41 AM shut the alarm off at 4 and went back to sleep :confused:
Skunked last night... Should have been there an hour or two earlier before the shut down.

timmah 05-06-2011, 10:35 AM The atmosphere completely changed last night. Water not moving as well and NO BAIT, NO BAIT, NO BAIT at 3 separate locations. Desolate. Not even the slightest sign of bait. :wall:
chefchris401 05-06-2011, 12:54 PM Went yesterday after work, wrong wind, and the tide was too late, managed to have one fish blow up a pencil 6 feet from me, and not land it.
So far just two fish.
Hopefully get out tonight after work.

numbskull 05-06-2011, 08:58 PM Two tonight, 2 1/2 hours, rough conditions. Felt like a blitz. :1poke:
That only gets me to seven.....but I'm getting hot! :rollem:
Clammer 05-06-2011, 11:17 PM sure thing tomorrow ;
I,m going digging :uhuh:
ThrowingTimber 05-07-2011, 06:58 AM Finally on the board got one about 12-15" last night. Need to find a tiny bass!! Must beat Denis!! :)

John, do fish need to be posted by 9am tomorrow or can they be caught prior to 9 and put up here later in the day?

I may tomorrow, but I thought this went for 2 weeks, oh well.
Danny didn't get out either
I'm glad some of you are catching fish :btu:
Clammer 05-07-2011, 10:55 PM i WENT TO A isolated /quiet spot tonight / conditions were right ................. didn,t matter / never got to fish . dead battery in the truck . not one car came down so I could jump / called AAA & they had trouble finding me .just got in :smash:
Rob Rockcrawler 05-07-2011, 11:09 PM Drew another blank today. The fish were there and liked what i was throwing. But it was the kid 50 feet away that was catching.
numbskull 05-08-2011, 07:53 AM Ending with a whimper. A single fish this am.
Landed two in around 4 hours of fishing last night but only one pic due to camera battery dying on me...
Notfishinenuf 05-08-2011, 09:03 AM Finally got out for a couple of hours this AM. Nada nothing zip! My son graduated from college yesterday! That made it a good week even though I could not get out and fish much. I am just glad I was able to help support a good cause. Thanks to John and Greg for putting this together.

fishbones 05-08-2011, 10:09 AM Finally got off the shnide this morning. Had 9 tourney eligible fish and 1 that came right after it ended. 3 keeper size out of the 10. All caught on an OD Mike spook.
fishbones 05-08-2011, 10:10 AM More pics.
fishbones 05-08-2011, 10:11 AM Last 3 fish.
fishbones 05-08-2011, 10:14 AM This little guy waited until 9:03 to get caught. I had to check my watch while I was reeling in because I thought I might have made it in time. Big thanks to GregW and JohnR for putting this on!
tysdad115 05-08-2011, 10:57 AM Thanks to John, Greg and everyone who joined. It was a fun week and I wouldn't have gotten out as much if this wasn't going on. Congrats to those who caught and those who tried
. This was for a great cause, and best of luck to Greg in the 9K, thank you for your service. Hope to see you all out there somewhere this year.

John really deserves the credit on this.
Without this site and the tourney site this wouldnt have been possible. I can barely get onto websites nevermind build them.
Reflecting on this tournament I noticed something unique. I noticed this tournament was different than all others I have been in.
First of all I noticed everyone seemed to have a good time participating. No gripes, complaints or bad taste in anyones mouth. Everyone fished however they normally would have. other than getting out a few more times. No fish were harvested. People posted there skunkings. People were hoping for a micro sized bass. lol.
And most of all everyone seemed to have fun.
Refreshing to see it happen this way.

Hehehe - yeh - that was fun :tooth:
Thank you gentlemen!
Let's tally up some totals and we'll put the raffle chances together ;)
Thanks :btu:
tysdad115 05-09-2011, 05:50 AM I'm no math genius, so my "tally up" equals one! I like to keep it simple.

denis 05-09-2011, 09:42 AM Just trying for the smallest,so only count the two posted.
Nice job John.
Good luck in the run Greg.
timmah 05-09-2011, 10:04 AM #6 - Sat night/Sun morn was an incredible calm night on the water with FISH EVERYWHERE. I think they were on clam worms or shrimp. They were finning and breaking all around me for 2 hours and I could only manage one landed and dropped two. I wish I had a fly rod. Great tournament guys Thanks. 6 fish total 26" to 34".
zimmy 05-09-2011, 10:11 AM I am one of those kids who needs an ed plan and adult guidance (as those of you in the politic forum already know) so forgive me for messing this up... but it looks like we put our tallies here (?)
I had 4 fish one night witnessed, but no photo. 3 fish unwitnessed another night but photographed (i can upload those photos this afternoon). Also, one big skunk in the wee hours of sunday morning to finish it out.
Grand total for 3 trips = 7 fish :smash: things better pick up down here :)
zimmy 05-09-2011, 10:13 AM by the way, great tournament :claps: Thanks John and everyone else who put this together. Let's do it again next week :love:
I had 6 fish during the tourney but only have proof (photos) of the 3 I already put up.
Fished a total of 5 nights (around 10 hours total) with two skunkings. Fish ranged from ~22” up to 35”.
fishbones 05-09-2011, 10:29 AM I ended up with 9 total fish all from the same general area in a span of 3 hours. I didn't take real measurements in order to get them back in the water quickly, but 3 of them were past the 28" mark on my rod. The rest were all about 17 to 22". I had a blast even on the nights I went out and got skunked. It was fun and for a great cause.
Kudos to Greg and John for putting this on for us and for all the behind the scenes work.
Clammer 05-09-2011, 10:45 AM I had six fish during the turnament /
no photos / the nights a had the camera /no fish / the nites with no camera /fish
I know Denis & Paulie had numbers / but didn,t count them it ;
it was fun .when nothing counted except the [cause]
chefchris401 05-09-2011, 01:11 PM All and all I think this tourney was a blast, honest and fun.
Only got out twice for a total of ThREE fish, only got a pic of one.
Let's do it again when some bigger fish move threw.
Thanks again John and Greg.

numbskull 05-09-2011, 04:55 PM 8 for me. Pretty weak considering I fished every night and 4 days. But it was a reason to get out, and that felt good. Thanks
JohnR 05-11-2011, 08:32 AM Really will try tonight to get this all finalized :tooth:

fishbones 05-12-2011, 08:01 AM Awesome work on this Greg! You (and JohnR) did all the hard work of putting this together and you still have to run 9K. All we had to do was go out and fish, which we love doing anyways.
