Looks good Hutch BUT can you change the formating of the Southern schedule. I did not notice it at first.

My suggestions would be:
North Schedule:
South Schedule:

Great schedule. See you all on the water.

I like how the North circuit is all packed in the spring with the TOC in June. Leaves the 2nd half of the year open and family vacation travels in July.

I like it fellas!

[N.A.R]

SATURDAY AND FREAKING SUNDAY.....Thank GAWD!

This is why I bought my boat!

[CharleyA]

Have you guys ever considered Martinez as a third viable southern venue? It fishes way bigger than it looks on a map & the fishing rocks. Only being 30min outside of Yuma, I dont see any problem handling a 100 boat tourney there.

[S. Bailey]

martinez is crowded in a 40 boat team tournament . Def not a good idea...

[FinesseKid]

why 2 at Havasu and not a southern tournament at Diamond Valley?

[S. Bailey]

DVL would actually be fun , but to may restrictions on motors and quagga's prob. and not to mention its tiny ...

[bigbass111]

2 Havasu events doesnt suck for S.Bailey...



HUh Huh...am I right

2 on Havasu is fine but another venue would be nice....what about that little wind tunnel to the north Mohave...

[S. Bailey]

bigbass111... in no way, shape or form am I gonna argue with you
ahhh screw it put one on mohave ! that lake will bring out the man in ya !

[TEAMDEADMONEY]

The Schedule looks good Hutch!!

Looks like the balance of power in the South has now officially shifted....

Pete

[Rick G]

Looks great but is the nov event the same weekend as the bassaton?

Yes it is. Rick G.

[hippie]

whats a bassaton

[mark poulson]

whats a bassaton

Isn't that what the female bass wear to make themselves more sexy?

[mark poulson]

South
November 20-21st, 2010 Havasu

The Bass-A-Thon is always on that weekend, and it's too important to all bass fishing to schedule a TOC on top of it.
If that's the same weekend as the Bass-A-Thon, change it. You have plenty of time.
And it's not like Havasu isn't eager for whatever business you throw their way, whenever you arrive.

[TEAMDEADMONEY]

Hutch..... IF you change the date of that 1st event at Havasu you should change it to the weekend before that date or even two weeks before that date because that bite at havasu really starts to toughen up in late November. Just a thought..

Pete

[Bill Hutcheson]

We are working on the date change right now.

As Rick knows, due to the schedules of some of the guest speakers, it is often difficult to nail down exact date of the Bass-A-Thon prior to the DFG Jamborees. Likewise, It is only been in the past three years that Bass-A-Thon moved to the third week in November. It was on Nov 4-5th, in 2005 and Nov 12-13th in 2006.

This aside, we are making every effort to move off of this Nov 20-21st date as the Bass A Thon it is too important an event for Anglers Marine and the fishermen of So Cal to conflict with. Rick has supported Bass guys for many years and we will do our best to support him in return.

Hutch.... let me pound this into your head some more.....

EARLY NOVEMBER EARLY NOVEMBER EARLY NOVEMBER!!!!


there that should work...

Have you guys ever considered Martinez as a third viable southern venue? It fishes way bigger than it looks on a map & the fishing rocks. Only being 30min outside of Yuma, I dont see any problem handling a 100 boat tourney there.

Actually, Martinez CAN support easily an 80 boat field. BASS Fed championship was there in May and it was no problem. Just have to launch out of the lower ramp at Hidden Shores by the dam.

[CharleyA]

Martinez babay!!!

Nobody wants to give their money away to the 5 local Havasu sticks that seem to win every tourney outside of the spawn in their own backyard! Literally.

Do Martinez in November & Havasu during the spawn so everybody has a fair shot.

Chime in Bill as I've asked around and 100boats is doable on Martinez.

Thanks for listening to my 2 cents.

[hippie]

stop your crying people dont change the date there wasnt 1 deal that you couldnt pass up at the bass-a-thon. If they got strippers this year then id say change it otherwise lets fish or order stripper tacos this year rick lets change it up alittle or let Pete be a speaker on why HUTCH should change his NOV date at havasu to an early date. THINK BONE HEADS this is probabbly going to be a late summer we will probably still be wearing banana hammocks in late NOV. Lets get a new boat for the win that sounds like a better change

[TEAMDEADMONEY]

I agree with you hippie.... There shouldnt be a change in the 1st place. The schedule is made and permits are in hand....lets rock it!!!
BUT, if there is a change it should be earlier... IMO..
We'll be wearing Banana hammocks in November this year....cant wait!

Word!

Pete

[hippie]

I dont believe the last FLW tourny was won by a havasu local and the strens neither.

[jrbasspro]
