We're handicapped with one-eyed TGF as our leader and a loudmouth kid as backup!! Common now!! We are in serious trouble!!

Landlocked Salmon, Brook Trout and Splake should be added.

Go TEAM MAINE!!!

first thanks many times over for this site and tourney.

i have one simple question. does a sunfish count as a gill or must it be a gill?

and one simple request---canada push some of that cold air our way PLEASE......

ifishhi · « **Reply #33 on:** Dec 21, 2006, 05:51 AM »

if some fish can not be in here then is there any way to seperate the browns/rainbows and/or the large/small mouth bass to help even the feild a little

model8 · « **Reply #34 on:** Dec 21, 2006, 08:13 AM »

i say add ll salmon and all brookies

stumper · « **Reply #35 on:** Dec 21, 2006, 09:09 AM »

I dont understand why people cry because they dont have some of the fish availible in their area. I would be suprised if everyone on here isnt in the same position. We cover the entire world with this tourney, we cant expect them to add every fish in the book. Target what you have availible.

This isnt fair at all WE dont have any ICE and may never get any at all this year. you guys with Ice have a total advantage over us

At this point in time I don't care if we have any this year. I just want some for next year when the tourney is held

Bottom line is this is a free tourney with a lot of time , effort and hair falling out put in by people that are graciously volunteer their time .
Don't worry about it if you may or may not have ice when everyone else does or if you may not have a certain qualifying fish in your area .
Just be thankful that this is even happening , target fish you do have when you can and have fun !

Thank you to all the people who are dedicating your time to the tourney . You will never be able to satisfy all the contestants so set the rules you deem fair and leave it at that . If someone don't like it ..... don't participate !
A little abrasive ? Maybe but how much time can you realistically put into a free tourney .

jayswimmer09 · « **Reply #40 on:** Dec 21, 2006, 02:52 PM »

no complaints here. i just cant wait to see what fish people bring in this year!!!!!!! one suggestion tho maybe have a section were you can say how u caught it and if there are any stories behind it and everything. just a idea

I put up a Congrats area where members can congrtulate entries and the entrants can elaborate on the entry.

Under bluegills .... sunfish are ok.
Under crappies ... black and white.
Under perch ........ yellow and white.

ULTRAlite · « **Reply #42 on:** Dec 21, 2006, 05:20 PM »

As a new member I would just like to voice a huge Kudos to LoneWolf and anyone else involved in the conception of this - great idea and thanks for all the hard work....

Now let's get fishin...

fishuhalik · « **Reply #43 on:** Dec 22, 2006, 02:47 AM »

nice work on the tourney lonewolf! every year the sponsors are getting better and better, as are our prizes! thank you guys so much and look forward to seeing some trophies posted, too bad i got my gill too early, woulda placed fer sure! oh well, at least we have ice here in minnesota!!!!!! sorry guys, just had to give that shot. seriously though, you'll get some sooner or later. just keep the faith!!!!

walleyechaser · « **Reply #44 on:** Dec 22, 2006, 09:29 AM »

so if we catch a fish on open water in late January does it count in the ice tourney?

1TIGGER · « **Reply #45 on:** Dec 22, 2006, 09:35 AM »

Not according to the rules .
But that's for Lone Wolf to decide .

adipose · « **Reply #46 on:** Dec 22, 2006, 02:37 PM »

i am just wondering why only ten species of fish are on the leader board.There are sooooo many more common fish like whitefish for eg. whitefish are widespread. other species also

PGKris · « **Reply #47 on:** Dec 22, 2006, 02:49 PM »

Ten prizes = ten categories. Also, I don't think many people target whitefish?

LoneWolf · « **Reply #48 on:** Dec 22, 2006, 05:18 PM »

No matter how we did it someone would lose out on what we already have. Ten categories is more than enough to offer every member an opportunity at several species.
As already mentioned this is a free tournament and for FUN. There are only so many prizes and there are only so many hours in a day.

Scott and I have come up with a viable solution which I will reveal after Christmas.

Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays !

Doug, I think you do one hell of a job with this tournament! I don't want to guess how many hours you put in with getting sponsors, checking entries, and just arranging everything. Thank you for your hard work! I think most members really appreciate all you do.

Maybe we can get some WI cheese to give for prizes to all the winers

If you can figuire out how to stand on water like Jesus did, I believe Lonewolf will accept your entry.

Otherwise, you must be standing on ice or on shore with ICED lake in the background. You should appreciate this since it makes me drive 6 hours to ice instead of 10 minutes to open water.

looks like we're gonna have another great year for entries! any idea how many were included last year in the tourney? i have a feeling this year's gonna top last by a ton!

I think I checked around 375 entries in last seasons tourney.

fishuhalik · « **Reply #54 on:** Dec 23, 2006, 08:03 AM »

and what's the tally so far this year? i think i saw 800 replies on the board, didn't bother to check and see if those were all entries or not

The 375 were entries I had checked. There were about 815 entrants who signed up. This years we have around 800 but there's still time left.

camo_fish · « **Reply #56 on:** Dec 23, 2006, 11:49 AM »

thanks Lonewolf and IceShanty for great new sponsors this year and just running and putting on a great Ice fishing online tourney.

Those slammers look cool and are a great drawing prizes, holly cow.
Now all we need is some ice come Jan. 1st, 2007. $:-\$

Again, thanks so much for all the time put into prep, checking entries, and all the time talking to and setting up new a great sponsors.

Thank,
Camofish

To all a safe and happy, Merry Christmas and New Years, along with all the other holiday celebrations.

PGKris · « **Reply #57 on:** Dec 23, 2006, 01:41 PM »

Going to be a very lopsided tourney considering the eastern seaboard is without ice

You guys are gonna have to fish HARD once you get it to catch up

LoneWolf · « **Reply #58 on:** Dec 23, 2006, 02:14 PM »

As long as there's ice it should work out. While some are in the mid season slow down the late comers will be on early ice.

I updated the main post with most of the pics/links for prizes.

4cator · « **Reply #59 on:** Dec 23, 2006, 04:13 PM »

Theres plenty of ice in central Wyoming, we don't have any seasons for a particular fish. There are lakes here with every fish the tourney is looking for. Many of our lakes have a six line limit and we can fish all night. Mix that in with the fact that there are only 425,000 people in the entire state. We may not have enough fishermen, but we have plenty o fish.

Bring on the tourney, we are ready!!!!!!!!!

the ol 4nacator.

and kudos to those who have put it on and take care of it.
