SOS, is this tournament for lake records only, or a combined total weight like other tourneys. I'll let you know next week if I will be able to fish it or not.

Some updates
I was at Hammonds today and talking with Tim, he said he would only take entry fees at the ramp on the morning of the tournament.
Also you will blast off from the boat ramp in order of entry fee payed. Ex: you pay first you blast off first, you pay last you blast off last. Just like a green fish tournament
