It is almost September and game time. This will be the thread that we post our pics and stories on. I will try to get this "stickeyd" so it stays at the top throughout the month. With each of your submissions we would like a short story of it (date and time,body of water,bait, depth,fishing technique,etc.)You can be as concise or vague with the stories as you want, Ijust figured it would help the less experienced fisherman following the event and not fishing in it.Each entry will need 2 pics, one with you holding the fish dispalying the control item, and another showing the weight of the fish. If you can get all of this in one picture that will be fine also. I will post all of the contestants involved for September tomorrow and the control item will be released around 5pm tomorrow. Good luck to all and lets have a great time with this. Please PM Chase or I with any questions you may have.

PS: We are going to start another thread for trash talk so this one doesnt get completely jumbled up.

Here is a list of the contestants for September. Looks like 36 entered so far. cathog, chase4, chase curtis, lewisvillecatfishing, armycatfisher aka suga britches, markray, estarr, tex, bassin87, trlrman, Lga043, Drawout, tgravely aka stinkbait tom, william64, anniec, jjohn, Derek, bigberg, jmounger, moderndaydrifter, spudcattinaroundadventures, smellmyfinger, killshot, pbfishin, blesley, jjason, burnema, purebay2200, nttc, 2fish4everything, bankfisher73, brando, littlerobby, tmac, fishhaulersguideservice, nefishwilldoguideservice

After some discussion with some of the other guys, if we get a check that is postmarked before August 29th and gets here before the control item is posted, we will accept it and add them to the list.

Control item will be posted around 5pm tomorrow.

Alright it is about time for Septembers control item. You can write it on a piece of paper or print it out on your computer. It has to be legible in the pic with the fish. If printing them I would suggest to print several because usually they are ruined after one fish. Following is what needs to be on the paper:

Suga britches, eat your heart out.
September 2010 TFF Big cat fishoff

Hilarious!!!
Man I almost feel sorry for Zach!

THATLL WORK!!!!!!

Wow, nice. Poor Zach. But even if his shoulders aren't big enough to carry the load from all the teasing he gets, his mouth is.

Nice, at least the control item has the name of the champ on it!

I like it, suga britches sounds like a champ to me!

-Z

That's great.

It's a goodun alright. Gary is gonna post pictures from a tourney he did in the past tonight for examples on how we want it done.

if zach is on the boat in his new jacket with his new name on it do we have to have the exact wording!!!!!LOL well i guess i better play it safe

What if your fishing by your self do you have to be in the picture also or can it just be the control and the fish?

X 2 Good question

Eric, all of the ones I have fished before required you to be in the pic with the fish. Makes it hard at times, last year I had to load a fish in the livewell and haul butt to the ramp to get a pic made. So in other words, yes you have to be in the pic with the fish. I have since gotten a camera with a timer so I can do that.

Here is an example of a fish submission from an online tourney last year.

The control item can be seen in the pic with me and the fish. You will also need a shot of the scales that can be read. I will look to see if I can find any of my old scale shots.

Couldnt find a scale pic,I didn't save any I guess. But I thought I would give the payout info for September. 36 total entries, $180 total pot. 1st-$90, 2nd-$54, 3rd-$36

Okay I found a scale pic,it is not for the fish I posted but it will give yall an idea. If you can get everything in 1 pic then that will work also, but it is hard to read the scales in some of those.

Printing some off As we speak. Man every time I hear the name sugar britches. Gives me night mares of that video of Zach LOl

Please, oh please guys....... Make this the only reference to "Sweet Tater's" alias for the rest of the tourney. Like T-Mac said...everytime I hear that I see him peddling used cars......Makes my skin crawl

Way to go Lewisville Catfishing. But I could had done with the image of Zach head on that

I see that Zachery has borrowed someones boat to cruse around the lake in!!!
