I'm sorry some of you didn't agree with it but only Yikess and a few others have been involved with the FJ's since the beginning! Before you tar and feather him, ask yourself, what would you do? Would you hold up weigh in for 15 minutes,? 30 minutes?, 1 hour?, 1 week? Seems that some doing the complaining don't ever offer to help! Let's not play arm chair quarter back. He had a tough decision to make. He made it! That's it, it's over! Get off his butt!!!!

The weigh-in wasn't held up at all. I didn't fish it and still drove to the weigh-in to help.

Seriously though, I knew the time and I made all the mistakes that led up to me being late to the line. Nobody to blame but me. Yikess did his job, I just didn't do mine.

So you and 15 other boats could make it to weigh in on time? The one who has the reason to be upset, isn't! If you had finished with a winning weight and I showed up late, they let me weigh in any way and knocked you out of the money, you would be fine with that? You can say what you want but I think you would be mad as hell!!!! And rightfully so!!!

My gosh people`would you stop and use your head`a minute, This is c.com fruitjar, not CRappie Masters national tour. This is beyond belief. And no I would not be mad at any one of you that were a few minutes late. ESPECIALLY WHEN THE WEIGHIN WAS MOVED

My 2 cents

To start with, congratulation to you Chris and your boys. Y'all out fished some mighty good fisherman today. So hold Yalls head high and if you don't mount the big azz crappie for them boys then you are a tight wad banker that everyone says you are.
As the rule says..... Be in line at 3 o'clock . Rules are rules. The tournament committee were following the rules.
BUT.... These rules are mightey fluid,if ES had not told me as I was putting in this a.m. I would not have known that the weigh in site had been moved to Outfitters. This was a decision that was made last night at the eat and meet. I did not attend. I was under the impression that we were following the COE rules for tournaments . I brought 7 fish to the weigh in, culled a lot of legal fish that I could have brought home. I was under the impression that we had to follow COE tournament rules. All rules. I looked at my phone when Stan called the 3 o'clock time..... You all pulled up at 3:02, you were late and you are man enough to admit the fact. But.... As jacked up this was today..... What is 2 minutes??????
In my book, you might not have took any money home today, but y'all won. Congratulations !
I can't believe I'm sayin this... You are the man !
