I had an e-mail with a couple questions for the upcoming MEETS and I figured that I'd put them up...
What is it all about? I want to offer a little side tournament for our members. As we already have meets where we get together at different times of the year, this just adds the chance for some cool prizes for those that participate...
Is it a competition? Not really. Not in the typical sense of tournaments. We've had some nice donations from our sponsors for this and wanted to add a little sizzle. The objective is to practice C&R and have a good time...
Does it cost anything? Nope, just be a member of the message boards in good standing (2 weeks before a leg and 10 posts as a member)...
Are there any "group" accomodations? Nothing official - The "Official" night of these meets is Satruday night. Friday night is a scout night that counts towards the "Leg" provided you fish with another board member...
Does everyone fish together? We're trying to match similar styles and experience and equipment... Also, some of the more productive spots cannot support large groups of people decending on them...
Do I need a boat? Pure shorebound
Also - gear recommendations:
I would recommend hip boots & splash pants or waders...
A good surf rod/reel configured to how you will fish (ie plugs/eels/chunks/ or fly if you'd like - although there is no seperate "fly" division)...
Korkers if you have them - for those that don't, there are plenty of clearer, korkerless places to fish...
Typical night gear such as neck light, light plug bags/gear bags (no need to lug 50 pounds walking on sand)...
Any other questions?
