$25 for club members and subscribers to OTW. You need to declare if your fishing for a club at time of application. Like most I not crazy about the time frame. Looks like us surf guys will have to score big and go large in June and July. On a good note those have been my best months with October and November not far behind.

Great concept tough to compete with boat guys.
Weekly surf prizes of rod an reel combo's to largest surf bass.i think all other entries are boat or surf.Do i really need another rod an reel combo?Will I be able to convince say 30 of our 150 members to pay 25 dollars each to join?Here's what i'll happen i will join for a few yrs.Maybe win a penn slammer an gti combo.an then the next yr.I say screw it.Then I will get a bass that would win it all outright.

Part of the reason I didn't sign up at the show.OTW doesn't really reconize NJ.I still didn't get last months magazine.where will i have to weigh a fish at.???they say u have to be at the harpoon party to be eligible for the boat but they don't say where or when.Plus I really don't like boat an surf combinds.There are time we surf guys would smoke embut overall i think boat guys hjave a much greater chance to win so in essense my 25 dollars would be a doantion.I would rather buy a HAB's |

I will be.
They have not worked out the final details with me yet.
They are working on more weigh in stations. Some shops have not gotten back to them and some shops have not even opened for the season as of yet.
They will be adding more. Just give it some time. |

i enter several turnys each year just for some added fun . i have never weighed in a fish yet . (not very good at catching large but hopeful) , i am not going to kill a 32"-40" fish just to have a weigh in , when i know it won't win . 2 fish a week x how many entrants , way to many fish killed ,imho , i won't be signing up for this one

yeah, they separate boat and shore for angler of the year and the weekly prizes, but it seems like that is it. It does not say if any of the other awards are separated boat and shore.
The other thing is that the bigger clubs have a huge advantage, but I guess that is just their reward for being a good club and having a lot of members.
Not sure how I feel about the two fish per week thing either, I doubt a lot of people will weigh in two fish per week, but I guess it is a concern.
Overall I think this is a good tourney. Leaving the big money prizes up to chance rather than who caught the biggest overall fish is a good way to work it.

I chatted with a rep for awhile there on sunday. Currently they have way stations from NY north to Maine. I asked specifically about NJ and he stated not yet. The year end party is at the Harpoon Brewery in Boston (been to a couple Octoberfest there - great time). Will be interesting how this first year runs......

I am sure they had alot to concider in this contest, I really think they should have different divisions, surf/boat it really seems like a nicely planned and thought out. this is the first year and it will take a couple of years of tweaking. it is hard to make everyone happy I am sure they will try there best.
