So, when are the “captains” meetings starting back up? Today is Thursday you know… I’m sure Big Al needs some company!

Wando Grill, why dont you just do a Tournament within a tournament, or calcutta, for the heaviest slot redfish during the PUOSU Tournament, (If the organizers don’t mind)
Weight is a standard measurement for 99.9% of the fishing tournaments in the world. Not sure why CF.com chose length over weight for the PUOSO tournament??, not complaining; they organized it and can do what they want. I’ll still fish it.
But when they weigh in fish on TV for the IFA Redfish tour or BASS tours, they never go by length.
Your $100.00 Calcutta for the heaviest could be completely on the side and I like the idea that if atleast 10 anglers don’t buy in it’s a no go!
Im in.
wt, this is not one of the other 99.9% fishing tournaments. WG started it because back in 2006 a bunch of us on here kept bragging about how good we were and so started this little fish off. I guess winning and the bragging rights were the end result but I think a lot of us have fished it over the years because of all the good friends we made during those early days, especially after months and months and year after year of meeting at SCB&G just to hang out with Big Al and his oyster shooters. The first rule, and only rule for a while, was “no stomping on fish to make them longer” because we made length, not weight, the way to win. The payout has never been much more than enough to cover gas, lately a few gift certificates from some local restaurants and maybe some donated fishing gear. I think more than that is the same bunch of friends getting together at the same place every to catch up with one another. Some of us have talked about making it bigger but it was started to be cheap to enter and simple to win and that’s where we decided to keep it. If you want boats and thousands of dollars then you probably better go with one of the 99.9% and skip this one so you won’t have to complain about the payout, like you’ve done about some other small tournaments. Weight means you need a certified scale and not just a boga grip, just makes things complicated. If you start a calcutta for most spots then we’d have a run on sharpies like Charleston has never seen. Still trying to figure out whether or not we need drug testing…on the fish. Having said that, sharkin would probably take charge of a calcutta and whatever he wants to do would be fine with “the tournament organizers.” I’ll ask him just to make sure. Now you have the story and if you still want to fish, then we’ll meet you on the 4th.
