Maybe we'll have a cookout one of those days

Definitely going to at LEAST send in a check. I cannot underscore enough how good a job Jim Mckeeough, Steve and crew have done over the years on this tourney

I have watched the catch and release tournament anglers and have seen first hand how long the fish are out of the water being measured and photographed before release. The time out of the water and damage to the protective slime coat to ensure a proper picture is very disturbing to me. The use of multiple hooks also adds time to the release on top of measuring and taking pictures. Now if the anglers are limited to one entry per week utilizing codes that expire each day/night (maybe noon to noon so over night fishing isn't hampered) I would not object so much.

Different Tourney - that is like OTWs. MS Tourney is a great local tourney over a weekend.
