OH, and lets all remember, this is a 100% pay back T. This T is about fun and fellowship, not about someone trying to make an easy buck off of you for writing down names and weighing a few fish.

If this is a shot at some of the people that are actually respected on this forum, it only confirms that you are in fact a dumbass

It wasnt a shot. It was more of a poke. Chitown I can understand why YOU would think that calling me a dumbass might hurt my feelings but I am not sensitive to childish crap.

Fishndude. I participated in the past with a friend who has a bass boat. I myself only have a kayak, I do on planning on getting a livewell for it very soon, can I participate in any future working man tournaments? Is this just open to boats only with livewells? Would love to fish in this tournament it would be great fun!

TBChaser, The only problem I see with it is I think the Decker limit is 3 fish per person, but I could be wrong. other than that you are more than welcome.
