BigFoamy Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 What about a Community Lake Tourney? I believe we have lakes and people looking for fun. 4 man trips, 2 per boat kinda thing. head to head, total numbers and size?? different lake per week or month?? I could do Mckenzie lake, i believe russc is also a mckenzie lake guy and may be interested. Could maybe do an out of town overnighter, drink some beer eh Anyone interested? I know it was tried on the river like a "match play" scenario but, dont know how that ever worked out. I would be willing to give this a shot if people are interested. BF Quote
TroutTracker Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 Sounds fun! Haven't had much experience with city lakes, but would be interested in getting out there...and I have a small boat. Do any of the community lakes not require the person fishing be a resident (or a guest of a resident)? Thanks, EM Quote

Do any of the community lakes not require the person fishing be a resident (or a guest of a resident)? Thanks, EM Yes Im sure they would all require a person with a membership. Thats why we would need people living in lake communities to step up and take people out. 4 lakes = 16 or however many there are, including the membership person. I would commit to 4 trips, taking 3 different people/per over the course of the season. Would have to cap the number as each person will have to fish each lake. We get boats for 2 hrs at a time at Mckenzie so that would be the time slot there, it could very from lake to lake. Quote
mdfcontracting Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 This could be tough with liability of multiple boats being on the lake. I know at auburn a resident is supposed to be required to be in a boat but not sure if thats extended to privately owned boats. Would probably need to be something run thru the residents association. I dB we get some interest here ill inquire. Quote

I dB we get some interest here ill inquire. Im thinking you only have to take two bots at a time. over a period of the season you make 2/3/4 trips depending. On a particular day you could have yourself and three others at wherever you are and i could have myself and three others at my lake and so on. Then you switch lakes. I was going to more or less work it where i was just taking three buddies out. Anyways, there been around 115 looks with two comments that arent mine so I'm guessing it wont fly anyways. Quote
mdfcontracting Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Well if it doesnt id be interested in trading days depending on schedule. Either way i have a 14 ft jon boat that i could put in wherever its allowed, ive had it in auburn and mindapore before. Is there anywhere thats known for big fish? Or id love to hit some brookies given the chance.... Quote

RussC Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 This sounds interesting, I have heard that at Bonavista only resident cardholders are allowed to fish. This came from a fellow I work with that is a resident. He said one card, one fishing rod in the gate. Not sure about other community lakes, but I wouldn't mind trading some days with others looking to try out a different community lake. By the way the boats go in the water tomorrow (April 1) at Mckenzie. I may have to go and warm up the casting arm tomorrow. Quote

Everything was ready except they didn't put the boats out. Fishing was good, got lots between the three of us!! Quote
