is that a guaranteed prize for first place of $5,000 for each day ??

Is there going to be a seperate captains meeting for both days of fishing since there is a seperate entry fee, or is friday night going to cover both days ?? Making a decision for Sunday's wind/WX on Friday might be a tough call for smaller boaters.

Brian- If you call David Fitch he can explain tourney rules, he should have them on website soon. WEbsite is www.bgcfloundertourney.com. We have 23 sponsors already and should be a full payout. doing a 2- day tournament where you have option to fish 1 or both days. Small boats should like option to pick the best weather day rather than be stuck with a nasty day that is not quite a small craft, which has happened in the past. Its going to be a largest 1 fish weighed per each day fished, if you fish both days you could win 2 of the seven payouts. The 10,000 will be spread over 7 places and lady jr and sr prizes. Hope to see you in it. Chris -former tourn. directer. and tourney board member.
