I think I have an idea that might help. Get a Special colored tape that is different than the other tournaments going on the same day for the Championship competitors to display on the trolling motors. Instruct the rest of the TFFr's to give "right of way" (show of respect) to those guys if they are fishing an area. Now, on the other hand, if the TFFr is fishing a spot already and the Championship folks come in on them, I believe that it's just too bad for the Championship guys. It would be the same as any other tournament, you don't own the lake and you dang sure don't know all the folks fishing on any given day. First come first serve.
Having a big turn out for the weigh-in and crowning of the champs would be a really cool thing, and I hope it happens this year!

I'm just here to help, doesn't matter to me whether I fish or Take Pictures. I am going to try and find ya on the lake and take a shot or 2 if I can as well as many photos at the ramp before and after. I wish we could get a camera boat to follow Stan and Tommy as well as anyone else that went undefeated this year.

This Championship is a big deal and should be treated like it.
Just don't want the losing team to be the only ones clapping for the winners LOL probably could hear a pin drop

Jody

Jody, sounds LIKE YOU wanna Kick some ones AZZ.. hehehehe !!!!

If Stan still has the same boat as last year, it looks just like mine.

Hey Red that would be fun but not this trip, now had they chosen Palestine or Lake Tyler LOL Now that would really be fun...

Jody

Yeah I lost to Stan and Tommy on Lake Holbrook this year. Still have to spit every time I think of that. LOL


Jody

Agreed, This is the Payoff for all the hard work during the season. The two teams really diseve a hand for sure. I wish we could have done it up bigger and better. Oh well, well leave that up to the new crew next year.

Nah, I can see how you could think that especially with the smack talk of late. But for me, it has totally been in fun and I hold no ill will towards anyone on Sweeet or any other team for that matter.

IF we are beat I know our team and I know it wont be because we didn't give it our best. We'll leave everything we've got on the lake, and I'm sure Team Sweeet will do the same. I'd not only clap for them but would want to shake each of their hands...because if by some fluke they do win they'll have had to EARN it!

Jody,
You know we got lucky except for the fact that if you put us on a strange lake Stan just gets up in the front of the boat, sticks his neck way out with his nose in the air and goes to searching. You know he can smell fish from a mile away. He headed us right to one of your favorite area's and we hung out there the whole time and the only bummer was that we both lost fish that night. Anyway that was a great time because we got to meet you and Steve and talk fishing while eating dinner. Looking forward to seeing you this weekend.

if yall really want to do a grudge match lets do it at the fund raiser tourney that Buda 13 is putting on the morning of the Tff
Christmas party.we can help out with the fund raiser and have mini matches against each team and so forth.

Okay, Jody has the goods for this weekend. Have Fun!!

i also have a set of scales as a back up that i will be bringing just in case.

I learned the hard way back in August about having a set of back-ups. It won't happen again!

i know we had the same problem a couple of months ago,so we held a raffle and bought some new ones and sent the old ones to be refurbished.

Tommy and Stan it was great meeting ya'll as well. Didn't mean any ill will by my comments above..

I really enjoyed this match Play this year and look forward to next year.

Meanwhile I am looking forward to this weekend to see who the Stars of 2007 Matchplay really is. All points are gone and you have 1 day to prove your stuff... Good Luck to all

Jody

Tell you what Jody...Let's put up a $20. I won't even show up. If you catch a Keeper you win if you don't then I win

Now that isn't a very fair bet. Lets give you a 5 pound lead. That way I have to at least catch 5 lb. That should also be enough to win the Championship. LOL

Jody

WOW! you have alot of confidence in those two teams I think 5#'s is a bit much for'em...lol

Hey Donny,

I had 6.09 in 2 fish. Broke off a real good fish under a dock, those dang metal post are hard on line...
When do you want your stuff back?
