TFF Tournament - 06/19/18 09:02 PM

Would be fun if we could put together a TFF bass Tournament Team event $ 200 entry. Pay 1 place for every 5 entries. Thoughts

We still do a TFF Christmas Charity Tournament, but the days of the TFF tournaments have pretty much passed. If your serious about putting something together best thing to do is shoot a PM to the forum admin and discuss.

We could have 25 boaters show up and 25 non boaters,, have a draw for the non boaters then go fishing,, top 5 teams get paid? Sounds fun to me. That's $5000 grand to split. $2000 1st $15002nd 3rd $700 4th $500 5th $300

Make the Entry 350.00 per boat. Draw style boater and non-boater, Go to Falcon and make it a 2 day Most everyone would have to travel, few would be able to pre-fish and everyone would have a great time. Especially if you got enough to fill up a hotel where everyone could hang out for the weekend. Fish Saturday 6:30 take off til 4pm and Sunday fish from 6:30 take off til 12:30 Heaviest combined weight and pay out a big bass for each day.

Just a thought

Agree with all except the 50/50 split between boater and co. Not fair. Should be 70/30. Boaters pay way more in expenses.



Edit.....if you don't think 70/30 is fair.....go buy a boat and get back to me. Ha.

Me and Maxwell were undefeated against TS in 5 matches in 2 years.. Until the championship on the hated Ceder Creek, I caught 50 13 -7/8" fish. I hate that lake, Stan Browning, and Jack (RedRanger)did a good job of baiting us in on that..

Ok, maybe twice, then. Are you sure? I don't doubt you but I definitely remember who won the title. And even back-to-back! TEAM SWEET KINGS!

Re: TFF Tournament - 06/21/18 10:04 PM

way back when ... before the match play Ts, there was the BBFTs. i dont recall the entry, it was pretty minimal but it wasn't unusual to draw 35+ boats. those were pretty fun, good way to meet a lot of guys.

Those were good. I won one at Grapevine but lost all my money when I offered to buy drinks at big bucks.

I don't think you would see a Non boater pay the same entry fee and then see part of his money go to another prize pool.
Not even the Pro Tours do that.
the PLUS of being a boater is being able to fish your own water. I would just imagine you would have a real hard time getting enough NON-Boaters to fill up all the back seats. I know I would not want to fish Falcon and be dependent on someone else's water.

should be a non-boater's responsibility to pay $$$ to the boater for gas.

Re: TFF Tournament - 06/22/18 01:24 PM

That was not my idea, I think it would be a fun time if 25 boaters draw from 25 non boaters they are now a team, working together. $200 entry fee $100 Boater $100 non boater $5000 total = 5 places, End of story

Lake Athens say Oct 27th? Who has a set of scales to weigh the fish? We could set up one of the moderator's to to collect the money between now and OCT 1st, first 50 entries of $100 boat and non boaters, via PAYAPL
