Hey Joe, Its Mr. Dodge I am sure ya remember me... This tourney It list Robins and Jeffs shop at Quonny now do us guys from SOCO have to drive up to middletown or can we do everything threw Quonny??? Or do we have to be present at Tourney end to claim prize if anything won?? Just wondering seeing as I drive a beater truck lol...

Hey how ya doin?! You can sign up at any of the 9 weigh in stations and you're all set. Weigh in fish at any of them too,just keep your ticket, as the number on it will be your registration number in the shop for the tournament. We will get the 3 biggest fish weights from each shop and the 3 biggest of those will be the 1st ,2nd,and 3rd place winners. You don't have to be there to claim your trophy but you do have to be there for the raffle. If anybody wins and is not there to get their trophy , I will take it and say that I won.:rotflmao:

:rotf2: Damn Joe that sounds like some piracy to me....:think: You sure your not from the Island????? :biglaugh: Ok sounds good thanks for the info... Im gonna be testing further those tins this weekend on the Block with my conventional they cast really well... Almost all my braid disappeared last time I threw them but that was only about 185 yards so......

Great job on the poster graphics, Johnny...:kewl:

And an excellent photo of Senor Habs with the stogie...:hihi:

Posters and tournament tickets will be at the shops listed real soon - me and Unca Joe are gonna take a spin Thursday to drop off tickets to the RI weigh stations...:ss:

And like Joe said, the raffle alone is worth the price of admission and the proceeds go to a good cause helping critically ill children and their families

Looking forward to good fishing for a great tournament and plenty of fun at Flo's Friday and the Awards Ceremony and Raffle at the Bloooberry Factory Sunday

Rumor has it there's gonna be some really nice old fish pictures raffled off as well...;)

See you guys there...:wave:

The Edge has the sign up materials and the rest of the RI shops will have it Thursday.Dave ,aka Canalman, will be getting the registration tickets to the Ma shops in the next few days. So get out there and sign up for a good time and a great cause in memory of our old friend John.:cheers2:

Joe, is there still a way to register online?

Unfortunately I will be unable to fish the tourney this year. It's a "my weekend" for the kids (which is fortunate for me) and since the divorce, "my weekends" are the light at the end of the tunnel.

So Good Luck to all, hope you all catch cows and continue to support the cause.

No online registration ,just the shops.
