Steel City Bassmasters Update 4/11/16

Steel City Members,

Congratulations to Barry Koblitz, our Pomme de Terre champion from this past weekend.

Now we look ahead to the upcoming Table Rock event on April 23.

There are just a few cabins still available for the weekend of the tournament at Lazy Lee’s, so call 417-338-2253.

Joy has informed me that she will serve pizza for dinner to those staying at the resort on Thursday, April 21.

Pete Wenners will be our guest speaker at the pre-tournament meeting on Friday. Joy would like to get the group together for a picture to help celebrate the 10-year anniversary of their ownership of the resort.

Bring something for the grill on Friday evening. We will provide salad, potatoes, etc.

For all those in the tournament who are not staying at Lazy Lee’s, there will be a $10 ramp fee to launch your boat at the resort, so plan accordingly.

Danna’s BBQ will be catering the Saturday evening meal, following the tournament.

I look forward to seeing all of you there.

Heagy

2016 Tournament Registration and Launch Procedures

Steel City Members,

All of you have received the pocket calendar, on that calendar is the name and number of the three officers for the club.  Should you have any issues before a tournament you can call these numbers to make us aware of the situation.

The sole purpose of drawing numbers to determine the tournament launch order is to provide an orderly and safe start to our events.

Because there is no preregistration or partner draws for our tournaments, we never know exactly how many boats will be entered in any event.

Our policy is to place 15 numbers into the hat. The first boats to pay their entry fees pull from those 15 numbers. Once they are gone, we add 5 more to the hat and continue the process, adding more numbers as needed.

The “first pay, first draw” system will continue. Anyone who wishes to have a lower number in the draw must make the effort to enter the night before with Ed or arrive at the launch site early enough to pay their entry fee and draw from those first 15 numbers in the hat. If you arrive late, please realize that you will likely have a high launch number.

In general the tournament registration will be handled the night before and the location will be announced here or 30 minutes before takeoff at Ed’s Truck.  If Ed is not at the event the instructions will be posted here on the website.

This is a simple and effective process.  Try to have exact change when registering for a tournament ($25 each or $50 for a team for regular events excluding Table Rock) as this will make the process go faster.

Heagy

2016 Lake of Egypt Tournament – Check In location

Welcome Anglers… Look for Ed Montgomery around Pyramid Acres on Friday afternoon or Saturday morning to pay your entry fees and pick up your takeoff number. If you have not already signed your liability waivers you will need to do so before the tournament (Guests included).  Also your annual dues of $65 must be paid before the tournament.  If you do not pick up your takeoff number before the tournament you will not be able to fish unless you have contacted Ed (or another a board member) IN ADVANCE of the takeoff.

Guests are welcome to fish with a member and the guest can fish 1 time per year at the regular season tournaments (not including the table rock Invitationals).

Agenda for meeting

  • Review Lets go Show Results
  • Need to look for an alternate location for the Jacksonville tournament since they do not allow tournaments on Saturday this year and the remaining Sundays are drawn by lottery.
  • Read Minutes from 12/20/2015 meeting
  • Give financial report
  • Pocket Schedules have not been made yet and will be made after the replacement location for the Jacksonville Tournament is determined.
  • Confirmation of the Lake of Egypt tournament was received for March 19th and we are the only tournament on the lake that day.
  • Review of Banquet
    • Thanks to Carl for arranging the food and beverages for the banquet. All was good.
    • Some of the awards were ordered with the old date of the banquet (It was moved up 1 week) but the awards were ordered and received.
    • Thanks to Darin Harnetiaux for providing the deserts for the banquet.
    • Thanks to Karen and Jay Wells for providing the cake for the banquet.
    • A motion was made and approved at the last meeting to pay for one Shriners Tournament entry and was to be raffled off at the banquet but the dates conflicted with the tournament dates therefore the raffle was not held.
    • Winners of the raffle were Carl Gansner with 3rd place, Arthurs friend for 2nd place and JC Markell won the grand prize of a $250 Bass Pro Gift certificate.
  • Replacement location for the Jacksonville tournament was discussed. It was decided that we would vote on 5 lakes as the replacement location. Rend Lake received 7 votes, Clinton Lake received 11 votes, Trueman Lake received 1 vote, Lake Springfield received 3 votes and Carlyle Lake received 2 votes. Therefore it was decided that the replacement tournament location would be Clinton Lake and Jon Sackett will be obtaining a permit for the tournament. It was discussed that if the Clinton Lake tournament cannot be held that we could possibly do Rend Lake but there is an Anglers Choice tournament there the same day.  Update: The permit was obtained for Clinton.
  • Ed is compiling a list of email address for all members. If you do not receive emails please contact Ed or Larry to update our records.
  • Tournament Procedures were discussed
    • A courtesy bump board will be provided at the weigh in but is not official.
    • Ed will put on the website the location where tournament entry fees can be paid in advance if desired. These will be posted 1 day before the tournament so check back often if you do not see it.

o   The official communication method for the Club News will be via email and every letter will be posted on the website automatically in chronological order.  Please update your email address with Larry or Ed.

The 50/50 drawing was won by Don Miller.
