thanks alot seaweed.

seaweed's spending alot of money on this tourny, he told me this morning hes getting a big tent so we can all hide under from the rain plus a custom t shirt and the pizzas im gonna be chipping in for pizza lets make this happen guys if you can just give an extra $10-15 or really whatever you can because hes already spending alot of $$$$$
THANKS GUYS AND SEE YOU TOMORROW!!!

AAron if you do decide to get a tourney going on the west coast i will have your back with set up, money and bringing my gang of atleast 5 shark fisherman anytime!!!!!

thanks alot seaweed lets see how this one turns out an ill put the idea out there again.

We have been having a lot of rain lately, but everyday once 3 -5 pm hits , it is clear skies the rest of the night, and being that our tourney wont officially start until 5 on the dot, i think we are going to have great dead calm weather(just like i have been wishing for) Either way i went and bought us a big canopy, and a tarp for back up.

I also went and had a Custom made 2009 1st Annual Beach Gathering / tournament T-shirt for the angler who lands the biggest shark tomorrow. The back reads Beach Champion in bold letters, which are the exact same bragging rights you will have earned to go with the $100 - plus in cash. You will hold these bragging rights until our next event which will likely be held in Boca Grande like Aaron Bunche mentioned!!!!!

Hope you guys like!!!!
I am pumped to kayak out some big baits and enjoy tomorrow afternoon with everyone, see you there and remember to call me if you have any questions or need help with anything!!!!
