No Michigan Stren in 2008. What a bummer

[motocross269]

No kidding cast and blast...Lucky you and I were on the same pattern that tourney or one of us would have called called foul.  I went back to the hotel that night thinking "Cool I actually drew someone that is on the same fish I am on in Burt Lake", and then tourney morning nothing.  I really couldn't say a whole lot because I prefished with bshaner and I didn't want to give any of his spots up until I was sure he wasn't making the run to Burt Smallies...Here today gone tommorow

I've never personally fished Champlain, But a fellow clubmember of mine has and there are so many patterns to fish there, it's unbelievable. Most, if not all, of the productive water will be open water. Either over grass flats or rock. I would love to get there sometime but thats a big drive and I'm not as tolerant of driving like that anymore.

So I'm having trouble deciphering the flw site.  WHEN exactly do I have to be registered and paid up if I want to fish Lake Champlain??  Can anyone help?

[dashaver63]

FLW hasn't announced registration dates yet. It'll be sometime in December. If you pay the deposit, FLW will give you the date it will charge your credit card for the balance.

Waterfoul, keep in mind if you are fishing the BFLs to make the regional, that Champlain ends the weekend of the Sandusky tourny.

Actually fellas, I am shooting for ONE tournament next season.  My job situation is so up in the air these days I'm sure it's all I'll be able to afford (helps to have family local to the event).  If things should change for the better between now and then I may shoot for a second or 3rd one... but I'm not counting on it at all.
