Sunday Jon boat tournaments

Just looking to see who might be interested in fishing some Sunday tournaments. My work schedule doesn't allow for to many saturdays. So I figured this might work for others as well and maybe give a second tournament on some weekends for others. I will get rules and schedule together later. But the rules will be the same as most and will mostly be north ga lakes. ALL anglers will be welcome. No exceptions. Will be electric only. No gas motors. Will be once a month on Sundays starting in January. We will fish a different lake every month and a random classic. 100% pay back. And all club dues will go to top three in classic plus regular tournament dues. If you have any questions or comments. Please feel free to share. Just trying to get something rolling. Thank you for reading.

You gotta work hard at putting bigger pots on the line. The last year I ran JBA we were pretty close to 20 boat average first half of season then guys dropped out because of points

Hey just wondering if this is still happening and how will I be able to sign up thanks

I miss those days of lil water and JBA and the Jbait. Jonboat clubs need guys like you and Terry Lee back running things.

Sorry for the lateness. We will be starting up this sunday. I will have rules for everyone that shows up. I will try to get them all up here before the weekend. Club dues will be 50$ a boat and each tournament will be $50 a boat. All club dues will go to the winners of 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in the classic. Points throughout the year will be on a 10 point system. Points will be given to the top 10 boats. Again. Sorry for the lateness. I will work hard on the rules to have them posted soon. Thank you.

You will be able to sign up at the ramp.

I plan on fishing solo. Will that be $50 for me to fish or $25?

I'm liking this once a month deal.
