Quite a few things I would imagine.

Aren't you fishing IFA? You get to sleep in your bed and trailer to your favorite ramp for less than the entry fee for IFA - right?
You made enough money last year fishing to sponsor two teams this year - http://www.redtroutshootout.com/results.html
Pay your money and quit bitching![]()
$300 is a lot of money for those of us on the low end of the working world totem pole...even if we do win it back a lot of time.
I guess I need to get me one of those high paying military jobs! Can you float a brother a loan????
Boom goes the dynamite.

Re: Red Trout Shootout
Haven't fished shallow a whole bunch but never caught one of them red trout, only the ones with spots. Guess you have to fish JT's super secret holes to find 'em.

Re: Red Trout Shootout
looks like my dad's coming to town and we'll be playing.
what kind of 16' boat is this that people are placing a $20k value on? Any pics?

In the end we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. And we will understand only what we are taught.

Re: Red Trout Shootout
Brian there are a lot of 16' poling skiffs that fetch way more than that. Check out the price tag on an HB.
I just don't see how you put enough stuff on a 16' boat that'll drive it to that price.

Oh, I'm aware of new boat costs. I just thought the generic reference to a 16' skiff was a little weird.Reel Cowboy wrote:Brian there are a lot of 16' poling skiffs that fetch way more than that. Check out the price tag on an HB.

Will Keyser opt out of this one too?
Probably not. You can use shrimp.
