Thanks yes it was a great day. Congrats on that beast i tell you one thing i think the trophy laker size for me should be 30 inchs cause im not catching any bigger.

PGKris · « **Reply #131 on:** Mar 13, 2007, 02:04 AM »

I agree marshrat. The laker trophy size is barely attainable here in BC.

Congrats to all the Ice Shanty members who entered fish this year.

I was impressed by the sizes and numbers of fish filling the boards. 8)

Good luck to all with the remainder of the icefishing season.

Thanks to LoneWolf, the moderators and IceShanty for a well run tournament.

Awesome Tourney Lonewolf..Iceshanty and all of the participating sponsors... I look forward to seeing all the pictures and taking my chance at a weekly drawing....

Thanks to all the member who enter fish... I enjoy seeing the variety and size of them all....
Keep up the good work and I'm gonna take first in something this summer...

JiggerMan · « **Reply #134 on:** Mar 13, 2007, 09:22 PM »

i thought you could only be in once for a trophy drawing any way..... I dont hink it was ever listed by species before for those who qualified.

Just curious how you can get in multiple times for single species. I got several pickerel over 24" and 8 perch 14" or bigger.

Could of i been 12 times for the trophy drawing.

Why were some fish that were on there that looked like they were bigger than existing fish not there anymore.

what happened to the only post the pics if they contend with the lead or a place in the top three. I got pics erased so what gives.

PGKris · « **Reply #135 on:** Mar 13, 2007, 09:28 PM »

Jiggerman I also did not know this. I could have been in the trophy drawings at least a dozen times. Ten 24"+ rainbows that I can remember iceing as well as my last burbot at a bit over 33" Gotta read the rules better I guess 8)

LoneWolf · « **Reply #136 on:** Mar 14, 2007, 07:34 AM »

In the Trophy drawing if you have multiple posted "trophy" entries it will just increase your odds of being drawn. Once your name is pulled you are out of the drawing.

JiggerMan · « **Reply #137 on:** Mar 14, 2007, 06:31 PM »

LW,

I knew that once your name was drawn you were out of the drawings for the other prizes. I did not know that you could have your name in for the drawings more than once no matter how many different trophy fish you caught or even how many of the same species you got that were trophy size.

I guess i will know for next year.

PGKris · « **Reply #138 on:** Mar 14, 2007, 07:53 PM »

No sense crying about it now....but wait till next year....

I've already started a file on rule updates for next season. Any flaws that I have found in this past seasons tourney will be rectified.

seaweed01 · « **Reply #141 on:** Mar 15, 2007, 01:09 PM »

Lonewolf,

A person should only be able to be entered in the trophy drawing once in each
species. You are only allowed to win one prize in each species. Just my opinion.

PGKris · « **Reply #142 on:** Mar 15, 2007, 01:11 PM »

I don't think it was a flaw....most just didn't look.....can't rectify my reading abilities

BottomDweller · « **Reply #143 on:** Mar 15, 2007, 01:25 PM »

i am also of the opinion that 44" is not attainable enough of a trophy laker size... 10" shorter would be more realistic. ...since we're all airing our opinions here

Agreed 34 inchs would be much better I might have a chance to catch one

Thriller · « **Reply #145 on:** Mar 15, 2007, 07:48 PM »

I'm sure Lonewolf will assess trophy sizes based on history...as a matter of fact, it wouldn't surprise me, as organized and diligent as he is, if he had a spreadsheet / database with a number of years. A couple years back, I had two walleye that would have passed as trophies this year (one might have been a bit shy but close), but this year, there were very few walleye entries.

I wonder about this thought of multiple trophies though...immediately coming to mind is what if an entrant catches a trophy fish relatively early in the tourney, then later catches trophy size fish, but smaller than the first. If you posted the first one, the smaller ones are no longer eligible for entries. Just a thought. One way around that is to catch a fish early, enter it to get in the weekly drawings, then organize the rest of your photos, but don't enter them until near the end of the tourney and, if you have multiple trophies, enter them in increasing size so each one doesn't remove the other from the tourney. While that could be a strategy to follow, I could see Lonewolf not getting any sleep that final week if enough guys did that. Considering how much this has grown each year, I personally wouldn't want that kind of stress at the end.
