Hope you enjoyed the Big Mama

I just wanted to say thank you for coming to MCC's Big Mama event. I hope all that came had a good time. It was allot of work but I believe it went off without a hitch! Until you put on one of these big events you can't imagine how much work goes into it! Not to mention all the guys that work so hard volunteer their time.

Also thanks for the kind words from some of the c.comers Saturday. I was told about the bashing I received here over the weekend but thankfully I can take it with a grain of salt. Especially once I found out who was doing the bashing. I have never looked at the two groups as some sort of competition just a bunch of guys that enjoy crappie fishing!

Had a great time Hugh. Just wish I coulda been on the fish Friday and Saturday that I was on Thursday

How many boats did yall end up with?? From what I heard it was a great event, congrats.

It was a GREAT time Hugh!!! You guys and gals are top notch!!! If anyone hasn't fished with MCC, they should give it a try. Great bunch of folks

It was a great success Hugh, glad I was able to participate. Looking forware to Big Mama III.

I enjoyed almost every minute....except for the part where ya'll gave my money away, the part where I got my tail kicked and the part where I had to put up with Triton whining all day.

A big thanks to the War Eagle guys for the feed they put on Friday night too. If their boat business ever dries up, they've got a future in catering.

Seriously, ya'll did a bang up job on the whole deal Hugh. Especially considering there were two tournaments at once and the number of people ya'll had to go through. I did think that Paul Johnson was gonna whoop somebody for talking over him on Friday evening though. LOL.

We had 69 boats fishing in the Big Mama!

That's awesome!!!!!!!!!

Hugh, you, Steve, Paul and everyone else did a great job running things. I enjoyed participating and look forward to a great season fishing with you guys.

It was a blast! Had a bunch of big names fishing in it too.

Hugh, this was our first time fishing it and had a good time. I know how it is coordinating with groups, bottom line you can't make everybody happy. Thanks

Let this go to show that anybody can win at any time. I thisk it was Roach and Roach first crappie tournament and they beat alot of teams that compete on a national level.

Ms Slab, I'll hafta admit and you should too, that you are an offeshuall member of Team JADA now.
As far as the bashin, I wouldn't necessarily call it bashin. I would call it "Throughly discussin the topic at hand". Don't think nobody called anybody any bad names or nuthin like that, jus some friendly ribbin that got way off topic. Anyhow, congratulations on the good turnout and great tourney.

Shaddup Sat.

Are they local folks???

Sorry I couldn't make it this past weekend, but I'm fishing with y'all some next year. Lookin forward to getting your dates and locations. Two thumbs up for what I hear was a great tourney!!!!

Now I would have to disagree with Minnerman. It sure sounded like bashin to me, taking the history into consideration. But G took care of it real quick like and sent it to his speshul invisible file.

Yep, what he said.

It wasnt bashin til y'all throwed Mr Holic under the bus and then ran over him with both back tires. Then there might have been a small amount of intermediate bashin. But in my opinion all the bashers and bashees were present. There was some bashin of the stewpit rule that was mentioned that caused this whole bit of excitement.
Anyhow it's all good now, a new Jada member, nobody is real mad and we can all agree DD is still a gewber.

give me a break, the thread was started as a bashing and to say it wasnt would be an outrite tale of deseption. The Holic part was just a bonus!!!!Rofl

First of all I never even got to read the thread but I know it was about my 8 fish at the scales Friday. Just to give my side of the story here is what happen. I keep my fish on O2 during tournaments because I believe they weigh more alive. I had culled 7 fish and put them in my minnow tank with O2 since we were trying to release live fish and they would be easy to get to when our number was called. I was running the microphone and my partner , who is the club secretary, was keeping the books. I had put a fish in the cooler earlier in the day and forgot about it. Anyway I put our 7 tournament fish in the tank with the fish I forgot about. Well our number was about to be called and I ask a board member to go to my boat and dump my minnow tank in my bucket to bring to the scales. I was just as shocked when the weigh crew announced 8 fish! Either way MCC has a rule for this case, as well as, if ice is present when fish are brought to the scales. If that happens you go to the back of the weigh line as I did! Our tournaments while serious are also about having fun. It was an honest mistake and no penalty was warranted.

Even more reason to be considered a JADA. I wouldn't trust anybody I fesh tourneys with to brang my fesh to the scales. Least that clears up the fact that some may have thought you were tryin to cheat. I knowed you wouldn't that ignert. Well I was hoping anyhow.
I'll go ahead and tell you like I tolt em Saturday, I do think the 8 fesh rule to the back of the line is crap. Ifn a feller can't count, he oughta be dq'ed, not put in time out and allowed to try and learn to count. Anyhow, glad you cleard that up.

Rees, see, I tolt you Ms Slab wouldn't cheat.

Oh and by the way, what gewber puts fesh in his minner tank?

And I still believe, like I said Saturday, if you don't like an organizations rules, you should join that organization, if you are not already a member, and lobby the powers that be to change the rules. Not spout off you 2 cents worth in a public forum.

Minnerman I can’t say I disagree with you on being DQ'd for too many fish. Although I don't think that is a good policy for MCC or C.Com tournaments. Now when dealing with Crappie Masters I believe that is grounds for DQ. Our club is no different than your group of guys we are just doing this for fun! Now as far as me cheating I didn't realize that was the accusations made against me! I have way too much to lose to cheat in a tournament!

Trust me I caught enough grief all weekend!

Cheating was never mentioned by anyone in the thread other than it being in gest, at least that's the way I took it and I was smack dab in the middle of the whole deal.Thumbs Up
Mistakes are made and at certain levels the punishment is more severe than others. Stand up guy far as I can see, thanks for what you do and hopefully I will feel my abitlities are up to snuff next year and I can join yall some.
