One is and probably my other choice is too. If he is in town

That was my suggestion. Just hard to put everything together with regards to sponsors, etc... Not that I am the sponsorship guru, but I learned that you have to have everything lined up by the end of Q3 for a tourney to be held the following year as sponsorship dollars are already committed by that time and there is a cutoff. Not saying everyone operates this way, but the big boys certainly do.

Can't tell you how many people I spoke to, but they all want to know the tourney history, # participants, # spectators, # sponsors, etc...

I think Shad/W need to make the call on all this stuff. I am more than happy to continue the sponsorship effort for the main charity event but anything beyond that may dilute someone's willingness to contribute as money is tight for everyone right now, even the big names in the industry...

Just my $0.02...

i think hopedale would be good espc. if its windy like this past weekend it would allow people in smaller boats the ability to fish tons and tons of marsh or if the weather permits you can fish tons and tons of open water. all i know is after the sfa ( after june 6th) id like to have a goup of guys down to fish breton sound/ venice for fun or a lil cash pot

Fool can't fish man. He is the paparazzi for the tourney.

[RaginCagin]

I'm all about gi. My favorite place to fish by far. We need to get a group to go no mater what.

Shad and I .........will get with Speckdaddy and Fool to make a decision about one in the late summer..........Im sure it will be Lake P due to the location is about the same for most of the East side of the state with a big wide open area to fish..........

Also were looking for a Freshwater one as well...might be Toledo or False River Lake....

We know we wont be able to please everyone but to make it fare as possible and convenient

the reason i voted for grand isle is to allow waders, kayakers, inshore, offshore, etc....

a little bit of everything for everyone, including the beach for wives/kids who don't fish

lake p is a hard lake to fish for newbies if you don't hire a guide
