Wow!!!! Only 12 entrants and we are halfway through the first month of WCW???

There is some good weather shaping up and we all know that means & are out there for the taking and its only going to improve.

Since you need to be entered before you catch your fish, don't wait. Join in the fun!

Just donated.

My wife asked what the donation was for, told her it was part of a world wide initiative to help capture the dreaded Yellow Tailed Oompa-Loompa Tuna fish and its predecessor the Williy Wonka White Sea Bass. She said she was proud of me.

I'm proud of you, George, and you haven't even caught one yet (E for effort, though ). Last year someone won who lives in your neck of the woods; so why not you?




Seriously, though, I don't understand the lack of entrants this year. The entry fee is dirt cheap and everyone can use some incentive for more time on the water (great excuse for the wives and significant others ).

A couple of great reasons to play:

#1 It's loads of fun with a microscopic investment. You'd spend that in ten minutes at a bar and forget about it the next day, right?

#2 While some play to win, it really doesn't matter where you place. Well, I digress, it will to whomever is next to you in the ratings. I don't care if you're 25th or 26th, if your friend catches a damn 10 lb Halibut, you watch---you'll be fuming! That next 12 lb Halibut you catch might as well be 50 lbs; you'll be over the freakin' moon (rubbing it in)! You can choose to either play to win the whole shebang or simply beat your friends by one place. Either way, it's loads of fun for practically nothing. Not to mention, I can guarantee that, every fish you catch during the year of the tournament will be more exciting than if you weren't; please stay on, please stay on, please stay on!

#3 In my professional opinion, the biggest reason of all to play is to become a better angler, of course. The more opportunities you get to fish, the more you should learn. Whether you want to learn more about catching Halibut, Yellowtail or White Sea Bass is up to you.

My competitive days are a thing of the past, but If some how, some way, I can scrounge up twenty dollars in change---I might even donate to the Jim Day fund myself. Can I put my $20 on Sharon Kayak? If she gets a pedal kayak---watch out!

The original idea was to make those moments of excitement every time you see color to be multiplied 10 fold.....that and being a part of something collectively very cool.

[jorluivil]

I'm thinking the odds are betting here than in Vegas

'My competitive days are a thing of the past'.........I knew that was some serious

This will be fun...................Can you imagine besting 'The Darkhorse' in a fishing competition???? There is nothing to lose and everything to gain.

[roadx]

Roadx,
Here's another one:
http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/s...ead.php?t=5642

Caught in Alaska...
but still a nice fish,
so I guess THE DARKHORSE does have some halibut skills...

[THE DARKHORSE]

After all the Yellowtail and White Sea Bass I've caught, this is still my favorite fish and photo. As a matter of fact it's been my screen saver since I caught her. She gave an incredible, trophy fight, and I'll never forget the sight of her at color.

To be quite honest, after catching a few in the forty pound class prior, I was terrified when I saw her below the kayak. All fish look bigger when they're 10' below, but she looked silly at depth. Subconsciously, I think I was hoping she would freak out and buck back to the bottom and cut me off or something. I'll just say I wasn't looking forward to sinking the gaff.

I guess I'm as retired from Halibut fishing as I am from competition. After all, every day you fish is a competition if you asked me; a competition with yourself and all the variables associated with the ocean.

It's a shame Halibut don't put up much of a fight; until they're huge that is. Well, at least while they're on the line anyway. I don't think it's a secret; I'd much rather catch White Sea Bass and Yellowtail.

I just want to get nervous when I see a fish at color again---like old times. Let the games begin!

I just want to get nervous when I see a fish at color again---like old times.

It sure does intensify that flow of adrenalin! Who is next!!! If you like the idea of WCW being around next year ............sign up for this year!

[JoeBeck]

I'll contribute to the tournament pot. With my work schedule and now a newborn not sure how much I'll get out fishing local waters (reason most of my post are vacations ). But all who frequent this board on a regular basis should join and support WCW $25 bucks, not bad. Better to submit your fish here right? as it does mean you got a WHOPPER!

Of course admin could put a lock so only individuals in the tournament can see the post, that way to see the good fishing reports you have to be part of it

Anyway, I have a couple fishing trips planned this year already. Don't fear the competition!

[sharonkayak]

Ok. watch out boys... joined your contest. so now you have to compete against the girls!!!

going out tomorrow to start accumualting some points. hahahaha

Ill be speeding around in my new turbo fins...

[fishstew]

I'm in.....Now lets hope I can get something good this weekend....
