FD'S SUMMER SLAM CONTEST with a twist. 2025

FishinDaddy reply :

After the success of the State vs State we did this spring, I thought we could do another one, the Summer Slam.

Now being someone who has a favorite way to fish, I was thinking that we could learn something as well as have a fun contest.

Here is the twist. Your score is the combined score of 3 fish, 1 each from the below listed methods . This will force us, or at least me, to put down my favorite rig and fish something else.

METHOD 1 - fish caught with a soft plastic T-rig/C-rig/swimbait.

METHOD 2 - fish caught with a topwater Frog/popper/devils horse/ ect.

METHOD 3 - fish caught with a crankbait/spinnerbait/hard swimbait.

Final scoring with be the combined score of your largest fish, in the time frame of the contest, caught using each of the above methods.

RULES

1. This is for FUN...

2. There is 1 division. Any Black Bass that has a State Record weight is allowed (largemouth, smallmouth, spotted, ect).

3. This contest runs from daybreak on July 1, 2008 to sunset on August 15, 2008.

4. Artificial bait ONLY. If you are sight fishing, the fish must be hooked inside the mouth. All fish must be caught in PUBLIC fishing areas. No private stocked ponds.

5. Scoring of the fish shall be completed as follows:

Example

fish weight = 10.5 lbs (my pb)

state record Fl Largemouth= 17.27 lbs

FW / SR x 100 = your score

10.5/17.27x100 = 60.80 rounded to 2 decimals

In order for your fish to count, you must submit a picture, the state record weight for the state the fish was caught in, and an accurate weight of the fish. Your fish must be submitted within one week of being caught. (No sandbagging) You may submit as many fish as you want as long as subsequently caught fish are larger. All fish must be submitted before 7 am on August 16, 2008.

6. You can be disqualified for unsportsmanlike behavior. The definition of "unsportsmanlike" is completely at the discretion of myself and the moderators.

7. Entry Fee - You must post your intention to compete along with a picture of your SMALLEST bass on this thread. You must have submitted your entry prior to midnight June 30, 2008.

I wish I could have videod the strike. It was the first cast with that rapala and I honestly thought my bait was malfunctioning.

Peasey- Link was broken, I went in and tried to fix it but couldn't figure out where it was broken, please re-post. Thanks

.dsaavedra. reply :

this contest sounds fun!

i have one question though...is your final score invalidated if you dont catch one fish from each method?

Entry Fee:

(you could say i wasnt too thrilled with this one :)

FishinDaddy reply :

Dave,

No, you just have a lower score. Since you can only count your (1) largest fish from each method.

.dsaavedra. reply :

ok.

so, theoretically, if i were to catch a 30lb bass on a texas rig, i wouldnt have to catch a fish on a frog or crankbait but i could still win the contest.

lol...i wish : ;D
