G/I sounds good to me. I like the fun tourney's also. No pressure. e-man, it looks like you have some good knowlege about G/I, also Meaux fishin knows the area too. Yall get together and set a date. If you guy's don't mind. I'm willing to do anything that I can do to help.

Does the gulf settle down in June??? I'm like Tim, I'd love to go get some snapper...

The large forum-sponsored events will have a fundraising basis, but anyone can organize a smaller tourney on their own.

I didn't see anyone griping about anything.
We can make this happen but i don't think that you will get sponsors to contribute 2 or 3 times a year.
like i said one BIG tourny yearly and bungles the rest of the time.
If ev1 wants to pitch in a few bucks for the cause we can donate.
I would rather fish for braggin rights and let funds go to the foundation.

I agree with that. Any prizes will be donated items going forward. Other than those prizes and maybe a few trophies, it is just a fun event. Having sponsors just makes it more fun because there are door prizes, etc.

I think our official SC tourney each year will be a 2-part or 3-part tourney, maybe 2 saltwater events (east and west) and a freshwater event. We're working on the details now.

Yes Sir i am . Hunt nfish was the most laid back friendly site i have ever been on. and they had bungles that i don;t know could ever be matched,

Last year for the July 4th weekend, the winds were whipping out the West, like they were last weekend on Big Lake.

[QUACKHEAD]

Yea Ray. I went last year the weekend before the forth and couldn't get but about 1/2 way out of the jetties.

We could do a get together at the same time as the speckled trout rodeo on memorial day weekend...then people could compete in a tourney if they want we could still have our own side pots/bragging rights....long weekend...there is still alot of camps open that weekend
