South Metro Slop Hawgs Tournaments


Recommended Posts

If you are interested in fishing a few laid back weeknight tournaments this summer consider fishing with the South Metro Slop Hawgs! This is a small tournament series that will feature small entry fees and a jackpot style payback. These will be very laid back and enjoyable events where we hope the tournament participants will be able to meet some new people as well as learn a few new things about bass fishing. All skill level anglers are welcome!!

Schedule for July and August:

Crystal Lake – July 7th - 5:00 pm-9:00 pm

Prior Lake – July 21st - 5:00 pm-9:00 pm

Lake Marion – August 4th - 5:00 pm- 8:30 pm

Crystal Lake – August 18th - 5:00 pm- 8:30 pm

If we find that people are interested in fishing more events, we will accommodate for the interest by extending our schedule into September.

There will be a $10 entry fee per boat. You can fish by yourself or with two people in the boat. The payout will be per boat, not per individual.

These will be weigh-in tournaments. There is no length limit on boats as long as they have a functioning livewell.

If you are interested in fishing these events please send an email to [email protected] so we can send you a more detailed spreadsheet regarding the tournaments.

If you are not able to send an email for confirmation, that is fine, please just show up by 4:45 pm on the designated tournament date so we can take care of the entry fees and give you a quick run down of a few rules.

Additionally, if you are not able to arrive at 5:00 pm due to other obligations, please just call either me or Sam when you get to the lake so we can confirm your attendance.

Bob Cell: 651-276-1910

Sam Cell: 612-306-2675

If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to contact us through the email address, phone or here on FM.

Thanks!

- Sam and Bob

Boat is out of commision, but wondering if anyone wants to enter but doesn't have a co-angler? Willing to split all costs, bait, gas, beer etc. I work in the S. Metro and this would be perfect. Not a pro, but can hold my own.

St.Croix: any chance there are people who need a partner?

Haven't had any response from another person that needs a partner. You can fish by yourself too if you would like to. I will keep you informed if I find someone that needs a partner. Also, you mentioned "bait" in your list of costs, in these tournaments only artificial baits/lures will be allowed.

Tator 2k, For right now we are going to have them on wednesdays. If we find that a majority of people feel the need to move them to a different day during the week, then we may take action. However, as you can imagine, everyone has different schedules, and no matter what day we have it on, it probably wont work for someone...

    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
    • The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there.  About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
    • It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway.  Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work.  You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water.  When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
    • We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity. 
    • I've been out on the flats. It's like being on a different planet
