This applies even if more than two (2) fishermen are in the boat. Live or artificial bait is allowed. In the case of a single man team, you are limited to the per person lake limit for that tournament but not to exceed eight (8) in the case of Lake Washington, which has no pole maximum. For a lake like Washington or Chotard with no pole limit, a person fishing by themselves could fish eight (8) poles. On a COE lake, he's limited to four (4) or on Grenada three (3). No more than two (2) hooks or lures allowed per pole. Absolutely NO wading or bank fishing allowed.

Ress you weren't ignored. Spiderwoman made it perfectly clear. Folllow the rules of the tournament you are fishing. The rule is clear. 4 pole limit on a COE lake if you are a fishing alone in the FJ.

Also, didn't realize since this is a joint tournament ran simultanesously with MCC that it woulkd be neccessary to post the start and stop time, but for those who feel they need clarification, they are the SAME as MCC.

FYI - Just wanted to pass on some weigh-in info. I was wondering how weights would be recorded with two tournaments going on at the same time. I was told that teams fishing both tournaments would weigh-in at the same time but those that only fish the crappie.com tournament will have to wait until the MCC weigh-in is over.

It will be interesting to see how this works out. I truly hope it helps the participation of both organizations but so far I don't see how it has helped the Fj's but registration will be the true test. Should be a fun day of fishing!

Yikes - I'm like you, I'm not sure what the benefit is other than having both groups fishing together. The tournament is actually a Water Valley tournament, they came to MCC asking us would we hold a tournament for them in conjunction with their festival. In return they would sponsor MCC. The tournament is an open tournament with no club membership required. MCC uses the tournament as one of our regular season events to encourage participation. MCC will not make a penny off of any team that fishes the tournament. Although crappie.com stands to increase their finals payout if teams sign up for both tournaments. I just don’t understand the need for the two separate tournaments running at once. I have no problem with trying to get both clubs to fish together. I just think there is a better way. I think when Ken asked crappie.com to join in he had good intentions and was trying to smooth over bad blood from a previous bad encounter. I would of preferred that both organizations agree to use the tournament as a regular season event. That way we would all weigh-in together and had one big tournament.
