The Stinger Challenge is a fishing event with everyone on the same playing field. Everyone receives the EXACT SAME lure package at a discounted price! Everyone is limited to having no more than 6 lines in the water at one time. This gives the person with 2 people in the boat the same chance as someone with 4 people in the boat. The lures in your lure package are the only lures you are allowed to use. If you loose one or all of your baits, you are not allowed to replace it/them with another lure from your box. What does is cost to fish in the event? There are two costs associated with this event. One is the entry fee for the event($15.00($5.00 go's to big fish pot)), and the other is the cost of your lure package($36.00). The total costs is $51.00.

What color are the baits in the lure package? You will not know the colors of your lures until the morning of the event. This is another elements of the challenge. No one knows what colors they are getting. Can I just pay for the discounted lure package and not fish in the event? Absolutely not! If you do not show up for the event, your lure package will be DONATED as a prize at the event, and your money WILL NOT be refunded. In the event you sign up for the challenge and can not make it, you may try to find someone to fish in your place. When will I get my lure package? I will have everyones lure package in a bag at the boat ramp, the morning of the event. When the entry fee for the event is paid, you will get your lure package. Fishing Event Rules: 1 - Entry fee($15.00) is to be paid by 4:30am. I am planning on leaving the dock at 4:30am. If you are late, give me a call, and I will get you my GPS coordinates, so you can get your lure package on the water. I will pm everyone who is signed up and give you my cell phone number. 2 - You are only allowed to fish the lures that are in your lure package.

GLF Posted April 25, 2007 Author Share Posted April 25, 2007 A lot of hits...not a lot of members signed up. The price is right for the lure package!Anyone else planning on fishing it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLF Posted May 4, 2007 Author Share Posted May 4, 2007 I have changed one rule. You are not allowed to have more than a two man limit in the boat. It does not make any sense to set everything up so you can fish it as a two person team, and be allowed to have a 3 man limit in the boat to sort through.

Priority1 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 A two man limit??? 7:00 AM is too early to be back in port drinking beer. A two man limit is 10 fish. If you have 6 Kings and start targeting Steel, or Lakers, you would have to release any Kings that may be caught in the process. Just presenting a scenario that I think is legal under the present rules, but may cause some Kings to be released, or culled. A three man limit, as the rules were before the change, would help somewhat. A long drive with a three or 4 man crew, and a two man limit, may limit participation. I'm NOT b----ing about the rules, and will participate even if you go to one rod and one man limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLF Posted May 4, 2007 Author Share Posted May 4, 2007 The goal is to make it so everyone has the same chance to win. A two person team is only allowed to have a two man limit. They are at a disadvantage to everyone else who has 3 people in the boat and can sort through more fish to weigh in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priority1 Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 A lot of hits...not a lot of members signed up. The price is right for the lure package!Anyone else planning on fishing it? The lure package is a GR8 deal. Can participating teams get 2 of them. I already know the answer, but ya can't blame a guy for trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLF Posted May 8, 2007 Author Share Posted May 8, 2007 After a discussion with a member, I have changed the rule back to a no more than a 3 person limit in your possesion. Some people are will be traveling from a long ways away to fish. Makes it harder to swallow the costs of the gas, when you are only allowed a two man limit in the boat.
