Title: Anyone sign up for the opens ?
Post by: LAPORTE on January 13, 2011, 04:51:11 PM
Call me the luckiest guy around. My wife signed me up for the northern open going out of Ohio in Aug.

So Ill be a co again which is good. The more I fish from the back the more that i learn. So Ill be looking for a practice partner. and a camp ground to chill out at... I'm a happy dude right now....  ;D  gonna be a long winter.

Hey Phil, no Everstart for me. I was thinking about it but I liked the BASS tourney last year.

I signed up for the Sandusky tournament. This will be my first co angler type tournament. I hope to learn a lot about fishing the pond. I'm supper excited. Camping is a good idea. I'm sure there is a lot of places out there. ;D ;D ;D Can't wait!

Great. See you there. Maybe I'll come up and fish Belleville with you one day this summer before then.

COOL - so I get it, our home waters, our type of fishing, .... Bassmaster, what is the advantage over FLW ? Payouts ? entry fee? membership dues ? advancement to all- american ? how many boats given ?  I have lots of questions ? Hope someone with experience can answer /??  ???

I would have loved to fish it as a boater - but not any chance of getting in just fishing 1 of them.  I would have fished all 3, but the James River??  Yuk.  Oneida is awsome, so it may have been worth it to fish 2 out of 3 in good places.  Too late now though...

Sandusky is a great place to fish out of.  Close to the islands  - but still within range of Detroit and Vermillion (and other points east)

 I'm signed up for all three,but at this point,it looks like I may not be able to fish the first one on the James River.I'm good to go as far as the other two.I'm looking forward to the Oneida event,and of course Lake Erie.I have a buddy on here that's signed up for all three of the central opens,he's already fished the first one down at Lake Toho.

Anybody know if the location of the registration and meeting has been announced yet?
Title: Re: Anyone sign up for the opens ?
Post by: Eric on July 03, 2011, 09:45:50 PM
I assume so.  My packet is in my truck and I am not.  If I remember tomorrow after practice, I'll grab it and look.  You are talking Sandusky right?
Title: Re: Anyone sign up for the opens ?
Post by: dashaver63 on July 04, 2011, 04:14:09 AM
Yes, Sandusky Bay. The packet I got and the BASS website still have it as TBD. Maybe they will announce it this week at the James River Open.
