Austin, you are welcome to fish alone as Billy stated, however if there are any non-boaters who qualify and need a boater, we will make every effort to help them fill a backseat. Thanks, Al</p>

So if you fish with a partner it is $60.00, but if you fish by yourself it is only $30.00. emoScratch

Did I understand that the payouts were doubled on this one, so instead of first being $200.00 it is $400.00? or are you guys just going to pay out more places? emoScratch

The way I read it the money is not per boat as it has been for the other events but per angler, therefore one guy is I guess half the price of the normal 2 angler boat.

 

[antman1331]

you left me off the list... I fished the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, and the 9th one... check it...

Jim you are correct on both counts. We will keep the payout structure the same. Thanks, Al</p>

Well....kinda....

The thing I see here is if you fish with a partner you have a chance to have two hooks in the water at all times and you have the benefit of a net man. However if you want to go for the money and fish by yourself you have a chance to win a pot that you do not have to split for half the price a team is paying. emoScratch Kind of a weird way of doing it but then again if you are on fish and do not want to share that spot you are also not penalized by having to pay $60 for your boat to fish by yourself. If all 33 anlgers show with or without a partner the money in the pot will still be $30 for each angler. I have never seen a tournament done this way in all the years I have fished them but we shall see how this all pans out in the end. emoRolleyes Jmax

Jim, you are correct again!</p>

 

[Jmax]

Sounds fine to me AL. Me and Taz will be there. I like the idea of having two hooks in the water vrs one by yourself. If you are not on fish then you can have two offerings at a time to hopefully find what they are hitting. Then the net man is always a nice thing if you get that kicker on. The pay out of $400.00 for first is still not bad for a two man team. emoAngel

Anyone that is qualified for this one that needs a ride better be speaking up so you can fish it with someone that needs a partner. emoThumbsup

Looking forward to it. emoAngler Jmax
