    It will be interesting to see if the weights for the first La Crosse BWS fall in line with the weights we saw yesterday.

    Slop, if you pay my fees, I’ll supply the boat and some fish.

    Let me know if they draw more then 40 boats. Then we might be interested. Mo money more talent and more competition. Thats what makes me tic.

    JC, if those Smallies move back into that bay and get fatter, we may have to take a shot at the title. We’ll just need a narrower boat this time.

    They are not exclusive to pool 8. They weren’t last year anyway.

    If they are exclusive to pool 8, then that is their loss…..

    You are correct blue…The flyer lists pool 8, but deep into the tiny writing it says you can lock.

    I am still looking for a partner . I do have a boat, not the fastest on the water, but it will do the trick. If you do not have a boat, but still want to tourney fish, please let me know soon.

    Pool 8 has a no wake zone when the river exceeds 10ft. The river is forecast to hit almost 11ft. What are the chances of this tourney happening. If I recall correctly, the no wake zone will run from the lock & dam to just south of Brownsville. That’s a lot of idling.

    I sent them an e-mail asking that same question. Still waiting for a reply. I’ll post it when I get it. I’ve already sent in the fees so if I is on I’ll be there.

    I hope you guys are able to fish. It’ll probably take another nice bag to win. I’m gonna guess 15.07. Somebody’s gotta have some piggies tucked away.

    Although this high water may deter some people from fishing. It’ll be interesting to see how many boats are in it.

    I’m in.

    We’ll be signing up the morning of though, just in case they do cancel…There is no refund, i think it just goes to the next tourney on the circuit.

    Did you and JC decide if you were fishing it?

    We are also going to sign that morning. I do have a question;Are they going to check in at the launch or over at Bob’s. I asked that question at Bob’s and he said he didn’t know for sure as they have not said much to them about it. So, at 5 a.m., we have to try and find where to sign. I would sure like to get on some fish soon though .

    Last year the sing up at the landing. I would guess it would be the same this year.

    I think this move could really hurt their standing as a circuit.

    1. Because they already have a Lansing division
    2. They guys who fish for points are out of luck.
    3. Hard feelings if they do not refund money for people who do not want to fish pool 9.
    4. The guys who have booked hotels have an hour drive each way.
    5. Lodging in Lansing is limited and getting a room on short order is difficult.
    6. Guys that wanted to fish pool 7 will most likily not fish the circuit only sporadic tourneys.
    Ant the biggest reason this will hurt BWS is because Blue said so.
