I am 2 nonboaters short right now for my club TBF of Michigan state championship roster for The Bass Boys.

I have had another person contact me about joining and fishing as a boater so i could actually use 3 nonboaters please if anyone has any extras.

Dan,

When is the TX? What are the fees associated with fishing it?

The tournament is Sunday, June 2nd on Burt / Mullett Lakes.

There is local no club dues, but you need to be a TBF state ($25) and national ($15) member, along with an FLW Outdoors member ($35) = $75.

Entry fee is $100 for the tournament. Nonboaters get half the day to run the front of the boat and pick the fishing locations if they choose during this tournament.

$175 total to fish the event unless you are already a member of any of those things above.

The top 12 (+ 13th place as the alternate) from the 2013 state championship will make the TBF of Michigan state team and fish next September in Michigan at the TBF Northern Division Championship - probably somewhere on St. Clair and/or Lake Erie for a shot at the FREE National Championship, and shots at the BFL All-American and Forrest Wood Cup.

Give me a couple of days to convince my wife, and I may be in!
I have wanted to fish TBF state champ. tx for years, and just never made it happen.

I might be in, I am fishing the bfl the day before, let me talk the wife into it as well.

Okay - thanks. Let me know. The both of you could make a couple boaters who already paid real happy, and I like happy people.

If you do a good job at sweet talking, maybe I can even find 1 more nonboater to make the boater who wants to join happy too!

djkimmel · April 29, 2013, 10:51:26 PM

I still need at least 1, maybe 2 nonboaters please.

Got it - thanks. Emailed you back. Please let me know if you're going to do it or not. I need to check with other people. Just need to know how many I need to seek.

I may be all set with nonboaters if either todd postill is able to fish as 1 or I have another member who has a friend who wants to fish as a nonboater.

stackenem · May 02, 2013, 05:30:27 PM

I am really glad to hear that.

djkimmel · May 03, 2013, 06:20:09 PM

I bet you are!!

I do have 1 new boater now that I'm waiting on with a nonboater already sending me payment, but these were both new signups from this week.
