Update on the new big fish game. Each captain will have to put in $10.00 to enter the Big Fish Game. You only have to put in one time only and that is it. You will have to pay me before you go out fishing and not at the weigh in. Any captain that wants to fish any of these tournaments can get in this fun game even though you just happen to sign up latter on. In this game the cash will be big and the winning captain can get something pretty good for their boat for fishing if he likes to. Now how this will work is the captain that has the BIGGEST fish of the year will win all the cash, If the captain is not there at the last event, I will mail the check to the winner. Good luck captains…

Sorry bud, I messed up some how and forgot to add your name. I will get with you very soon on the check. Thanks Rich

2009 West Mich. Fishing League Sign Up Dreamweaver Lure Company Thanks to our major sponsors Big Jon Sports and Dreamweaver lure Company. This year the West Michigan fishing league has some nice prizes for the end of the year, but it depends on how many teams we can get signed up and paid. This year I am going to run the fishing league alot different than other years, but it will and can be still alot of fun to be able to meet member's and go out fishing with a bunch of great guys. This year I am going to be working with the termally ill kids like I did for the Dreamweaver and Big Jon event. The cost will be alot cheaper than all other years and we can still have alot of fun fishing together by keeping cash winnings out of the game, but still have cash winning for the big fish event. This year Big Jon sports is going to donate 1 major prize to raffle off at the 5th event and 5 T- shirts and 5 hats for the points champion and the Big fish champ. The major prize can be either a set of rod holders, one downrigger, or whatever Big Jons sports will donate. But it is up to us captain to get a big prize by having as many teams as possible. The more teams we can get the bigger the prize we can get. Dreamweaver lure company is going to donate 5 spin doctors, 5 magnum spoons, 5 regular spoons, 5 SS spoons, 5 T- shirts, 5 hats, and a large lure package to give away. Now the Big jon major prize and the lure package from Dreamweaver will be given away at the end of the year by a raffle off. When you sign up you will receive 10 raffle tickets to try and win either the major prize at the end of the year. If you cannot make all five events that will be fine because I will still give your team a chance to still win the major prize if you cannot show up for the last event, but all I ask from you is to pay for the shipping cost. 2009 Fishing League Date's Sunday May 3rd- Port Sheldon (5am-11am) Blow date- Sunday May 17th- Port Sheldon (5am-11am) Sunday June 7th- Port Sheldon (5am-11am) Blow date- Sunday June 14th (5am-11am) Sunday July 12th- Port Sheldon (5am-11am) No Blow date Sunday August 2nd - Muskegon Fisherman's Landing (5am-11am) Blow date- Sunday August 23rd- Muskegon Fisherman's Landing (5am-11am) Sunday September 13th- Muskegon Fisherman's Landing (5am-11am) Blow date- Sunday September 20th- Muskegon Fisherman's Landing (5am-11am) Cost For Per Team 5 Events- $45.00= $20.00 will go towards Benifit 4 kids and the $25.00 will go towards your 5 big fish entries.

Ok Teams, I will be at the Fishermans landing Saturday passing out lures from 2 till I go to bed. Also I will look at the wave and weather forcast and make my dicision at 5pm. So make sure you check out this post. Thanks, Rich

Ok Teams, By the look of the weather there maybe a chance of thunder storms coming in the morning and waves 1-3 foot. This is the plan: If you get there at the boat launch and it is lightning out. There will be no event till it stops. If we are out fishing and all of a sudden it starts lighting out then. Everyone get in as soon as possible and we will have our weigh in in the parking lot. Event must run till at least 7am. Thanks, Caznik

Ok just remind me at the weigh in. Because everything is in my truck now... Rich

I will let you all know by 5pm if this event will still take place. The only thing I see now is a chance of storms. Caznik
