Skeeter Owners tournament

Who all is in besides me? Gonna be hot

I'm in, first time, hope it is better then the stories seem.

We will be there.

We're in!

I wish I was going.....have fun & good luck!

In, but can't remember if I signed-up online already...

If everyone that is going responds you might set a TFF record for replies.

Should be good. 25th anniversary

Anyone need a backseater and help with boat expenses ?
My TRITON is in the shop

only time I wish I owned a Skeeter!

,,,Does it count if you were a PREVIOUS Skeeter owner ?
this is the first year EVER that I did not currently own a Skeeter

I have a guest house for rent if someone needs a place

We go every year so we’re in

Don't forget that you will save $20 if you register online.

In

Nope, got to own one.

Too late. deadline was yesterday for online!

In for sure-- haven't missed one since i got my first Skeeter. 20 in a row!

That deadline was for mailed entries. They had to be postmarked by 5/31/18 or else it was $140.00 to register. I literally just registered and got confirmation that it was successful about 5 minutes before I made my post earlier today and only was charged $120.00 for it. Online is still open and still only $120.00 but now onsite or mailed entries will be $20.00 more.

Im in. This is my third one to attend but my first to fish alone. I signed up too late to get the Costas, so I got the rod instead. Anyone have one, how do you like it?

@Mark- Thanks for the reminder i was still able to sign up also to save the $20...More money for baits

The wife and I are in.

Lost my old fishing partner so Im going it alone, I guess!

I’m tryna get in this deal. I don’t have a bug boat...but i got some friends who do!

Ken A go buy us a bug boat, so we can fish it

Mines open

Decided to fish a little on Saturday and from all the Skeeter boats I saw on the lake you would have thought the tournament had begun. Pre fishing for spots that will be packed come tournament day but can't wait. Gonna be my 7th time.

Me and my dad will be there, can’t wait!

I'm in, the rod is pretty good, I have several of them and like them.

I'll be there with my 9 year old.
She has talked about fishing Fork non stop since I told her we are going.
will Lowrance be there and how does one go about getting them to update my graphs?

...fishinchristian.....
sent you back a PM

.......Next year for me!

What kind of rod is it ?

The wife and I are in!!

It's a great time for sure. Even with all the boats, we have had no issues with other fisherman or boaters -- it seems like most folks are there for the "fun" just as much as the fishing, and it makes for a great time for all!!

Now online registration is officially closed.

TFO

Go around Lake Fork Marina looking for a Lowerance guy and have your boat there. They will either walk over and help you right then or tell you when they can help. They may have a trailer set up behind the tent, walk up to the trailer.

Also good luck on you and the kiddo getting the random draw for the shootout with the pro's.

Thanks that would be pretty cool if it happened.

Good to hear, thanks. I may buy a second one if I like it.

Be there, have come to it since 1st one on Lake of the Pines

Will be there. First time fishing with my two sons. It should be fun!

You remember when it was held in October, they used to give out plaques for the top 10 finishers and checks.
It's gotten huge over the years, I didn't know about it until # 7 we've fished everyone since. I have fished a lot of big fish events on Fork over the years, the Skeeter is absolutely the hardest to cash in of them all. Those Skeeter boys can flat out fish. I think I'll have 3-4 secret spots, come tournament day, there will be 2-3 boats on each spot... LOL.......

Yep, put out 4 more small brush piles last week...bet they've all been found by now lol

There's only one secret spot left on Fork and only Bill Kells knows where it is.

I'm rooting for you Pete! Although secretly I'm hoping your 9 year old out fishes you. The smile on their face when that happens is priceless!,lol.

thanks, her and her mother always out fish me! I did such a good job of netting fish this year, Jess is getting me a top of the line custom net in black and red with my name on it for Fathers day! LOL

TFO 7'3" med hey

My backseat is still open pm me if you want to fish the tourney

I'll be there
I missed last year but here's the 2015 model rod



I got a collection of them and they are nice rods

I for one like the TFO's better than the Kistlers

I hope the rod is better than their spelling, i.e. tourment.

Wow!

I had that rod almost two years before I realized it was spelt wrong,

Interesting they spelled tournament wrong on that rod. Might be a collector's item some day.

im in!

I have four of those rods! I haven't noticed either! haha

That's crazy, I would certainly think that someone would have noticed that the "U" shouldn't be there, good grief..

LiL brother drove over the 2 - 515 bridges today at 4, said it looked like a bug boat convention....

Talked to 3 guys yesterday that were down here from Phoenix in 3 different boats to fish it. Thang is nation wide.

Good reason to start calling it Skeeter Owners Derby.
