Thanks for the response. I didnt need much convincing and you gave me just enough. As long as its not pouring when I wake up I will be there in the AM. Hopefully I can ge into them a little bit, still looking for that first fish of the year. Ill be sure to post my results as well.

13 boats weighed in fish yesterday with the winner weighing in just shy of 13lbs (12.81).

Big fish went 5.46lbs.

If you saw an incident on the water that should have warranted my attention, you should have let me know or filed a complaint. Complaints are to be turned in in written form. You can identify a boat in our tournaments by the ribbons on the trollling motor from livewell checks.

As far as the tournaments being scheduled on Sundays, you're not being forced to fish them. You should fish the tournaments that fit your schedule. I'm not trying to rub you the wrong way, but I felt that Sundays were best because some of the guys have to work on Saturdays (myself being one of them). However, the fact that they are on Sundays doesn't seem to affect the turnout and I would say that everyone was pleased.

Also, Guist is a small lake with several community spots. When that many boats are on a small lake, the water is going to be shared. Sorry you had a bad experience, and you are more than welcome to contact me to discuss anything you have in mind.

Definitly not rubbing me the wrong way. I am not trying to take a shot at you, the way the tourney is run, or the day its on. I just wanted to vent some frustration. In fact, that was one of the smoothest take offs I had seen there. I was unsure if the guy that cut me off was with us or not. And since I took out early I guess I won't know. I never even thought to look for a ribbon until we were both gone and out of sight. Yes it made me mad but its just the fact that some people have no common courtesy. I know there are many "holes" that everyone knows about. I show respect to whomever is fishing them at that time. I guess some people just don't know any better. This has been brought up here before and I'm sorry to bring it back up.

I think that Sundays are a good idea for sure, for the very reason that you gave. It helps me too. I just wasn't expecting to feel like I just went three rounds with Mike Tyson at days end. Sunday was always a nice day to recooperate and be lazy, but I will adjust and get used too it. The only reason I feel like I would switch is because of me and my lack of confidence in the lake. I was coming off a good fall season with a second place finish on the last event and ticked because I didn't have a bite all day. Nothing that you have done would affect that decision.

I know this is your first division you have run and I think you did a heck of a job. I will be there for the next tourney. Oh and I have your chip by the way. I forgot to ask what boat you were in at the start or I would have come and found you and given it to you. I'll be there early so that you will have it in time. Do you remember what team won and how did you guys do? Thanks for your time and look forward to seeing you next time.

......because I didn't have a bite all day.

I feel your pain. It was definitely tough out there that day.

Also, there's still a few other of my chips floating around out there..
