Good luck with the tourney there Lee.

Without a doubt one of the most fun tournaments of the year and fair with its close boundaries so the small boats can compete with the big guys. The forecast looks great. Can't wait!

Lee,
How has the sailfish bite been at WB?

I have been out of town most weekends and not fished at all this summer.

I think we are going to fish the tournament. Hope you are feeling better.

Thanks.

[Water Damage]

hope you guys have a great turn out Lee - good luck with everything. Really wish we could get down there but schedules do not allow it for us.

[Fins&Feathers]

I am in

Who else is going to fish the tourney??

This will be my first time pulling dink circle hooks any suggestions on the rig and hook ups??????????

[Robja]

Is John Boy and the Duh Huh fishing?

[reelaxin]

I am in - will be docked at the Bridge Tender for the tournament.
Rigging the dinks we have a handle on, I just hope the crew can give up the old J hook habbits when the pressure is on
There is lots of good info and videos on this site on circle rigging - have a look around.
I am taking a bucket of ice water up on the bridge and the first one to "set the hook" is gonna get a shower.

Good luck to all!

If the weather holds, from the calls I've been getting I think over 50 boats will enter, maybe even more...of corse, I'll be fishing in it, rain or shine...

Is John Boy and the Duh Huh fishing?

The "Duh Huh" will be fishing in it...as to John Boy...well that may depend on the morning after the night before...
