Title: Interest in an earlier Sunday tournament
Post by: Frank on August 31, 2018, 12:54:59 AM
Next season I want to do a Sunday series that fishes from 5ish til no later than 11am.  How many would be interested?  I like weekend events but I do not want to be out there when the lakes get crazy.  There is no reson I can think of that we wait for the sun to come up to fish.

I might be game. Especially if I retire.

Retired guys fish during the week.   Fished 2 weekend tournys this year and swear I will not fish anymore.   Lakes are a Zoo.   Hope it works out for ya.

I'm retired.  I almost never fish on saturdays. Sunday is for church for me.
My club fishes Saturdays before Memorial Day and after Labor Day. We fish weekdays in between.

If an early start is what you want it will limit which lakes you can fish. Some launches are not open at 5:00 am.

At certain times of the season there's also the issue of "safe light" blast offs.
