Whoever throws it can decide whatever they want for the payout. I just would not want to have to do the math. heck, I aint won anything at any slabfests that had sidepots either. The unknown is the best of it. Most fun I have had in a while was the Slabfest to Sante Fe, never even seen the lake before fishing it that day. Sure had a good time of it.

I just need a briefing on sandbars, fence posts or any hidden underwater objects
otherwise the UNKNOWN is the best part of the adventure.

Just an idea.....

OCTOBER --SLABFEST............. Lake Monroe
NOVEMBER -- SLABTOGETHER.............. lake and date to be announced
DECEMBER -- SLABTOGETHER...............lake and date to be anounced
JANUARY -- SLABTOGETHER.................Crescent Lake
FEBRUARY --SLABFEST.................. Lake Griffin
MARCH -- SLABTOGETHER................lake and date to be announced
APRIL -- SLABFEST................Lake Monroe

SLABFESTS.................fish til 1:00PM
SLABTOGETHERS..........fish all day

I appreciate all the conerns about the amount of work involved etc. , but I enjoy the traditional cookouts and I think it's a drawing card for some folks as well. Every month can get a little involved but I think we can easily pull off three a season.

POINTS RACE: All slabfests and slabtogethers OCTOBER thru MARCH (6 weigh-ins) will be the official weights for the points race.....disgard one weigh-in and the winners, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place will based on five weights. The BIG FISH of the season will also be based on the official weigh-ins.

Thanks for listening.....just my ideas and I appreciate all the input.

As time gets closer to a SLABTOGETHER and no one has come up with a lake to fish maybe it would be good to automatically make it Lake Monroe. At least then there is a place to fish.

How many bedrooms and sofas, MAYBE WE ALL COME UP AND STAY!
