Post by: yukonjack2 on March 17, 2008, 12:09:50 AM
Here is the latest info for MBI 2008.  Rob and I were at the meeting today, and this looks like it will be a fun event to wind down the season.  IT is the 3rd Sunday in September - I know that may not be a good day for everyone, but with enough planning....

some of the details:

Sunday 9/21  7 till 4
Lake St. Clair - Harley  ramp
We send 4 boats - 4 co-anglers
5 fish limit per boat
all legal open water
Highest total team weight wins
Total cost - $125 per Club  (<$16 each),  includes sub/pizza at wiegh in
Winning team picks the lake for next year

rules file is too big to attach.  I'll have copies a the next club meeting.

Since we moved our club date to accommodate, I should be in for this one.

If someone were to twist my arm a little bit, I could be persuaded.

If we have more than the 8 required, perhaps we should do some sort of tie breaker based on some criteria.
Maybe something like club participation or something. 
I don't know.  It's just a thought, just in case.

For a tie breaker, how 'bout a boat race?   :D :D

What is the "prize" at this event?  Bragging rights or is there a payout?

A boat race?  That's not fair!  Who can compete with the brand new 250 ProXS?  I see right through you my friend.  he he he  ;D

I thought it was a 100% payout??

I will fish it if you don't get the 8...Either Boater or Non...If you do I have no problem stepping down, because I already have a pretty full tourney schedule in September....

i'm derrek, the mbi tournament director this year.
the tournament is for bragging rights.  each member of the 8 man/woman team wins a plaque, and the team gets their club name on a large trophy that gets passed around from year to year.  there is an optional $10 money pot at the check in, that almost everyone gets into, so if all 32 boats get into the pot, there will be $320, where 75% goes to big stringer, and 25% to big fish.  so, no big money, if you win, it just pays for your tank of gas, derrek
