MoneyPike.....

So..if we had a contest of sorts would you be interested?

 Let's say..a Biggest Fish of 2012 at Taltson contest.
And let's say that IF we were to do this, a..um.."donation" of $50 per entry would be "appreciated".
And then let's say that the "donations" would be given to whoever worked the hardest to bring in the biggest fish...ya know..a "donation" for all the BenGay the winner is going to need.

 Are we understanding each other?

The way we'd judge it? Photo proof. 2 shots. one on the stick and one against a pre-printed ruler decal that I'll have in the boats. Straight on shots.
  The stick: a STRAIGHT FORWARD NON-ANGLED shot.
 The ruler shot: a STRAIGHT DOWN OVER-THE-FISH non-angled shot showing the fish and the ruler. ANY ANGLED SHOTS WILL BE DISQUALIFIED. ANY FISH SHOT WITHOUT BOTH SHOTS WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.
  No fish under 47 shall be entered....don't even bother putting it on the bump decal after your vertical measurement if it doesn't hit 47+ !!! A 46 is NOT going to win this. We all know that.
  We are going to be honest and honorable about this. None of us are hurting for the $50...so we don't expect anyone to try to cheat.
  If we get enough people involved ( starts at 10 people) in this " donation", we can call it a game and start the process.
  Do the math... if we theoretically have 60 gueats all kick in a "donation" of $50 for the pool, someone walks out with a 3k "donation" for their BenGay.

 Now are ya interested?

 There's a 3k fish out there. Do you think you've got the guts to bring her in????? Contact me: Jamie@customfish.com to enter.

Put your money where your toothy mouth is....

Does anyone feel like participating in a Largest Fish of 2012 ..um.."Competition"? I'm ju$t $ayin. Contact me jamie@customfish.com . If we get enough people interested then this may be worth the effort.
