Also I have spoken with Paul from MBC who is also having an event at Lake Havasu that weekend and you CAN fish BOTH of the events if you want!!! We had a few teams that fished BOTH last year and it worked out GREAT. You can weigh in on our scale for our event and then weigh in on their scale for their event. It'll be fair for all.
Here is a breakdown for those interested in the entry fees and the options that are going to be offered
Mandatory Entry $335 paid back 95% Insurance $10 Release Boat $5 given straight to Anglers Pro Shop for release boat....covers both days
OPTIONS paid back 100% *Big stringer (each day) equally split each day $40 *Red, White, Blue (overall winners of each flight) $30 *Big Bass (Pays the top 3 big bass of the event) $30 *Top 5 (pays the top 5 in the option) *Mystery weight $20 We have the crowd choose a poker chip with weights on it. The team with the closest weight without going over gets the money. We split the money so that more than one team wins this option...Last weekend at Havasu, 3 teams won $335 each! You must be present to win this option *must be in option to win option money
Thank you for your interest in National Bass West
On other note, The Travel Lodge is offering $55 per night to those that want to stay at the closest hotel to the launch ramp. The Travel Lodge has re-done their Hotel featuring new beds, new carpet, new paint and a continental breakfast in the morning. They are also hosting the bbq lunch for this event. Their information is http://www.travelodge.com/Travelodge/control/Booking/property_info?propertyId=09493&brandInfo=TL just let them know that you are fishing this event for the special rate.
According to the MBC schedule his tournament is on the 20th of March the weekend after this open. Is there another one not posted or did Paul change his dates.
How do you enter one tournament as a team and another as either the Pro or Am? Doesn't make sense. Unless your are picked for the same team, you will have two different weights.
Now that I think of it, it might even help having two different weights. Maybe combined, we could possible come in the top ten. Just curious.
Stickbait is right. Last year we had a team that was fishing the MBC Pro/Am and the Pro/Am team opted to also join NBW. They weighed there limit with NBW and then took their limit over to MBC for a weigh-in also.
bringing it to the top. We are getting real excited about all of the calls that we are getting about this event. I will post the payout for 50 teams, 75 teams and 100 teams so that you can see the payout WITHOUT any of the options. They will be paid back 100% to the anglers so that will be a HUGE bonus to them.
Lynne, the wife and I been hearing so many good reports from friends who fish your circuit,that we will coming up and fish the Open.We are looking to fish a circuit,outside the local Arizona circuits.See ya next week!
Here are the payouts for the entry only for 50 and 75 teams
This is an example of what the payout will be for our 2-day Havasu event coming up on March 13/14, 2010 OH YEA.....PLUS THE OPTIONS . I did not include them in the calculations below..The options are paid back 100% in addition to the payout below...should be good!
Guys and gals this is going to be an awesome tournament with the best payback in the tri-state. Not to mention the awesome fishing. 35 to 40lbs to win.
Heres the info, Lynn sent it to me tonight. they are in Word document format.
I thought that I would send out an e-mail to everyone and let them know about our 2-day event at Lake Havasu. I have been posting on several websites and have mailed out a lot of fliers to several tackle stores in Arizona.
Attached is the information, entry form and rules for the event. I hope that you will be able to make it.
In addition to the 95% payout, we are giving away a houseboat trip to Lake Powell for 4 nights valued at over $4,000. We will draw a boat number at the award ceremony and that team will win the trip. The team must be present to win though.
Here is an example of the payout WITHOUT the OPTIONS (options paid back 100% in addition to the below payout)
we have been getting a lot of interest in this event. For those of you that did not see the other post, we are giving away a 4 day houseboat trip at Lake Powell to one lucky team that fishes the event. No need to buy raffle tickets, all you have to do is fish the event and be present at the awards ceremony on Sunday and have your boat number drawn and you are the WINNER!
We look forward to meeting many of you that have not yet fished NBW.
