  2. 10(ct) $150 pick up in Oswego only

     

    Lightly used almost new, different butt sections, some plastic and some blue foam

     

    Rods are med action and are adequate for riggers, cores on small boards (like a TX 22), and slide divers

     

    Same rods shown in images on a 75 ft slide diver and the other on a 5 color small board

     

    I may actually have a few more that are older but still ok that I'd thrown in on a package deal for the same price, just got to find them

  3. I called to cross 5 times during the Salmon Slam event, (Niagara river area) each time they were different in their questioning and call's ranged from 2 minutes to 15, One time they brought up an occurrence I had 14 years prior and I was denied, the very next day everything was ok and I was given permission to cross again. There are no set guidelines just an FYI, we will always be vulnerable

    Last two years it was the 4th Saturday of the month. This year the 3rd Saturday. Kind of messed up my

    schedule. why the change?

     

    I never actually counted Saturdays, I've just kept it in the same position taking into consideration other events on the lake that some of us fish

     

    2012 it was June 23rd

    2013 was June 22nd

    2014 it is the 21st

     

    There are other events the same weekends every year (on the weekend before and the weekend after) so I always choose the weekend inbetween

     

    Sorry to mess you up Troy, ): this date was posted late in 2013 as soon as I knew the dates of the surrounding events

  6. As stated Mike Gustin has been a supporter for many years to the fishing events many of us love to attend. An avid big lakes fisherman and very knowledgeable, Steph and I own about 6 pair of Maui Jims, great guy, great big guy that is lol The next time someone sees him ask him about the "soup noodle" he found in an A-TOM-MIK Fly package a few years back LMAO

  7. Never worked so hard or been so proud of one 10 lb. king on game day

    onefish_zpsc152b404.jpg

     

    Ran 250 miles over 6 days, burned much fuel, had a lot of fun, cant wait to do it again

     

    Took home 2k in mostly cash and some prizes, a memorable weekend for sure, time to lick our wounds and repair our boats and get ready for the next event

     

    Get this statistic: 73 teams and about 50 tourney legal fish landed by about 1/3 of the pack

  8. Yvan, without naming anyone in-particular, how often has a coordinating figure stressed over a ruling or decision for a period of time (until they ran out of time) and then came forward with what they thought was best.

    For example:

    -Entry fee and deadline changes

    -Team structure or division changes

    -Rules governing event

    -Payout amount and placements paid

    -Observers on board or not

    -Sponsorship awards or not

    -Winnings actually being paid or not

    -At times even if a certain event would be around the following season?

     

    It is unfortunate but from season to season changes will occur !!!

     

    The list goes on and on, heck I've been at certain events on this lake when I approached an event coordinator and asked what the payouts were or what was 1st going to pay and was told and I quote "Oh $8 or $10,000" and then was on that winning team and was paid "8"

     

    I also recall events where Friday morning as we were leaving the dock for a pre-fish event I saw an angler running feverishly through the grass towards an un-named event coordinator's boat saying "Here's my money I'm in I'm in !!!"

     

    Point is these scenarios are not always favored buy coordination I am sure, nor participants, but in the hopeful betterment of it all at times its imminent

  9. Awesome !! Great work shouldering the onslaught from those who simply want to capitalize on their strong areas over the pack. This without consideration to who could possibly be liable, not easy being coordination in a position like this. KUDOS !!! If anything the end result firms up even a more level playing field: Yes as noted from another poster never "TOTALLY" level ~~~ agreed, but as close to level as possible (IMO).

     

    It's too bad how the longing for bragging rights or the Almighty dollar and/or etc. will bring us out of our well manicured being from time to time, I guess its just part of the human race we all have become a part of. If it wasn't for those who steer us back into safety where would we end up? Just ask those who've been fined or have had seizures due to related situations as this topic has exposed.

     

    Whether its border control or birth control we all need to be protected from ourselves from time to time. Its never easy when limitations are enforced and we have to counter what our heads want to do. Like I said before in another post have faith, Kevin isn't the bad guy. Why would anybody in a position like Kevin and after all he has done with this event want to take anything away from it? He doesn't !!! Countless thoughts and hours over months have gone into this.
