Title: Open Tournaments
Post by: Big dreams on July 03, 2013, 09:25:21 PM
Where is the best place to find local open tx?  I know in the Fall that there are a lot of opens listed on this site.  Reason I ask is there have been a few on Wixom Lake in Gladwin County that I have not heard about anywhere.  Not sure if there is another section on the site or a separate site that list these.

Not any one place at the moment. It's wide open. I'd love to take advantage of it. I haven't found the right software/budget/time to do it yet though I own the domains for it. It is near the middle of my todo list.

I have noticed that opens and things are not getting the word out quite as good as they have in the past. Scattered or not at all. They can post them on here for free and I do try to remind tournament operators to use the Link to Calendar link at the bottom after you create the post so that it is easier to find by just looking at the forum calendar first.

Guess I need to do a better job of promoting that feature for now.

If you run into any of those events, please mention GreatLakesBass.com to the tournament director. Tell them they can post their tournaments for free and link them to the calendar so that hundreds of anglers per day have a chance to find them! Thanks!

Will do DK.  It would be nice to have a full list in one place.  I think that alone would gather a ton of net traffic.

Me too. Just need a week or two of spare time and some good software I haven't found yet. I keep looking every so often.

Meanwhile, if you talk to tournament directors, ask them to please post their tournament information on GreatLakesBass.com.
