To all the teams,
Just want to let everyone know that if I cancel this tournament for August 26 that I will let everyone know by 6pm Saturday the 25th. I will have a member post it up for me on the web site at 6:30pm on Saturday the 25th of August. Now I want everyone know that I will cancel all tournaments if it calls for anything like 10-20 knots and 15-25 knots and anything that says 2-4 foot waves or bigger for the morning hours. I want everyone to have fun fishing and nothing go wrong and anyone getting from getting hurt out there. So if you are planning on staying the night at Muskegon to fish this tournament then you better look yourself and make your own decision if you think it is worth it or not. Because I will cancel any tournament that I feel is not safe for anyone. I will get the latest wave report as possible before I do make any decision on any cancelations.

Now if anyone cannot make this event please let me know as soon as possible. I was told that the Gold Coast tourney is on Saturday the 25th and if that gets canceled then they will have it on Sunday the 26th. I am not canceling this tournament because others want to fish the Gold Coast tourney. So if you have to fish the Gold Coast tourney on Sunday and cannot make the fishing league because of it. I wish you guys the best of luck and hope you can win it. We will miss you all if you cannot make this event.

Good luck

Caznik

Safety is the #1 concern on the big lake. You made the right call! I was up this morning and watched the storm come in. There was even 1/2" sized hail, to go along with the terrential down pour. I listened to the radio this morning and finally heard a wave report around 6:15, 2-4'ers.

I hope to be able to make it to the next one in two weeks.

[rdfishin]

you did good rich sea-mac and i were in our tents when the storm hit and it was a good one the tent my wife and i were in ended up falling and about six inches of rain in the bottom of it we just got finished drying out every thing around six this evening. the ones that wnet home sat. night missed all the fun.

VG call Rich. I slept in my truck cap that night. I was in the bath house when the storm hit. I would much rather be under my truck cap than in a tent, when bad weather strikes.:)
