I thought the timing seemed self-serving but do as you wish.I look forward to the celebration at the conclusion.  BTW how many members are in our "club"? |

if OTW allows internet fishing sites to participate, there should be a seperate division for them. Not knocking this site or anyother site, but the membership levels on these sites are monstorous. Plus, each site has members from maine to north carolina. If SB.com enters i will all of you the best of luck  Im not going to enter. |

I don't think that I'm gonna enter. I do applaud otw's response to concerns of fishermen but I just don't see this as something that's for me.

I don't think the forums should enter as a club, at first I did but after giving it some thought I think the traditional clubs are what OTW had in mind. Also I am not going to enter as a club member for msba either since only 10 fish can be entered, I don't want to get involved with any of that since they most likely would want the best fisherman to enter fish and I have to be lucky to catch one 30 or better each year. Seems like it will take alot of decisions to which fish should be entered, if 10 fish get weighed in fairly early in the tourney, then that lessons the chance for the club to win I'd say, so maybe the club will have to figure out how to keep track of club entered fish possible by updating there website or something, I see problems there.
Maybe I'll join just to go to the party afterwards |

Slip,I think it's the combined weight of the top 10 fish.If that's the case,you have as good a chance as anyone else.Also you would have the ability to stay current with the smallest of the 10 to aid in your decision of whether to keep the fish in question. |

I was checkin out the old trophy at the mass show.the numbers on there where way up there for ten fish. 547 comes to mind there was a 600 number if I remember right.
Slips a great fisherman.As a club of one he might not win.From the surf last yr i would guess the top ten for our club was low 400's.Thats not alot I so i hope my point doesn't come across in "typical" NJ fashion.From a boat it'll take over 500 to win.What do u think it'll take from the surf to win.2 yrs ago in NJ i had 160 lbs for 5 fish.I also had a 36 in the canal that would have added 8 lbs to that total.5 40's would be 200 lbs.I would tip my hat to that. |
FORE!
It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..

I think there would have to be a lot of good fortune to average over 40# for the top 10 from surf.From a boat,it's a different story and could conceivably happen in one night.With the captain handing out cows to clubmates to get weighed in.I'll be happy to qualify for a pin with the tournament ending so early.That's fishing,you never know.

What I have not officially heard is - will they allow sites to compete. But the "rumor" mill has it that the sites would be SB RI or SB Mass. Don't know if ANY of it is true. And even if it is I don't know if S-B will field a team - that is up to all of you. At this point I am even money fishing it whether or not SB is in, individually or with a club for which I am a member.
Oh and the party afterwards, I think we need to book some rooms, TF HTF nite  |
