Wow, that's a nice payout, assuming it get's 100 boats. I gotta imagine it may draw that type of field if they can get the word out.

You fishing that Bell? Isn't there a schedule conflict w/Top Bass. If so, I could see that TB field shrinking considerably....

I should be fishing this tournament, it is the weekend after top bass so no conflicts. I talked to Jon, he's doing it for the right reasons. His main focus is the tbf of michigan juniors and the tbf. He's trying to raise money for weigh-in equpment and fishing equipment for the kids. I don't remember the exact numbers but at 50 boats it's one of the better top prizes in the area.

I got a few emails, 1:5 means they pay 20 places at 100 boats. Talked to Jon, the wording has been changed in the flier.
