Yeah that's a bummer. IS doesn't like to promote tourneys unless they are a sponsor but I'm sure an event like this wouldn't have raised anyone's hair. I helped organize a little tourney on Hebgen quite a few years back now but it was a lot of fun and we didn't need to apply to the fwp to hold it. There were a few stipulations tho,... can't charge an entry fee, can't be more that $500 worth of prizes and a few other things I can't remember offhand. All that said it would be awesome to get a family/ kids tourney for the ice season. I'd be more than happy to help make it happen somewhere centrally located where as many families as possible could attend. I know everybody's weekends fill up fast but it's worth a discussion at least. I'm all ears!

Thats not true at all.. Just send the MOD of your state and they will post it...
It is a local FREE kids/family DERBY, that was basically begun to reward Snappy's customers. Chancy is on MT outdoor radio show every Saturday and mentioned it for a month. I write about it in my Daily Interlake "Howes Fishing"column for the few weeks leading up to it. It is advertised on MT FWP list of tournaments every year.I suggest if you are interested in fishing tournaments, you look for that list that is published every year by FWP in October that lists every event in the state. They don't have a budget to put ads in the paper, nor to advertise it beyond the Flathead. They get 300 plus people every year. NONE of the tournaments in MT have big advertising budgets, except Hebgen and to some degree Perch Assault...not to hard to find out about the derbies/tournaments, but they ain't necessarily gonna come knocking on your door
Just out of curiosity, who is the mod for the Montana pages?
