Title: Morning Tournaments S/E Michigan??
Post by: dartag on June 19, 2014, 06:10:37 AM
Any other morning tournaments besides the NBAA Thursday Morning Series.   Since I have my days free now they are fun to fish.  The weeknight lakes have been a zoo this year.   Maybe I am just getting old... ;D

I"m just as old.  I almost never fish on the weekends.  Too many amateurs launching and retrieving boats.  Too many people that like to come real close and see what lure I'm using. 

Maybe we need to start a club for weekday old farts?

I'm game for a day time trail for old farts. Let me know if I can be some help.

Pete used to do one on Tuesdays also but was only getting 6 to 8 boats.  NBAA payout isnt good enough with that few boats.  You could hook up with CFB or just start your own.  Im sure you would get a few.  Try Fridays as a decent amount of people have Fridays off.  I can only do Thursdays, though if anyone did a night tournament id probably hit that also.  Mornings are nice, all of the skiers are at work.  Also, you may be able to add some new lakes, ie Crescent, because i know i could get us more boat parking.  Other people could do the same with other lakes.  If it is a small turnout, and you just pay 2 or 3 at 100%, you'd have great payouts and be small enough to fit at most ramps
