Smithville Tournament Series

With lack of participation from last year and his daughters wedding this summer Joe is is gonna take a back seat this year. He's heard from a few people asking if they will be happening or not so I figured we'll just post a thread and see who all is interested in doing a few this year. I'm not as fancy as Joe so we would either drop food out of the deal or do a little pot luck thing where everyone fishing brings part of the food for lunch. We don't have dates or permits so were pretty flexible here! Who all is interested in doing a few this year? Its a little far into May so lets see the interest for a June tournament? I'll take care of the permit if we get enough people together and once a date is set we can work on food or not.

Post June dates you would fish and lets see what we got!


Justin- June 6-7, 20-21

I will - if I can but it’s always a last minute decision. Justin you will learn very quick you can’t please everyone with a date. My opinion is pick one that works for you and whoever wants to and can will show. June watch out for Father’s Day, maybe?

If you run it, it better be far superior to Corporate Challenge! :biggrin And wear your Medal!

Yeah I think your right with Fathers day the 21st we prob should skip that weekend. I can't edited my fist post so lets see how much interest we have for June 6th!

Justin, thanks for pursuing this. I know some people are very interested.

For whatever it's worth, I (as a rule) just chose the 2nd Saturday of every month. That seemed to miss things like Crappie Camp/KCCC tournament, Graduation Weekends, Memorial Day weekend, Father's Day, Independence Day, back to school, and Labor Day. For the most part, anyway. You're always gonna have people out for graduation parties and weddings which can happen any time, but you miss the majority with those.

I can help with the permits, too. Point you in the right direction. It doesn't take that long and you get the stuff back pretty quickly. Also, on their web site you'll be able to see if there are any other tournaments going out at Smithville (and out of what ramps) and how big they might be. Call me sometime and we can discuss.

Sign me up!

count me in Ijust found out tue that my cancer is gone!!!!!!!!!!!

Super - congrats

Yep count me in.

Sounds good to me.

I'll Fish

6 boats is good enough start for me. I'll get with Joe and get a permit for June 6th!

What are the entry fees again ? It's been awhile for me!

I call mine a donation but $40.00 total? Maybe? it's just for fun.

Look at Bill raising prices! You work in public office? :biggrin

Last year was 25 + 5 for big fish, so 30 dollars all in. List of 2014 rules can be found here.

See no reason do do anything different. 30 bucks, 7 fish weigh in.

Sounds like a government employee to me! SAY NO TO PRICE HIKES!

Is the tournament still on? And was there any decision on food being provided or are we bringing a dish?

I sent in the regatta permit. No reply back yet. I suppose we can do it without the permit but I thought we should play nice!!! :Rofl

I'll start a thread for that tournament and people can post what food they are bringing

Yall still doing tourneys at smithville? I am interested.

yesterdays was cancelled, I'll try and get on for July set up this week.

Sorry I haven't been on cdc in awhile was there a July date or did I miss it?

My July was/is booked solid. Hope to get one set up for August!

Come on folks we have to have at least one Smithville Tournament before it gets too cold!

Been a busy year! the regatta process isn't to hard so anyone could get one set up if they wanted to! As of right now I have Sept 12th free. If some work stuff gets pushed I might have the 19th free as well. Other than that I'm booked till 2nd week of Nov :biggrin

Sept 12th all you guys can come fish truman in the third annual Ned Rutledge memorial tournament! ��

I donate enough money to your cause ;)

Got kinda excited to see this pop up till I saw the post was stated last year.

Justin, are you going to try and put this together this year?

Was hoping Joe would :) Since 0 of mine worked out last year lol

I won every single Smithville Crappie Tourney I fished last year!

ZERO!!!

Its hard to mess with that kinda success Bill!! :biggrin

I'll fish them as long as I dont have to work
