When the Sherry program went to 8 pounds I started to tune it out.

1 real sherry should get 5 entries into the raffle, ten pounds 1 entry, 8 pounders get a participation ribbon, since that’s what that is (sorry if you have your mug on the website with an 8 pounder hahaha)


you dont have to send a picture in of your mug... just the fish on measuring device at least 24 inches length

they dont take your 8 pounder out of the lake... you get to release it, same with over 10... they ask you take 3 scales from the fish and send them in for DNA testing... if you dont have someone there to witness weight .. you just take a picture of it on measuring device... over 24 inches is all that is required. Is that too much to help TP&W oh.. they do ask what lake you caught it on..


That last sentence is a deal breaker, and it should be for you too, judging by where you fish smile


was that you I met and and you said you caught everything on a carolina rig when anyone within a hundred yards could hear the rattletrap?

A good rule of angling philosophy is not to interfere with another fisherman's ways of being happy, unless you want to be hated.

Think I may have just helped to derail my own thread.

I asked one of the guy that transports the fish during the Legacy ShareLunker season from Ivie. He told me that they have a truck with a tank that stays in San Angelo that comes and picks the fish up at Elm Creek or Concho. I have seen them come and fill up with water at the boat ramp there. They have an almost Identical one that comes from Athens. They pick up the fish after they take pictures for their Facebook and website. Then they meet the other truck at Goldwaithe TX That is equipped the same that comes from Athens. The people change trucks and the fish stays in the original truck/tank. And they go back to San Angelo / Athens. I asked him Why Goldwaithe? it is not halfway? He said that by the time they fill up with water and take pictures it is halfway time wise.

No, I'm not one to lie about what I'm throwing, but who knows, maybe we've seen each other, haha

I think its got a nice ring to it, Sherry, like a nice women born from the 60's. The guide goes by the name of Brady Stanford, have you met him? I can't speak to his intelligence, but he seems to be catching his fair sher of sherrys.

You clearly don't know me AND did listen when I was explaining who I was last year.

I am from and have always maintained property in Nacogdoches Co., TX. Here I am, living back in Nacogdoches Co., TX it was nothing more than about a 14 or 15 hour drive away. Probably in about 5 months, I'll get back in my vehicle and head back to MN. Concerned?

Only the 13lb+ entries that are donated to the Athens hatchery get a crack at the prize money and free replicas. They should never have called the 8lb and 10lb class fish sharelunkers.

There are two options that would fit your wishes. “Private” and “unknown”


Except that didn't work for Milliken, did it? I think his wish was for his Sherry to be listed as "unknown", that didnt end very well, I don't have any idea, but i think that was the beginning of this issue.

Agree the smaller fish are just nice fish, they should enter the 10 pounders into whatever the bassmaster magazine used to do if they want to show it off.

Are you sure in terms of the drawing, it looks like there are two drawings for 5K each. One for the legacy 13+ pound variety, and one that doesn't specify. I think thats why Ben was entered into a tournament that was $10K or whatever it was, 2, 5K drawings, im confused.
