Guys excel is not wanting way points his point he was trying to get across sounds like to me is he was confused on how ABH has all these spots on our tournament lakes when he says to the tourneys are not fair and they are others home waters. I don't think he was having an attitude just saying what the heck don't complain about something when he fishes those waters all the time but won't fish the tourneys.
Oh he has lost it! Thank goodness he has one of those fancy fish finders so he can find it.
Well all the Dardanelle points and maps are online on the parks website. I'm not sure he was complaining about the lakes them self but just that they were all central Arkansas lakes and he was under the impression it was a statewide tournament series or club. It just happens most of the better crappie lakes are located there.
Dustin welcome. I glad to see you posting after being a part oh the forum sense Aug. :cheers2
I think everyone needs to say a prayer and thank AB for his help!!
I guess when you ask for comment and you share your thoughts it is taken as complaining. Yes i have been to those lake!
At least express and a few others understood why i mentioned that they were all centrally located.
I was asked by midsouth to head a tourney up here in pine bluff. I explained that wasn't fair cause it was my home water. I declined and asked that a poll be taken as I would definitely be biased in my choice. Is this complaining, or practicing what i was preaching about being fair? darn sure seems like i was trying to be fair. If it is a "Arkansas" association then have lakes around the state and not so many in some of you guys back yard!! So now who is complaining? Seems to me like maybe I was one of the few that was offering suggestions to make things FAIR to all people. If not i would have taken the option offered by midsouth to head a tourney here in my backyard.
With that said, i still stand that if one comes here I would help out if asked. I could care less about fishing it. Is that complaining or being Fair.
I call stuff as i see it. If you don't want suggestions then don't ask for them. Hope y'all do well.
As far as the new guys coming to the tourney and learning a lot I don't see that happening. I wanted to let make newbies aware of that too. When people tourney fish they are serious and the two i have been too, it was all about fishing and not helping newbies.
I have saved the conversations i have had and would be glad to show them if need be regarding your tourney with midsouth. I have nothing to gain or lose and stand behind what i have stated.
I have stayed out of your thread and refrained from any more comments on the tourneys as i made my suggestions and any further would be complaining in my eyes.
April 20 is the same day we were having the ARKANSAS spring camp too! Is this a good thing or bad thing? Not my call just again stating the obvious. We usually have a big fish tourney for our camp members that day.
Feel free to contact me if any one needs more discussion or clarification. Dennis or midsouth and many others have my number.
Thanks ABH. It takes a real nice guy to share some of his work with folks. As for the complainers, you want someone to put your brush piles out for you as well? You should be thankful he even did that.
I don't remember anyone asking you for your comments on it. It was just the rules and the schedule. That was it.
I'm glad to see the comments here, it only takes one crappy attitude to ruin the overall attitude of a helping community. I was gonna set the record straight in my previous post but felt I'd give ABH his shot to respond.
ABH is nothing but helpful to who ever asks, you should try that approach excel. ABH's comments about tourneys were what a lot of us were thinking, let's spread it out over the whole state. It didn't have anything to do with him not knowing those waters.
They did ask for comments about.
