| I'm happy to finally announce the Paradise Queen of Kings Women's King Mackerel Tournament will be May 30 & 31 at Paradise Bar & Grill on Pensacola Beach. After a few weeks of work, it's official! $150 entry fee per boat. $2,000 guaranteed first prize -- not a lot I know but we're working on it. If we get 25 boats: 2nd: $1,250 3rd: 750 4th: 500 5th: 250 (payouts may still be adjusted if sponsors keep coming READ AS might go up). Friday night captain's meeting with sign out after the reading of the rules. NO SHOTGUN START. It's a 1-day so Friday night, sign out and we'll see you at the scales. We're working on getting a sponsor for a wahoo and/or dolphin jackpot which would be $20 per boat. Winner splits the pot with the RFRA. Calcutta? Yes. 200/100/50 with a 50/30/20 split -- 10% to the RFRA. It's not a Chix event so we're not hiring captains -- bring your boat and fish it. Guys can drive, bait and gaff but mama must reel it in. Plain and simple, this is just going to be a good time and a chance to highlight one of the great unknowns of Pcola Beach -- Paradise Bar & Grill. And also raise some dollars for the RFRA. Questions? Let me have'em.

| so the person driving, baiting, setting the spread, downriggers etc. can be a man? So if a rod goes off, trolling for example, as long as the woman grabs the rod, fights the fish, and brings it to the gaff with no assistance, this is legal?

sounds like a good tourney and I think we will be in. Do have a question. Is there a one male max rule? Got a buddy and his wife that might want to fish but he'll want to come along for the boat ride. And $150 is per boat right? No max females? Give me an excuse to load the boat up with women and Linsey not get mad!!

| Rodz, that's right. As long she and she alone brings it to the boat, you're legal. FizzyLifter (3/26/2008)

Sounds GREAT!!! Looking forward to it. 25 boats shouldn't be too hard to get. I know a 12 year old girl that will be looking forward to this. One fish per boat??

We're working on Tees now.
I just talked to the artist -- Andy Marlette, the PNJ cartoonist -- and he's going do give me a 1-color logo because four color shirts cost $$$$ and one color just costs $$.
Jim, I'm sure we can find some lovelies to fill the boat and Amanda, if your boy is working, I'm sure there will be no trouble filling a crew.
Brad, one fish per boat. You can kill as many as you want for the grill or dip, but just bring me one at the scales and I won't hurt anyone.

You got it kid, check your e-mail.
Amanda,
If you need a crew this girl (Fashionfish) really can hold her own. She's good but don't ask her about losing grouper at the boat.

| Joe, You can Count us in. Sounds like a great time. The wife is all excited, especially since we are not allowed to fish with the Fishin' Chix anymore. I will try to spread the word and get some more entries. David

I knew you'd be down. I'm putting it up on kingfish connection sooner or later. Tomorrow prolly.
Should be a blast and that's all we're aiming for -- a good time.

When was the last time somebody in a king tourney had their spot picked out 2 months in advance? This may be the most competitive kingfish tournament of the year. I hope you are ready for this Joe.

| David, This is kinda overwhelming. My goal for the whole thing was a little fun tournament, get some fish to the scales and drink beer. 25 boats, nothing serious. I wouldn't be surprised if we beat 25 easy and are abel to jack the payout way up. Would anyone onject to a 1-2-3 payout, that way we could raise the cash prizes right off the bat?

Joe, Yeah I bet you will be surprised at what kind of turn out you get especially with an entry fee of $150. That's the problem with most of these Billfish and Kingfish tournaments they jack up the entry fee to where it is cost prohibitive especially with the price of gas these days. I think a 1-2-3 payout is reasonable especially with 25 boats you are still paying out more than 10% of boats.

Sounds like a pretty good deal Joe. For a $150 entry, I don't see having only a 1-2-3 as a problem at all. Let me see if I can round up a boat load of lady/jr. lady anglers........ I know my jr definately want to fish it.
