Freshwater Fishing Championship (FFC)


Recommended Posts

Hey all,
FishingMN.com is thinking about hosting a large FFC (Freshwater Fishing Championship)Invitaional on Leech Lake either late August or Early September.

It would be a multi-species tourney, Bass, Walleye, Pike, Crappie & Sunfish based on overall weight.

It will be a money tourney, $100 per team and would like to see 75-150 teams. Based on 100 teams, top prize would be $3000, and we would pay down the top 20 places based on a 100 team field as follows-
1st- $4000
2nd- $1000
3rd- $700
4th- $600
5th- $500
6th- $400
7th- $300
8th- $250
9th- $200
10th thru 19th- $100
20th-$50
(Based on a 100 team field)

We plan to have have quite a few prizes from big-name sponsors to award as well.

This is still in the planning stages and we're gauging interest.

At this point it will be an invitational out of many leagues and other tourney participants.

If you plan to participate in a league or tourney trail this year, do you have an interest in this type of Invitational tournament?

I am definately intested. I will make a vote for 8-14 or 8-21 I will be vacationing on Leech that week. I will probably make it any time as long as it's not on a LETS weekend.

I'd rather be skunked than follow the crowd!

Well,
I will not be in charge of it because I hope to fish it, but from what I've heard, the powers that be are shooting for Saturday, September 11th on Leech. I guess we'll need to wait and see what Rick decides. It would be perfect, after the majority of leagues are over and before hunting starts up (besides early goose).

Matt we can throw one event out and Waconia is the last one so we probably wont need it anyway. grin.gif

Well,
You go a week later and you are then going up against opening weekend for bowhunting and I think grouse/rabbit/squirrl opens then too...not good when you are trying to set up a sports related event. A week earlier and you run into the early goose opener, bear opener AND Labor Day weekend...a definite no-no.

So what do you have left? Sept. 11.

S,
Not really, since Muskies will not be part of the tourney. Only thing would be access issues. Where are they going out of? Or is that the one where they can fish a number of lakes?

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
