SBA Mendo Tourney Info

I was just at the Mendo SBA meeting and they handed out fliers for the event.  Here are the stats:

Saturday May 6th
$40 to enter...$25 for SBA membership, $15 for entry
Single heavy fish format
Free lunch
Sign up 0600
Weigh in @ 1300

100% Cash payout of $15 fee for 1st-3rd.

Me and jelly are going for the GOLD 

Cool I hope I can make it!

Can't wait I'll be there.  Group Camping? Potluck?

Man, it would be sweet to see a kayak win that!

How many motor boats usually end up on the lake for this event?

If enough want to go that would be fun.

They generally get 50-60 entrants, but there are usually at least 2 to a boat....so 25 boats or so.  I would also LOVE it if one of the "canoe people" won.

I'll be there!
Thanks for the heads-up Sean! Hope we can get another group site for NCKA

If there's another group camp then I'm definitely "IN"! 


BTW - what exactly is "going down" with this smiley?! LMAO!

That's Papa Bill playing with his new and improved plastic rockfish molds.....as you can see, It's almost "life-like" 

Bill - you are sick  - seek help 

I will commit as much as I can for the group camping bit, any chance we can get the same spot we got last time?

Sssh Mooch don't let me secrets out!

FYI I shipped your order today 

Where can you enter the tournament at?

To the best of my knowledge, you can only enter at the tourney or at the meeting in April...they are SUPER old school.

Sean, 

I am in for sure.  I will work on Brian; but I think he is saving his WAF points for Elk.

Jim

Im in for sure! My girlfreind will sign up too, she grew up fishing- her dad is a writer for western outdoor news- Jim Jones- theres even a bridge named after him on the American river. Malibu two will go for the double!

Sean, it was good to meet you at the show.

Guys, I would love to meet a few of you up at Mendo. I have been looking for an oportunity to graduate from as Sean put it, "one of the 400 odd members that never says a word".

The only water my kayak has seen so far is rain on the drive home from the store. I have been itching to get it out and at least make sure it floats. So a chance to get in the water and meet a few of you guys would be great.
I probably won't enter the Tourney (mostly because I will need advice on catching stripers up there) and I wouldn't want you all to hold back just to keep me out of the money.

looking forward,

Chas
