Whitebass!!!! Contest!!!!!

Ok, remember I want at least 10 guys truly interested to participate this year so tell your friends.

The contest will run from May 1st. of June 1st. of 2009

There will be a small "Tourney Logo" that I will make and will post in printable format, You will need to have this noticable in all pictures of WB

You can take pictures of one big fish at a time next to a read-able tape measure

You must have at least 5 posts on the forum to make your first entry

This will only be based on size (length) on which I and the mods will judge on each entry (Will normally go with the benefit of doubt)

There will also be a big fish prize for the month and every week

The big fish will be length and not weight

There is no size limit or entry limit

The big fish pictures should be pictured with a pinched tail as shown in the ODNR Regs, if your tail isn't pinched it's your loss.

This will be based on the honor system. If you post fish pictures I would hope you would also have a report to go with it in other forums so we know where the fish was caught, It must be caught in Ohio and if any moderators have a "fishy" feeling about your pictures or report we have the right to inquire about the report.

Administration participation: We will all be participating


As far as prizes go:

I changed my mind if we want weekly prizes I'll have to get at least 3 donations of some small stuff such as lures, misc tackle, etc.

I have decided there will be no entry fee and there will be a prize for the whole tourney, big fish included.

Besides bragging rights of winning the tourney the main prizes will be suprises.



Realtive Look Of Patch:
Anyone can write on any piece of paper the following:

"Ohio Outdoors.org Whitebass Contest"
"(USERNAME)"
"Week of (~)-(~)
"Code-New one relased weekly"

If all goes well with this tourney we will have more so inform your friends and family! If you have questions, comments, or concerns I would be happy to answer them or make a change possibly in the rough draft of rules above.
Thanks,
Jonny

Sounds good to me, and this will actually be a good way to get people to join the site.

sounds good i love white bass down in fremont

we generally fish as a family, so here's the question:
kim is not registered on here, but lets say she nails a big old white bass, can i post it on here for her, or should i have her register and comment on 5 posts herself? we look at all the posts daily together at least once then i am on here alot in the evening and some of my posts are her comments. what the hek..i'll have her register, that way we get another member and she will think up some cool name. so now the question is: what about the boys?

Ha kids, hell yeah, you can turn a whitebass in for them!!!

I think it is really cool, the whole family thing, I think she may be better off with the new name, not bias or anything, just of you let one person do it then they all do

Ready for this tourney!!!

If you guys are serious about donating items for this, I'd be happy to let you know where to ship it I'm going to try and get as many people as I can

"Code-Git-R-Done"

im not in the contest but i was just wondering what kind of donations you got

I'm not sure what they ended up with... I had mentioned donating a few items, but I haven't been on in a while... ohiofisher, saugeye 1, or bugeyedjig will probably know more right now than I can tell you.

I posted in the Fish Ohio thread that I went WB fishing tonight, and I got a 16" award winner. Hopefully you'll let me slide on not knowing the code for this week.

It's good
We had no donations
I have it covered if we get some more entries

No entries=Cancellation
