MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
I think the kids and Granpa had a nice day fishing and spent quality time together. Even caught some nice fish. everybody won.
Sorry to hear all of this... I've got a rather good guess as the what event this was and beleive I'm a former member (haven't paid my 2010 dues yet but probably will) of the club that put on this event. Bums me out to hear things didn't go smoothly, and bothers me even more I wasn't aware that the event was even taking place until a friend showed me some pictures on Facebook last night and asked me why I wasn't there. Past years I'd heard about it at meetings or saw a local ad or whatever, but this year I had no idea. If they needed more help etc, I would have skipped the Little O Derby weekend just to be there to help for the kids event. Sounds like they had great intentions as they usually do, but poor execution of that vision...Any nice browns wrestled up??
for the most part jimmy i will agree the kids went through 4 dozen shiners and chased flags for the whole day and caught a lot of fish on 5 traps and 2 jigg rods but as far as the kids all the kids not just my grand kids that didnt get a chance to weigh in ther fish was un fair and those kids got cheated
Being impartial... what ever was in writing on the entry form would be fair for everyone. Sounds like you got some bad info at weigh in time but, for the kids on the board at the eleven deadline, it would have not been fair to them. If you had not checked in at 10:45 you would have thought it was over. It sounds like you and I are related. We always seem to catch a winner after the cut off time.
Maka, I'm not sure if it was the same one your thinking of.I've never heard of them doing a adult derby after the kids... And....for grandpa and kids chasing flags all day and going through 4dz shiners doesn't sound like the same.Sorry to hear that this fly by night derby did't go well for you hardwatergrandpa.
Will you please tell us the name of the derby?
iam waiting to see if they respond to my pms to them if they dont then i will post the name of the derby
just say the derby! sounds like your the one miss informed and dont want to admit being wrong gramps.
Sounds personnel for you, registered just to make that comment, sober up.
well dirt guy were you one of the judges if so why so many changes with the weigh in times miss informed yes that's a true statement one paper says 4-11 and the other 4-1200 i showed up to be weighted in for the 11 weigh in and iam told by the judges that the derby runs until 12. 15-20 minutes later the kids go in again to regester a fish and there told the derby ended at 11 by the same 3 guys that sent them back out fishing miss informed i should say sooooo
