| I am pleased to announce that the SKA has added the Mack Attack to the 2009 SKA Divison 7 schedule. This event will be the first one on the division 7 schedule. ALL PROCEEDS WILL BENEFIT PACE CENTER FOR GIRLS, INC. The entry fee and payout has been changed and is as follows: $400 entry fee per boat / Payout based on 70 boats KING MACKEREL OPEN DIVISION 1ST- $10,000 2ND- $4,000 3RD- $2,500 4TH- $2,000 5TH- $1,500 6TH- $1,000 7TH- $500 CLASS OF 23 (BOATS UNDER 23FT WATERLINE LENGTH PER MANUFACTURER) 1ST- $3,000 2ND- $2,000 3RD- $500 I am actively pursuing sponsors to guarantee a Junior and Lady Angler Bonus as well as a single engine boat bonus. I would like to add a wahoo and amberjack division but that will depend on sponsorship as well. All of the entry fee money will go to King Mackerel payout. If there are more than 70 boats, the payouts will increase. I would like to urge everyone to explore the SKA at www.fishska.com and learn about becoming a member and competing on the trail this season. If you haven't done it before you should give it a shot. You only need to fish two tournaments to qualify as an angler eligible to fish on any qualified boat for nationals. There are two events on the division schedule that would allow you to fish without extensive travel, the Mack Attack and the Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo. The Biloxi event is close enough to home to not set you back too bad. The standings are calculated by totalling the top three fish over the course of the division season. You don't need a big boat to be successful. In 2005, I qualified for nationals in my 20ft Palm Beach and then teamed up with a crew from Jacksonville to end up 5th in the championship tournament in Ft Pierce. Those of you in 20ft or under boats, pay special attention to the SKA rules regarding qualification for nationals. Membership is $70 and the earlier you register the more Angler magazines you will get. If anyone has any questions, shoot me a pm. Looking forward to seeing you there.

We are in for sure. Is Miller Lite coming back as a title sponsor? If so, may I make the humble suggestion of making sure their frosty cold product is readily available. Preferably served by hot chicks.  Edit: I just read on the SKA site that there is no check out. It will be a new moon that weekend so it will be dark as heck. Take it slow and be careful getting out in the morning

Congratulations Brad, I know how much work has to be put in behind the scenes to make something like this possible. Make sure you bring some brochures by Day Break when you get them ready and I will do my best to help spread the word.

THe OLE tournament.. LOTS OF HARD WORK TO GET THEM BACK. I have never fished in a King Tour. before. If no check out is needed ,this will entice me to enter.WE will be fishing the ADSFR already.. Hope to have more than one species in the Mack Attack. May ruffle some feathers by saying this . Sounds like another 2 trick pony tourney to me..
