I think there are enough guys from Central Ca and NorCal that fish swimbaits to make something like this work up this way. The problem would be finding somebody to put the thing together. Somebody tried a swimbait tourny at Pedro last year and I heard it turned out ok but it wasn't a winner take all format. If 10K is on the table a lot of people would come out of the woodwork to fish. How about a swimbait only circuit, maybe 5-6 tournaments from November to April. That would definately prove who the best swimbait guys are around. And not just a one day shootout for a bunch of cash, anybody could get lucky and catch a big fish in this format. It would be cool but I doubt it will ever happen. Jake J

It does sound inviting...I am not a "Big Bass Fisherman", But then aren't we all when we go out fishing hoping to catch a big bass? I have only been on the lake like 3 days straight last year prefishing and fishing the Bass Fed event. I ended up with a 9th place (out of about 45) "dragging worms" lol....
To have a chance at 10 grand for a $200 entry is cool. But as I read the thread on Westernbass southern board it does sound like there are many holes in it that need to be addressed.
One of those "holes" is the fact that an local will have plenty of prefishing time to find the hot spots ....
"Maybe the guy who catches the 13.05 in your scenario fished a big fish pattern all day, focusing on 3 key areas in deep water knowing that teener fish lived on those spots. Maybe he got one bite all day, executed on it and caught the fish."
Rob, I would put money on this scenario being a local that fished the place regularly.
I am one of those guys that will probably not fish this event (that is if Ron would allow me to fish it from my kickboat ...lol)because I am boatless. So all I am doing is giving an opinion.

I LOVE this idea! It IS for the BIGGEST BASS, that's the whole idea, RIGHT? Winner take all and the rest jest wishin' they was the winna! I'm going to fantasy "fish" both the southern end saddles of the island/shoreline and that island point! I'll be attempting to lose a ROF 16 Megastrike and Kick-n-Bass Trout Flavor SLATHERED Hudd by fishing it like a football jig from the shore to 40 feet deep....... Wish Me Luck!! -- Alex ><> ><> ><> p.s. Let me know how I did.....(and how many Hudds I lost...) I much prefer it when a woman leaves me, for then I know the mistake is hers. - Charles Bukowski

I love the format and the whole idea around it...I can't even entertain making that tournament...unless something dramatic happens here in the next month. Even then, I gotta think 50 boats will fill up in an hour, and likely wouldn't be in a position to even sign up.
If I could make it happen, I would probably hit my boy Dan Frazier up. He's got a boat in Arroyo Grande area that I'd try to borrow, and his truck! LOL
Jeremy, we'd have to really be lucky to come up with two boats, two trucks, and somehow sign up and make the list, etc.
And since I've never been to Casitas, I don't catch big fish (Matt Peters = SDM = Single Digit Master), and there is an off limits right before....I will likely re-arrange my schedule to fish the Southern BASS Open Series (Santee Cooper and Guntersville baby!) vs. coming out West for a slug fest..
