This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

If I can remember correctly the biggest fish of the event last year was caught minutes from the launch. The beauty is your fishing for one big fish, which Big Rideau lake is full of. Everyone has a chance!

Looking forward to this years BBMB :)

Since I was the net-man on that particular fish... I'll just say "maybe, maybe not". ;)

Sounds like a great event, I sure won't schedule a last minute event on that date.

... think a canoe would be able to get anywhere in time?

...on a more serious note how does a tourny like this work? You bring a fish back ever hour? or just when you think you have the big one?

Yes to both Michael. If you dont bring one in every hour in my opinion you are leaving the door open. If no one catches a fish that hour and you have a 13" smallie or something it was the biggest fish of that hour. If you thought oh well it is too small then you just tossed $1000 back into the drink!!

Just my thought on it.

It's much more important.

You would be wasting your time bringing in a fish every hour. Trust me, someone is always catching a fish... :lol:

4 plus pounders every hour last year to win the hour was needed. The last hour I think we had 6 4 plus lb fish weighed.

We worked really hard last year to keep the guys in the loop as fish were weighed in via text. No sense running back to weigh in with a 3.5 if you've been told there's bigger fish already weighed in.

Registration starts tomorrow am! Lots of buzz going on about it.

Well no one mentioned texts...lol. That changes the whole ball game yes. If the texts are going out then you should be able to figure out if you need to bring a fish in or not. Good idea there RJ. Keeps less traffic at the weigh in and more fish back in the drink.
