Official 2010 Big Hammer Challenge Reports,Pics-Leaderboard

Fine fish there clak. How many did Hammer catch? He is on every page. I guess we may have to make a trip to Miami. Look forward to meeting the folks I'v been talking to on here. Gona bring a couple videos with me. That Sean Watson 9'8" Mako in the afternoon, on video. Big Tiger, on video. Yall gona love the end of the tiger vid. When I was waist deep following her tieing the tail roap, Monica videoed her feet. . A slight bit of cussin but some serious silence too. You guys catch alot of good fish consistantly, we just got lucky at the right time. I never looked at this tourniment as a competition, Just a good reason to fish more. I dont feel like we competed against yall, we competed with yall. If the tourniment would not have been on, we would not have been fishin. Once again I am honored! Joey said its the greatest accomplishment of his life!:mrgreen:

Had a great time again in this tourny love the competition thanks will

sorry gave you the wrong number on the phone the bull was 7'10'' but no worries

I think in the future there needs to be a better way to keep count of sharks caught

Next year I will need two volunteers to help me run this tourney or I won't have it again.My wife and I work like two dogs to make this run as smoothly as possible and without her I could not do this.We are always open to any and all suggestions and more open to anyone that wants to help out.

IDEAS
1)someone to keep a count of sharks caught daily by team name
a)overall total sharks
b)track biggest sharks -daily
c)totals by species
d)totals by line class
e)track biggest by Juniors
f)track biggest by female angler etc,etc,etc

Folks this is hard work.

a will dont even worry about it im the guy for the job

WILL ill help you with anything you need. count me in

i am sure we can all pitch in to help good jod to all

I have a suggestion... instead of letting anyone post whatever they want, whenever they want. Send all submissions to you via email and you judge the entries and then you post them after thay have been approved. and if there is any disputes, you and the angler or team captain can work it out before anything is posted. I have ran several local "fish" tournaments this way and have had no issues like this. Either you count it or you dont, there is no trying to count everything at the end of the tournament. I have fixed my posts on pages 21 and 22 sorry for the inconvenience. I have 11 sharks just as I told you, now there are no duplicates and every shark is accounted for. if there is an issue contact me.

these were caught about 30 mins. after the tourney was over
