Crapp Master's

Gas, bait, 18.00 a night at the corps, 26.00 a night at the casinos in Tunica, food. Its not hard to burn 60 a day in gas.

And gas...Well we all know who makes the $$$ on gas and it ain't the local town. Granted there's some money injected from the tourney into the local economy but I was trying to figure out if $80K were justifable. I guess 40K was if you guys spend what you claim.

Torch, if you're in a camper and spending $600 does $300 of it include the entry fee? If not you gotta get off the Columbian White Witch.

I still have my expense report from the trip:

Motel: $75 x 5 = $375.00
Food: $40.00 x 5 = 200.00
Gas: $ 200.00 (Truck only, to and from Grenada)
Boat gas, snacks, bait, etc.: $200.00
Boat Oil: $40.00
Gift for Wife: $35.00 (Worth a lot more than that!!!:D)
Launch fees: $25.00

If I'm not mistaken, this would add up to be about $1,075.00 and I'm sure the rest was spent on misc.stuff!!!:D:D

It's pretty easy to spend $1,100-1,200 if you go just for 5 days or so. Like I said this didn't count the weekend prefishing trips. And guess what I won? Notta, nuttin, zilch, zero, busted, but guess what? I'll be back at the next one spending probably more than this because I choose to. If I didn't like the game or the rules or thought it was a scam or not enough was being done for the angler, I WOULD NOT BE INVOLVED!

But like you, I have sit down and done the math with what I seem to know to be the true numbers, and I can see where these tourny's are a huge economic impact for a community. As I am sure the Chamber of Commerce's have done in every town where they are held.

Ya'll need to knock this expense recap crap off. What if our wives log on and see this junk? Then where we gonna be? Bad enough we got 3 of their spies lookin' in on us - CN, CM and Nessa. We'll be lucky if they don't tell already.

If I know Nessa , she is the one keepin up with it at that house! With CM not far behind her.

I agree Wannabe........I thought about it and if the Mrs. see's this I'm doomed!!!!!

You know the saying.. Women control 95% of the money and

You guys know the rest

I just put my check in the bank and

let her pay da bills. Course I do keep my PLAYIN money fo the week:D:D
AMEN Brother Torch, they control ALL THE _ _ _ _ _
