PA,

You're exactly correct, fishing for kids is a much worthier cause than ours and anyone associated with our tournament would be more than glad to take any young person fishing and teach them the fundamentals and enjoyment of fishing.
But due to the fact that our date was set months ago we have to continue with our plans with consideration for our sponsors and participants . With consideration for all, Take a Kid Fishing organizers chose this date, despite input from this same website about the date of our tournament. We would no way try to compete with this worthy cause. our only hope would be that every young persons wish of fishing and being on the water comes true this Saturday.

I am hopefully going to join ya'll at the weighin. Unfortunately, I will not be fishing due to boat issues. Hope all catch fish at both events.

Something like that.... Jumped when I should have putted in the West Pass. Had 4ft of water, guess the bottom jumped up to 2ft right in front of the boat. Bummer to say the least.

Had a blast at the spring jack-n-jill tourney even after running from st marks to econfina to elude
A pretty viscous thunderstorm. Good time by all and lots of good
Food, stories and sportsmanship . Hope to see ya'll there

I would love to fish this with the old lady. I've never tourney fished with her and this would certainly be a good un. Unfortunately we will be takin a kid fishin. If there is a spring tourney please post it early. I didn't know about this one until jt mentioned it when the takf post came up. I hope you have a great turnout. Good luck to all.
