You know what would be real COOOOLL

[abelfisher]

Would be to have a big get together of all participants of this forum.  It would be cool to get to meet everyone in person.  ....and hear all the fish stories!! ;D ;D ;D

We could all go to Glenns house! ;D ;D

[abelfisher]

And NO, I am not volunteering to organize...I just thought it would be cool! ;D ;D

[Will]

Well since Kansas is basically in the middle of the United States it could be in Kansas.

[fishnranger6494]

yeah we could get together and have a fishing tournament

[Fatdaddy150]

That would be one huge fishing tournament. With over 1600 members. Thats 800 boats on the water if we paired up. With an entry fee of $50.00 a person the total payout would be over $80,000.00 my guess is winner would take home over $40,000.00 Could you imagine fishing a tournament with 1600 entries. Talk about some pressured fish!!!

[Chris]

Just split it up and have divisions then take the top 50 to have a winner takes all.

[Chris]

Fatdaddy get it done lol

[bassackwards]

I get to choose who I pair up with!

[Phishn_Phool]

Wait till everybody is looking for warm weather and come down here.  but you can't all stay at my house LOL

[BD]

I would go to Kansas for a meet.

I can fish, but I want to be paired with a boat owner. lol

[Nick_Barr]

Have it in Washington! then the entries might not even top 50 people! LOL

[Rattlinrogue]

"The Bassresource Master Classic" we could call it.

[Guest hydrillagorilla]

This is really a great idea!  Has HUGE potential given the membership at Bassresource.com!  

Cedar Bluff - KS - is my vote (close to home) but anywhere there is big bass is ok by me.  

[BD]

I got a lake here that gets alot of pressure, but it sure holds some hawgs, and would be a great learning expierence for pressured lakes, and how to fish them.

I think we could get about 15 boats on it.

[Fatdaddy150]

I think we should let Glenn work out all the details. I would be more than happy to attend and meet everyone from the site. Sure would be cool.

So what do you say Glenn?? Please organize the first BassResource Master Classic. It would be the biggest bass fishing tournament ever!!!

[fishinfool]

i say we go to tennessee. i've been wanting to fish those lakes up there.

[Phishn_Phool]

After I thought about this a little, I definately DO NOT want you to come here.  I would get beat on the lake I live on an the would be embarassingLOL

                               CPR ;D

[Big_Bass_Rich]

That's quite a haul for a little Canuck boy like me LOL but if it were sometime during the summer I could make it. Someone should really get this organized it could be really cool!

[Landis76]

A MO lake would be better. KS lakes are boring IMO. Beaver, Table Rock, Tanney Como, etc. I'd do it. Good idea Abel!

[roadwarrior]

Tannycomo is a cold, trout lake between Table Rock and Bull Shoals, it won't work. Beaver, Table Rock and Bull Shoals are all good choices.

Tennessee lakes? Well, there are a lot to choose from. Guntersville in Alabama would be another interesting destination.

I don't fish tournaments, but I'll be there for this one!

Com'on Glenn...

[Glenn]

What an interesting idea.    Tournament or not, a get-together of sorts would be fun.

I'm flattered you think I can run an event like this.  A web site is one thing, running a large-scale tournament is entirely different.  That said, I'm not against it, and I do have experience organizing events.  However, I would need somebody with deep experience running large-scale tournaments to pull something like this off.  I'm willing to play an integral role, of course.  Any volunteers?

I presume something like this simply doesn't happen over night, so we're probably looking at 2006 to get everything squared away.  However, a more casual get-together may be more feasible in the near future.  Who knows?  After a couple of annual events, it could end up being the "Sturgis" of bass fishing!  ;D

[Hot n Tot]

I'd attend a tournament or get together.  

I say we all go visit Raul.

[lookin4lunkers]

I'm up for it, this sounds like a great plan. Sturgis of bass fishing that sounds great. Even a small % could go back into this site or into the next years needs for the 2nd annual bass resourse master classic.

[Landis76]

OK Glenn, here is what you need to do. If everyone is really serious about this, you need to get an idea of how many people would actually attend. So I propose you put a poll up on the main page like you usually do and have people vote on a lake or region. OR you could just make this a tour in which one person is the tourny director of a certain region and the people in that region fish that tournament. So you can have a regional winners and the overall winner. These tournaments would be paper tournaments that measure lengths and the overall winner would be determined by points.

Just some ideas... 8)

[Redtail]

If you could get enough people to hold a tournament in different parts of the country, you could certainly do it that way.  Instead of having one tournament, you could have say 50 all over the country and we could attend the one we lived closest to.  Then if you wanted to take it to another level, those 50 winners could meet somewhere to find out the true champion of "Glenn's Excellent Fishing Adventure."
