CPR Catfish Contest (open to everyone) KOTC Shootout

[Gordie]

Dtro can I borrow a boat cushion

[DTro]

Ok, here's the deal guys.

I've decided that in pursuant of the fairness in weather act, I am going to amend the rules as such:

The 2 days that each contestant has chosen can either be predetermined up until the first contest day OR the day of up until the control item is released online (approx 6:15am each day).

This should make it easier for everyone to adjust plans if necessary due to inclement weather or family plans.

So basically, I need to know by 6:15am each day who is fishing. A simple email to [email protected] with the simple phrase, "I'm fishing the shootout tomorrow (or today if between midnight and 6).

I sure hope that made sense.

I have both days for the majority of everyone already. I will leave as is for now, but it will be acceptable to change as needed.

[Alagnak]

Great idea DTRO, thanks. Now to the garage to work on the motor so I can maybe still fish this.

[Slowhand]

Little bent I miss this again because of work(overtime); good luck fellows.

[Shack]

For the prize structure of this contest I went with a 45% 35% 20%

14 contestants

$140-5% paypal fee= $133 (BTW, this $7 fee is well worth the convenience of doing this all electronically in my opinion.)

1st Place $60

2nd Place $47

3rd Place $26

[rushing]

Hit the river about 1am but didnt get to fish for long before the stupid lightening ran me off. Sucks too cuz it was a perfect night up until then.

[DTro]

We found the perfect solution to those "blowing away" control items.

Blow, I say Blow....is that all you got? You call yourself Windy?

[MinnesnowtaWild]

LOL

[Gordie]

DTRO where did you find that Arrowhead? imagine the bow it took to shoot the arrow

[Scott K]

I would show you what I had but I didn't catch anything.

[Gordie]

no points for skeetewr bites

[Scott K]

They were the worst I have see them all year last night, and my Thermocell was empty.

[DTro]

We had bad skeeter last night too. Not so much tonight. Had the most action fish wise tonight in a long time. It felt pretty good.

Good company too, thanks Rob!

[HotPocket]

Got a good start going.

[Whisker Warrior]

I got one tonight that went about 20lbs but missed two that would have gave me more confidence going into tommorrow since i know Jake is already in upgrade mode ......back at in the am...

[pureinsanity]

Nice Chatting with you Darren. Glad you guys got some fish in tonight. HKK and I only had my channel and flat and his gar. All in all a slower night then normal, but still a good time...

[MinnesnowtaWild]

I shoulda came out tonight Nick...The gf wanted to hang out but she passed out early so I have been sitting around wishing I would have went out after I got off the lake tonight.

Nice Channel dude...and Darren glad you had a good night. Same to WW.
