>Hey Gil sorry you had such a bad experience this weekend. I >actually had a good time. But I always have a good time at >this tourney. The fishing was tough at State Park for sure; we >sure could have used another foot of water or two! > >Here's what I have to say about the running aspect of this >tourney. >First the SCBBBC is a club that runs and always has been. >Whether it is done legally or not isn't relevant anymore with >the DFG permit that Rich has worked so hard to obtain. BnT was >a running club when I joined some years ago but choose to >become a non running club when we had our own discussions with >DFG on the subject back in 03 I believe. Does this make one >club right and one wrong when it comes to running? No, I don't >think so, it just makes them different and I am OK with that! > >Another thing to remember is that everybody who launched at >State Park, myself included, had the option to run. For >whatever reason it was we all choose not to. This did not work >to our advantage that's for sure since it would seem that we >all had to work harder for our bites than some of those who >ran. The bites were there, some big ones too, but we just >needed to work harder for fewer of them. Bottom line is this; >the decision to stay at State Park when we had to option to go >elsewhere was a bad one in my opinion. >So for this reason I would tend to say that the conditions >were the same for 100% of the field. Some made good decisions >and some did not. > >The honey hole where this tourney was won, and it was a true >honey hole this last weekend, is a place every BnT member is >very familiar with. The tourney was won from M&M! > >I guess when I think back on my experience this weekend I look >at it differently. I knew what the running requirement were >and I choose not to make a livewell that I could run with. I >choose to stay and fish State Park after 2 days, half days >actually of pre fishing with 2 or 3 bites each day. The bites >were good ones; there was the potential to get 12-15 lbs if >you got the right 3 bites. I knew the rain would change things >and I hoped it would be for the better but it wasn't the case. >I finished in the money at 11th place which made my lousy >choices easier to take but in the end I know I made some bad >decisions that didn't help me finish higher. > >Once again sorry to hear about your missing @$$, I hope it is >returned soon! > >MT > > > Very well put Mitch. BTW I`ve won alot of $ right there at the state park you just got to know the area.As a matter of fact it used to be my "secret honeyhole" untill peeps found out where I was going and then BAM! it became the new blastoff spot which totally sucked for me. ;( http://www.bassanglerprofiles.com/billsweatt.htm
