State Vs State Final rules and current list of entries 2024


fishing user avatarFishinDaddy reply : 

RULES

1.  This is for FUN...

2.  There are 2 divisions.   Largemouth and Smallmouth.  You must declare that you are fishing one or both before March 1, on this thread.

3.  This contest runs from daybreak on March 1, 2008 to sunset on May 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 = 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 May 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 best Avid look-a-like photo prior to March 1.  You may play without a look-a-like photo, but you will be penalized 5 points.  Avid is awarded 1 bonus point, just because he is Avid.

8.  I will start a new thread on March 1 with the official list of competitors.

Directors Note-----Have fun, catch fish, and post your results......

That's my avid picture when he was younger than

Anyone that has seen a picture avid has posted

of his beautiful wife would realize that NO ONE

that pretty and smart would be married to him!

fishing user avatarLow_Budget_Hooker reply : 

Sorry guys, as mentioned earlier, Dirk and I cannot play as we have ice up here.  If it was run during a time of year we could play too, that would be great but,....I ain't ice fishin',lol.

F-daddy, Did you want the old thread locked or pulled?  We can do either for you.

That's my point, we'll just have fish starting to move when it ends.  

May 15th is the end, not the beginning.

UH OH!

Competing against Fourbizz is bad enough, but now KU_Bassmaster.

There's only one big bass in all of Kansas and KU caught her TWICE! eek.gifscared.gif


fishing user avatarFishinDaddy reply : 

LBH,

just lock that old thread.  Me might need to refer back to some of the pre-tourney smack talk when this is done.

If everyone plays together well during this one, maybe we can do it again in Aug/Sep when we have 90* water and y'all have the advantage.


fishing user avatarclipper reply : 

Count me in.  Largemouth and spotted too if they count.

FD- Moved and locked ;)

We aren't looking for the "advantage" , we just wish it was held when everyone can play :(  We are frozen in up here.


fishing user avatarsurfer reply : 

pond hopper,

That is the deepest i have ever seen anybody wade fish.  You are up to your chin.      ;) ;D


fishing user avatarJCrzy4Bass reply : 

I may not catch anything, but I got confidence. Water is still pretty cold in Nova and pre-spawn probably won't start til' early-mid April here. But I will work that jig/dropshot/and deep crank to try and find one of these largies in a wintering hole. Wicked cold fronts here lately, snow, rain, and sleet yesterday and again tonight.

Anyway I'm in. Here's my contribution and dedication to the man AVID!

Oh yea, put me down for largemouth.  Smallmouth bite is non-existent right now in this area.

so fishin daddy, this still confuses me, if the contest ends on may 15, then why do you say that all fish must be submitted before april 16?


fishing user avatarFish Man reply : 

i think it was a just a typo and he ment may 16


fishing user avatarFishinDaddy reply : 

OK, dsa.  I think all the typo's have been corrected.   You are borderline "unsportsmanlike".  In the future don't point out all of the directors errors before the tourney starts...........it's just plain irritating..

i hope you are not serious because that would be "unsportsmanlike" of you. i was honestly confused, and i wanted some clarification. i was not trying to get on your case for making a typo.


fishing user avatarFishinDaddy reply : 

It's all good dave. I was just messing with you.  See above rule #1.


fishing user avatarutahbasser reply : 

i want to be in for both sides. but i don't understand the look a like part of it. what do i need to do?


fishing user avatarFishinDaddy reply : 

"post your best Avid look a like photo..(Ray Charles glasses or shadowy self portrait or just plain fuzzy pic)"

This was the original definition of the entry fee.  We have a crusty old guy, legend really, who signature is these HUGE sunglasses and  really bad photos.  They are usually taken with a camera phone, grainy, out of focus, shadows over his face....post your worst photo of you and a fish and you will probably qualify.

I don't have an true "avid style," pic so I used a little cut and paste license... don't want to start off with a penalty.  (and had to get the blur just right)

fishing user avatarPerfect Hook Set reply : 

I thought avid meant enthusiastic

Though I believe this should be good for my entry fee

This was taken 5 minutes after my buddy caught a 6lb LMB  about 20 feet from me!

"meh its a bass"

Too many of these put the fish as close to the camera as possible pictures.

Post length and Girth if possible?

I always hold my fish out just because it makes for a GREAT photo. However I am always honest with the REAL weight of the fish..

Example... This bass was only 3LBS 10 OZ. When I showed this fish to a few of my fishing buddies on the digital camera they guessed it was a 5 LBER.

Got a problem, dont have any good "avid pics on camera, and the lakes here are very frozen and will be until after the start of the competition on March 1. Is the entry fee due by then, and can i use a picture that i can take now without a fish.


fishing user avatarLong Mike reply : 

Second request.  Please remove my name from the list of participants.  My first request was deleted.  Avid has elected to no longer be a member of this site.  I have elected not to participate in this contest.

You think you got it bad.  Heck, I never even entered the d**n thing and I'm listed as a participant.

The only problem is that the winds on both lakes are supposed to be 20 to 30 mph.  Hope you bring your surf board.   ;D  

Add me to the Largemouth category.  I'm game!  

Also, is everyone working on the 'honor system' here?  I'll have a date stamp on my pics, but how do we know that no one is digging up 5 year old pics?
