You know what they base the pay off on? what % is paid back vs. paying guide, etc? I thought about pleasure fishing but this could be fun. That is a quick time frame. Anyone have an idea on catch rates up there?

Mr. Holt, what if I am paired up with ya? I guess I could still be going down, hmmmm?
Grimes, I am sure the prizes will be donated as opposed to a payout, but that is purely speculation. You had better sign up!

Hi Greg - we're not sure entirely on the prizes. It depends on how many register. A small amount of the fee goes back towards the payout/prizes. Hey there Chris! All entrants will be randomly paired with another person and have the leased boat and guide. This is to make the competition totally fair.

What if I am bringing my own boat? Do I need to pay anything? Spoken like a true pro bass angler/roadie. I hope y'all have fun! I can't partake this year...but if there is any fishing at the next conference, it's ON like Donkey Kong!

James I highly doubt mid september missouri weather would feel hot to a Texan! The water should be warm and clear though for some scuba diving though if your interested?

I must really have this tournament on my mind because my wife said I was talking to Bruce Condello in my sleep. Does this mean I need counseling?

No JHAP or Brettski. Sigh. If FMcB can't make it either, we may get a better insurance rate.
