7:00 am or safe light means.. We could launch a little before 7:00 or little after 7:00 We want to make sure we have enough lite to see before we launch. Sign up will be at 5:00 am and we will have a meeting 6:15 am. If everyone agrees and has no more questions we will get the boats in the water. Make sure you have your lights plug in and on along with you life jackets and kill switch attach.

Sunrise should be about 5:40am on May 15th. Safe light should be long before 7am.
We had plenty of light for our 7am start today. Sunrise was 6:48am. Couldn't imagine you not having safe light long before 7am. Probably have safe light before your 6:15 meeting. Unless your expecting heavy cloud cover, like rain clouds.
Let me think about the tournament. Would like to go, however $50 for a single is a bit steep.

You never know what Mother Nature will throw at you this time of year. We've had thunderstorms, light rain, fog, cloud cover and very few times a nice view of a sunrise at take off is visible. So we try to get everyone in the water by 7:00 am and launch if we have safe lite. $25.00 per person or 50.00 per boat for two fisherman is reasonable for a crappie tournament. Everyone is welcome and I think you would have a good time and meet a lot of good people. If you need a partner to split the cost with you, I'm sure we can find someone to fish.

If it's okay to pay per head? I would be more inclined to participate. I seriously doubt I will win, however I'm always willing to try. Let me see what I can work out. Right now I am a good possibility.
Partnering up- I doubt that will work out for me. I have to bring my Shih Tzu's this trip. They are worse than kids in the boat. One is pretty relaxed, the other is like a fart in a skillet. Eventually getting the relaxed one worked up until they play catch me if you can around the boat. They also like to stand on the bow while under way and feel the wind through their hair. Not fair to subject my partner to the distraction.

I think its 50 per boat.

That is correct it is $50.00 per boat. Dogs fish free.. Also if you what to get in the (optional) big crappie pot it is $10.00 extra for that. Ken.. I would think it would be at the ramp at eagle creek. Maybe someone knows of something else they are doing. We have been catching some nice fish the last couple of days. Here is one that would of been in the running for the big fish pot. The one on the bottom is a 11 1/2 inch fish.

Sit N Sip and SCC are both on May 2. I called the Sit N Sip to let them know to see if a reschedule is possibly. With the new rules I just read its probably not possible.

I am gonna go out on a limb here and say if it is not safe light prior to 7 AM we will be having other major issues, because sunrise is at 5:41 that day, so you should be able to see at 5:11 or there abouts.
Thanks:
