The "It's Over" late season large extravaganza begins!!!

Its Over!!!!

Here' s how to play...

1. Fish must be shore caught striped bass.

2. Mass/RI/CT/ME/NH waters only.

3. Provide sufficient proof of your catch, photo preferred...no need to kill the fish.

4. NO CHEATING...I have an internal B.S. Meter that functions flawlessly...

5. Contest ends on Thanksgiving day.

6. "Grand Champion"- Largest entry by weight shall receive a Danny Pichney Conrad SR. COPY from my stash.

7."Late Champion" category- Last fish to be entered by date shall receive a 7" Danny Pichney sand eel COPY from my stash.

Plugs awarded will be similar to those pictured below. I have black, yellow, white, and sand eel for colors.

Additionally, the newer ones I just made are closer to the original specs thanks to a trusted mentor who pointed out some flaws in my first batch. I'll get pics of the new ones up once they're clear coated.

RMARSH is our defending champion from last year with a 37# fish taken in late October.

Just use any commonly accepted form of measurment...hand scale, tape measure, formula, whatever...just try to get a pic if you can... I'm not giving away a new mercedes here, just a couple lures. :laugha: "Close enough" is fine by me.

If its real close I have plenty of plugs to give out in the event of a tie.

you mean now i gotta bring a camera with me:fishin: :( :smash:

Circlehook 10-13-2010 03:08 PM

I love this. Nothing begs up motivation to go fish hard like the premise that there are no fish to catch.

WoodyCT 10-13-2010 03:26 PM

Danny would chit over those queah colored sparkles. ;-))

Nice looking plugs BB!

And if anyone can top it. I will throw in a vintage Habs Sr. 9" needlefish in olive/white in excellent condition.

O.D. Mike 10-15-2010 07:04 AM

Back Beach great idea!

Is this a lures only contest?

Liv2Fish 10-16-2010 07:03 AM

I'm in from the canal region.

Back Beach 10-16-2010 08:08 AM

No need to turn this into another "I'm in" thread....everyone is automatically in, just put up a fish and have fun with it...:btu:

21 posts on this thread and no fish yet? Did everyone quit? Figured Numbskull for at least a 16" fish by now...

I have some original Pickney's and he used sparkles also. (I think--I better check!). The epoxy coat actually seem better on these new ones.

Does Block Island count for the contest? I wonder if there should be a separate category considering how late the fish are out there...

Back Beach 10-16-2010 11:46 AM

Block=RI...its in bounds without a doubt.

numbskull 10-16-2010 04:12 PM

CRAP! I was going to go get a 16" fish tonight. Now I gotta get serious. :confused:

SAUERKRAUT 10-16-2010 07:43 PM

Back Beach:

How about a special recognition for the contender fish that are C&R'd?
