What time would you guys suggest we get there if we're in the first flight? Does anyone know if we still need to pay to park? Any other helpful tips and suggestions for 1st timers? Early and yes you should pay to launch Im sure most dont. You would think not paying a required boat launch fee would be considered not following all local laws and regulations and jepoardize a polygraph result.

We are boat 68. We will be at the ramp around 5:15 to eliminate any hassle. That's a little early, but I'm the guy that can sit in the boat on the morning of a tournament for hours and stare at the stars. Yes you do still have to pay to launch. I believe it's $4. At th public ramp beside Umphreys the box is on the right after you go thru the first parking and past the left hand turn to cut thru to Umphreys.

wow, really 300+ teams? seemed like it on the water today. I spent last 2 days practicing, yesterday was nice had lake to myself, today I never saw less than 3 boats around.
will be interesting to see the results! I was mainly marking trails and checking waypoints, little fishing I did was tough! I only saw one fish caught today and it was a dink, that's 9 hours with 3+ boats all around me. I caught one yesterday on a spot, today 3 pm after not catching anything went back to that same spot and caught a bigger one. Not sure how I would do if just soaked that same spot all day, it was a large offshore spot.
my prediction some always gets the kickers for 25+ pounds, but there will be a bunch of teams short of limits.

You would think not paying a required boat launch fee would be considered not following all local laws and regulations and jepoardize a polygraph result. If that were the case better make sure you don't speed on the way there or break any other laws. I doubt parking has anything to do with the rules of the tournament. If it does it would be mentioned in the rules. Either way, ya pay for parking!

You would think not paying a required boat launch fee would be considered not following all local laws and regulations and jepoardize a polygraph result. Yesterday at Boykin they ran out of envelopes early. There were 10 of us standing around. Some just walked away, some wrapped money up in paper, and I just threw $3 cash in taking a picture as proof. They left an envelope with my info on it to send in $3 again, sure I will get a ticket if I don't. Thinking back I think putting $3 in paper with your info is the best thing, but those people might have still received the envelope and future ticket as they didn't have the official envelope tab in window. If the park doesn't have enough envelopes I think responsibility should be on them and not the anglers trying to figure out a work around.

This is a frequent problem at Boykin. Some of us (me) may be contributing to the problem because I will get a few when there are some at the box because many times there are not any. BUT is wasn't me this week.

I had the same problem back in October. I wrote all of my pertinent info on a piece of paper and wrapped up the money in it. When I got back to the ramp that evening I had an envelope on my wind shield telling me to pay. I wrote a note on it and placed more money in it. I doubt they even read the note and not sure who to call to question it. I thought it was an isolated problem but sounds like it happens a lot. I quit using that ramp and will probably not use it again. Not because I have a problem with paying six bucks vs three I just do not want to risk getting a ticket for not paying the launch fee when I did. Just my opinion.

I agree with you and that proves you can't get around it whether you just drop cash in box or you actually take time to write all info on paper, they still take your tag and give you envelope!
