I will need a scale and some weigh in bags for the event. Contact me if you have this available. I'll check with ABA - Anthony since he may still be able to provide this. Thanks.

Anyone who has product they would like to donate, please contact me about feasibility.

If you're a boater and for some reason you aren't sure if you can make it or not until the last moment (EverStart, etc.) you can show up on Saturday by 7:30 AM and we'll work something out as best we can. This is not a high pressure, do or die event.

I was hoping to fish this one, but, unfortunately, I can't. I have to work. Sorry about that. I was really looking forward to it.
