S-B is grandfathered into this tournament. S-B will pay the entry fee (already done) and donate prizes to the raffle.

I will need a list of people to submit prior to the star of the tournament. So join Team S-B and we'll see if we can win this dang thing!

Last year we had an impromptu BBQ on Saturday. We may do the same this year.

Thanks,

John

Cool.... BTW - S-B is taking care of the entry fee

do you need a definate answer or is a "maybe" ok? was thinking of heading down there that weekend but its not set in stone

Maybe is fine - Just need to provide a lit of names of all that might fish for the tourney, that's all/..

I Will try. I have Fri night off but work Sat. morning.

count me in.

Weekapaug Bait & Tackle going to be open for weight in during the entire time ?

Count me in

Where are the weigh stations?

Weekapaug B&T is the only weigh station. Here is the quote from the official tournament notice:

Fishing area is from Naps to Narrow River . Weekapaug is the only weigh station but they are not open round the clock. I'll post the time soon

Count me in.

Thanks

yup :wiggle:

i am in. and I catch schoolies like nobody's business. Can there be a SB only trophy for smallest fish? I need to boost my fishing self worth.
East Beach Parking lot? Luch time Sat?

Count me and possibly Katie in. Be there sometime Saturday.

john put me on the list as well Jason k.let us know if there will be a cookout I'll bring something:wiggle:

Im in for the weekend.

if the cutty plan doesn't pan out, i'm in.

John,

As always I will be fishing vor MSBA but 2will hook up with you sometime over the weekend. We (Bob & I) are at the Pine Lodge again. I will bring something for the BBQ so let me know what is up wit dat.

On a side note...Ir really stinks that Weekapaug is no longer sta6y9ng open for the whole tourney. It used to be great to stop by the shop, have a coffee, warm up, chat it upwith the guys, then go back out fishing. Captain Dons does this for the Tri State Tourney.

Yeh - dillweed, I'm staying there too :eek: :shocked: :hihi:


Yes - for years during this tourney it was open 'round the clock and was a huge advantage. King cove would always offer to stay open for us during our legs, Captain Dons will burn the midnight oil for a tourney too... I could even understand if they closed at 12:30 or something. Just tradition was good...

Count Me in
