this is open to anyone on here? i'd love to participate in my first and meet a few of you guys. work gives me plenty of paid vaca so i'm free and open towards any and all ideas

I'm for a boat tourney. For all those that think boat fishing is easy!!

Good ideas and discussions. John if you need to, get a few folks together and this stuff together I suggest taking the following approach:

1. Gathering a few folks interestered in the tourneys and having them extablish dates times etc as well as other logistics.

2. Determine any prize award or point status.

3. Have a fun time.

I think its great that youre def. interested in making sure the community here is involved and by the response here you can see theres an interest, but between the site and everything else dont spread yourself too thin. Just get a few folks who make good decisions and have them plan 1 event. See how that goes and move from there, we're already in month7 4 legs at this point is pretty tough to pull off.

I volunteer our place in the fall if you want to put together an RI gathering there. We're right next to the beach and if folks are interested with doing a breakfast on the sunday morning the andrea is right down the road.

How about a season-long HMS sanctioned tuna tourney?:jester:

You'd need a boat with a gas tank bigger than a lawn mower for that :wave:
