Fishing Challenge Idea...
So what would happen if I was to run a 2016 fishing Challenge with the original rules, no sign up fee, unlimited teams. Maybe some donated gifts disturbed as prizes and as drawings so everyone who posted a fish has a chance at a prize. My only change would be adding a Masters division that would have bigger minimum fish to enter and would not be a team challenge. Would you sign up for it?
Perhaps one of the adm guys could turn this into a poll question?
-
I believe we are going in a different direction. However feel free to sign up next year as you are welcome to join.
-
I am going to wait and see to sign up. depending but will sign up more then likely to a normal challenge!!!

Looks like the original challenge had more interest :coffee:
-
WOW...... :puke:
-
Just like a new restaurant. .....lines out the door but when the customers realise the food isnt good they leave .
-
I will sign up. Sign up is more of a reflection of how many active members tbe web site has, not who ran the contest or what rules that are used.
I prefer the 9 fish total. I cant catch a 30 inch eye to often or a 40 inch pike but i know that i can usually catch 3 quality fish where as other people are 1 trick ponies.
-
it dont matter to me what changes happen or dont. i dig the challenge! i had a tough year. my lack of participation wasnt a choice. its just how things worked out.
-
I would sign up regardless of the rules and configurations. I don't think limiting the participation is a good idea. More is better. I like that we need to post a fish to get into drawings.
-
Looking forward to the summer contest. I would also like to change it up and give a free guided trip on our boat imagine that. 300 dollars value. If you post a pic your in. Its up to you how ever you want to give it away. I like a 5 card poker hand my self. the more the merrier
-
Very nice and thank you.
-
i want in, rules are what ever, ill.fish when i can,.if i cant fish thats life an life happens.
-
Sweet Cookie! :happy1: :happy1: :happy1: Even if its a ROCKBASS ????
-
Nice!!!! :happy1:
-
I'd be in, like Boar said, i'd fish when I can. Life is getting busier by the day with kids and such. Gotta make time to get on the water....
-
I'd be in regardless. And participate more then the last couple of years
-
I'm pretty much an automatic. The original model works for me and I am open to some tinkering, but be careful we don't wreck it.

Yup....I did miss that one.....
But in my defense, I pass on reading gibberish. :spam:

In HD's defense I don't even remember the gibberish I post. Was Lee involve in a sex scandal? :scratch: did Borgie beat the sense of humor out of him? ;)

Hey guys I'm just checking in. I wish I could be more help but I can't. I have to make some moves this summer. I am moving to East Bethel. My parents (keep in mind that I am old) will be selling one of their two properties on the Lake of No Fish. Unfortunately it's the one where I keep my boat and other man toys that would be frowned upon by the townhouse association that currently tells me what I can park in my driveway and what time I need to turn my lights off. So I'm moving. I am moving my parent and myself. I find it highly possible that I will not even wet a line this summer. I do however have a little insight in the challenge experience. I will offer my opinions as a non combatant if asked but please don't take my non participation in the actual challenge as anything other than I KNOW this summer I gotta take care of business. I am not worried about the tax audits. The State of Minnesota will waste a lot of working peoples money trying to shake another dollar out of me. That stuff is just a nuisance. I need to get my folks situated. It's really going to be tough to be a non-combatant. I got so used to mopping the floor with the General in the smack down I started to take it for granted. Ill miss it and be wishing I could play. :bonk: Keep it going. I have some ideas for next winter and should be done with the moves by then. :happy1:
