I might be in. But i will not be bonking a spring unless its a clean doe. I have partner in mind. Not a big time member here, but he does have an account. (Chronic Flosser) LOL. i however don't have a levelwind anymore so i'll have to figure something out.

Sounds good. If you can bring him then the more the marrier. 

On this weigh in thing, what do you guys want, a couple of pics with a tape measure, or a weigh in station?  Keep in mind, if you keep a fish to weigh in you are done.  If you take a couple pics, and gently release one, you can keep fishig and try for a bigger one. 

Also I never said you couldn't keep your fish.  If you want to, that is fine.  But the measurements and the formula is pretty accurate.  That is why a quick pic of the length and girth would do just fine.  Then we just mark it down, bring a calculator and there you go, a quick easy winner.  I have a note book a calculator and a nice soft roll up measuring tape.  Which would be a must for this.  Just go to walmart or something, they are cheap.  One per team.  I would even go get enough for each team, along with pens and a small note pad for each team. :)

Good idea Lil Fishermen.  SO far we have:
Roekid and Fish Freak
Birdman and Dad?
IH8XC and Cronic Flosser?
Big Steel and Thick Rick

People with out definate partners:
Lil Fishermen
Shane
Dead Head
Coho Kid


Ones who would like to Volunteer if needed:
testo84

Not sure if we will need volunteers, depending on whether or not there is a weigh-in.  But it would be a good chance for some newer fishermen to tag along and learn a few tricks and meet some great people and I guess some ok fishermen.  ;D

  Remember though, just a reminder.  The stop fishing time would be 11:30 so we could crash the Fundraisor and determine a winner, and give a donation to a good cause.  SO meet up would be at around 6 am at a designated spot.  Once everyone get's their Soft Flexi tape measures and note pads it is off to fishing area of your choice.  Then we meet at the fundraiser for 12:30 to compare notes and determine a winner.  That is how it will now go down. Sounds good to me, any other adjustments can be made.  No pics on the digital, fish doesn't count.  SO make sure that at least one person on the team has a camera.  I could loan mine out, as I know lot's of you gus have one.


So that makes 6 possible teams, and I see that Rick is getting whiney!! ;D ;D
