Online Striper Challenge for October

[JAR]

you catch two fish over 36" = basically you'll win.... the judge can estimate the length

I just forgot to post the list, but what does that have to do with signing up?

This is an online challenge, perhaps if there was more visibility then more people would sign up.

I just want to say that even though I am not participating in this .. this month... I really like the idea. $20 is not too much money(basically it is just 3 rattle trap type lures). It adds a lot of interest and fun to our sport.

The ONLY reason I am not participating is that I JUST bought my Kayak two weeks ago, a roof rack to carry it, a paddle, a life vest, and basically a whole Salt water tackle setup.. so I am tapped out money wise. I really hope that this type of thing is encouraged and continues (though once it gets cold I am out.. way to wimpy to fish in the snow).

I updated the allowed measuring devices to any standardized measuring device. Obviously hawg trough is still preferred and if you plan to fish any MAKBF events next year it will be the only allowed measuring device. It is well worth the $15!!

I see where he's coming from, especially if he is strictly shore bound. Easy for yak guys to move to a productive location, shore guys not so much. And your right too, the current leader can easily be topped with all of the mid to upper 20 inch fish in the bay right now.

The event is a month long anyone just fishing from shore can fish many different places too

$20 entry fee is reasonable. I was hoping you would have posted the list of people already signed up as requested earlier in the thread. Also posting pictures of the top fish would help. This would be my first challenge and the rules seem simple but here's a question... I just picked up a Frabill Bump Board and max size is 36 inches. What do you do if you catch a fish bigger than the measuring device?

This annoys me, man. Just sign up and go catch a couple more.

What's holding people back from signing up? Would more people sign up for these types of challenges if we allowed any standard measuring device? Or if the cost was only $10?

Give me some feedback here so we can hopefully get more people involved in the next event next month.

I'll sign up for $30 if my 36.5 and 35 count. I really should've signed up

Two fish 27" and 20"

two people in the 40 club, daaaammmnnnn!
I wanna get me some too!

Those totals are for two Fish

So once we submit that is it, or can we update if we get something bigger? I don't expect any larger stripers where I fish most of the time until much closer to the deadline. Going to be tough...I am not expecting to exceed 60" on two fish.

Are these updates posted on 1 fish alone? I am going to be closer to those numbers on 2 fish combined most likely unless I fish somewhere else.

It's a total length of two fish. Yes you can continuously upgrade your fish throughout the month.
