Has a admin seen this/any possibly guys?

 

Waiver or not, we would have to get legal counsel before we could endorse it. Of course, what you guys wanna do on your own is up to you ;)

But an 'official' endorsement would require some thought..but we have lots of time.

You may do well to talk to the guys doing the Twoonie Series.

definately a good idea but the locations are gonna have to be spread out a bit, the names thrown out are all 4-10 hour drives for me and i can imagine the guys in kenora and dryden and the northern parts would feel left out if they're all held in southern ontario.

One way you could include everybody would be to make it an on-line tournament rather than having everybody meet up at a certain body of water.

 

Set a date & a species and then folks could fish wherever their located in the country, or even south of the border, then post pictures of their catches with the size of the fish.

 

We did this type of tourney for muskies twice a few years back and it actually ran very smoothly. Course you have to trust folks to submit the proper weights for fish, but normally if there's no cash or prizes for the winner.....just bragging rights.....things usually go pretty good.

 

It's just a thought, but with our members spread over 2 countries it would be impossible to have tournies that included everyone who wanted to participate :dunno:

there are a lot of tournies set up like that you have to have one person setting up the tourny give a random number eg. 45673989 and that would have to be in the picture with the date on a piece of paper to know it was caught that day as the number isnt given out till till that morning.

 

then you have to trust that everyone is honest about the weight as for fish like musky and pike they usually go by length

The tournies we fished, we were told the day before to hold a certain object in the picture....which is just to keep folks honest....but it's the same idea.

 

Ever try to hold a 4' musky while balancing a basketball on yer head ?? :lol:

Some very good ideas. I have some stuff drawn up and will have time over the holidays to put everything together. Mods if you want to jump in here to give me suggestions or approval.

Thats a great idea for bragging rights and for a prize,maybe bump you up a level on OFC.Or even a trophy picture beside your handle until the next tourney.
