Title: Clear H2O Tackle Opens - SW Michigan
Post by: jgip087 on March 08, 2014, 12:11:08 PM
Clear H2O Tackle is the new title sponsor for 2014.  $60 entry, includes big bass ($35 if fishing alone or with someone under 16). 100% cash payback, prizes, plus 2 big fish payouts per tournament.  All tournaments are 6:30-1:30.

Sunday, May 25 Paw Paw Lake (Channel Launch)
Saturday, July 26 Pipestone Lake
Saturday, August 9 Diamond
Saturday, August 23 Juno Lake (20 boat maximum, extra vehicles will park at Clear H2O Tackle and will be shuttled to launch.  Weigh-in will also occur at Clear H2O Tackle).

I utilized the new Michigan online tournament registration system and Louie Stout's registry of Northern Indiana/SW Michigan tournaments to create a schedule with minimal conflicts.  

Also doing 2 late-season smallie opens. $50 entry, 100% payback for those.  Sunday October 19th and Saturday November 1st. St. Joe River Benton Harbor, DNR Launch across from Tackle Haven. 7:30-2:30.

The weather looks absolutely beautiful for Sunday. I hope to see you at Paw Paw! The weather should be cool enough to keep most of the pleasure boaters at home, but warm enough to cause the BIG bass to bite!

Channel ramp. 6:30-1:30. $60 entry (cash only), $35 if fishing alone or with someone 16 or younger.

Launch: 53 degrees Wind: ESE 2 MPH
Weigh-In: 74 degrees Wind: SSW at 5 MPH

I don't get how fishing by yourself or someone under 16 allows you to only pay half the entry fee but you can still win the entire pot.  That just doesn't make any sense at all.
