BASS BOYS will be over on Friday. can't wait.

Where's the weigh-in? Apologies if the answer is obvious to those who fish out of Port St. Joe. I've never cast a line there.

At Jerrys Bait and Tackle.

Pay no attention to my wayward fishing partner who is trying to lead you astray Gary......The weigh in will be at the City ramp in Port St. Joe.

Jumptrout and Stinson will be there.

Thats funny JT....you need to post more often !!!

Castleberry, Bushatz, and Padgett are in. Hey where is everybody staying?

Bass boys staying at The Dixie Belle Inn.

We called them but they said there was a two night minimum

We (Stinson's) had the same problem and ended up renting a house in Pt. St. Joe. Motel's have gotten more crowded and expensive over there and are requiring minimum stays now....

Team Chasin' Tail will be there Harwood,Wiley and maybe a non-member guest ,not sure yet.

There is a pavilion right at the city ramp. If you take Hwy 71 in you would run directly into the ramp and weigh in location.

Has anyone tried the Mainstays??

Yes we called them, but they didn't have any double bed rooms available. The Port Inn has some Doubles open but they're $159.

Made mine 6 weeks ago.
They told me then rooms were going fast.
