Possible Pot Tournament - 18 Aug (or whenever)

Hey everyone...Just wanted to throw an idea out there and see if anyone would be interested. When I was stationed at Laughlin years back, a group of us bass fishermen use to hold once a week bass pot tournaments. Everyone would show up at the ramp, put $10 in a hat and fish for a specified time. We would come back to the ramp with our 1 fish (big fish only tourney) and winner would take all.

It was a low threat, just for fun type of event. We had anywhere from $100 to $150 in the pot each week. If we got to $150, we would do 1st and 2nd, if less than 15 people, then winner take all. We could do a AOTY format with all species counting. One fish, winner take all type of deal.

Would anyone be interested in this from time to time? Lastly, I am in the Sacramento area so I would hold these somewhat close to home (AR, Port, Delta, Folsom, ect...)

We do something similar here.  We all them Money Between Friend (MBF) gatherings.

Sounds fun, I'm in Sac.
Myself and some friends do the same thing off Usal beach once a year. $20 buy in, $10 for longest fish besides ling (No Salmon) and $10 for ling cod, winner takes all. Usal beach is a short break surf launch and it can come down to surf perch depending on the WX. All in good fun and lots of yard sales which makes great video.

Pot tourney? I'm in! 
But seriously, it's been a while since the last mbf. Remember the virtual mbfs? That w/b cool too--like AOTDay. But it'd probably be harder to collect the $ after.

Misleading thread title!   

I'm down.

The points would be as follows:

Kokanee = 10 pts/in
Sturgeon = 3.75 pts/in
Lake (Mackinaw) Trout = 6 pts/in
Steelhead = 6 pts/in
Panfish = 12.5 pts/in
Smallmouth = 10 pts/in
Spotted Bass = 9 pts/in
Catfish = 6 pts/in
Largemouth = 8 pts/in
Trout = 7.75 pts/in
Salmon = 5 pts/in
Striped Bass = 5.5 pts/in

Measuring to the 1/4 inch I'm guessing? Is that how AOTY does it?

Lets do it.

I was part of a group down in San Diego called kayak fishing addicts. We would hold a monthly MBA, money between addicts, but the kicker was if you won, you had to plan the next one. We had a little display kayak that was the perpetual trophy too. The people in the club wouldn't let a week go buy before they were hounding the previous winner for the next MBA.

^ I like that concept Jeff.

I'm down for that!!

Sounds like a good time to me.....I'm in
