havent heard any talk of a 2012 tinboats tourney, will there be one this year?

Yes there will be an "online" one but I am not sure of a gathering some place.

Stay Tuned. I am thinking 2 tournaments running at the same time. A Crappie Tournament and a Bass Tournament.

Im not too good with the fresh water stuff either. I have salt in my blood :lol:
 
A tourny would be great!! I can't compete with some of lakes in the south where 5lb bass are common though... Here in NY, a 5lber is a treasure.

Is there any handicap for that? Maybe size vs. state records? I'm not familiar with how an online tourny would work.

Kind of hard to compete when your state record is the average size catch in somebody else's lake.

Now if we wanted to go with biggest fish. I'll catch me an average 40"+ Musky and we'll see how you Bass boys fair. :mrgreen:

how about [(fish weight)/(state record)]x100

lets use 3 lb large mouth
[(3lb)/(16.8 AL record)]x100= 17 points

[(3lb)/(11.4NY record)]x100= 26 points

I think state records can be deceiving and most are decades old. I fish an online kayak tournament series and they use the AMI calculator for some events to even things up:

And, of course, everything is based on length.

Yea I got some Northern Pike here that eat 5lb bass! Still not as big as a huge Musky, but pretty close!! We do have lake and brown trout that are heavy weights too.

Looks like a winner in my book, certainly helps level the playing field.

i wouldnt mind using that system

edit to add:
since the record smallmouth is a pound heavier than the record spotted bass could we use smallmouth to calculate them...... using largemouth for them isnt fair to me.
