Can a person fish in this with a one man ponton, the one that has one seat. They are similar to a Float tube but the person sits higher out of the water. My nephew owns one and I would like to know if he could enter the contest if he wanted to before I tell him about it.

As long as he has no motor on it we will allow him to fish from it in our events. Not 100% sure on the Southwind hosted event, you would need to call those guys.

Any considertion to move the July 30th date (maybe into August) to avoid the Southwind tourney that same day? Some of us would like to fish both.

Hi OEX crew, I see on Southwinds' site
http://www.southwindkayaks.com/Kayak...Bass_2011.html
That registration for the July 30th event will be capped at 100, and that registration is over the phone. Do you know if they are registering yet? Will there be an on line form through OEX?
Thanks!
Roger

I think you'll have a hard time getting 100 anglers seeing that Mission Bay had about 80? so I don't think it'll be a problem getting in. Anyhow, like that we are all launching from one location but also notice that we are losing an hour of fishing seeing how most other tournaments in years past have gone to at least 1:00. Just an observation.....can't recall if the Southwind tournament last year had these hours.
