Garrett Pierce had 4 between 6.37# and 7.41 in the first two days. That’s pretty impressive. Also had a 30+ stringer in the Stowaway Sunday Tournament last week end. I would say he is on them. He’s on the lake more than 98% the locals. Dude has dedication for sure

How many entries Mr. Jones ? I doubt you get a answer nor should anyone expect one. It’s all part of the financial part of running the tournament. $261,000 total value in prizes counting boat and rods. Costs of running it are substantial. Sponsorship money comes in. They would have some deal with Bass Pro for the boat and probably Abu Garcia for the rods for sponsor advertising. You need a bunch of total days of entry just to run the thing. All the trailers and such aren’t cheap. Real nice stuff. Advertising, website, staff, lodging, travel, etc. The tour has a substantial risk in guaranteed prizes with no guarantee in the number of entries.. Probably better profit margin in good weather years than poor weather years. Very well run tournament. It has to be a ton more work and expense to put it on than most people realize.

Pretty much spot on with all of the above. We had 960. Thanks for the kind words.

Wow I guessed 10.32 for big fish overall, can you throw me a Costa consolation prize, Jonesy?
