Queen of Kings -- Women's King tournament

JoeZ · 03-26-2008, 05:17 PM

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 butwe'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!! :toast

Rodz,

that's right. As long she and she alone brings it to the boat, you're legal.

Take as many women as you think you can handle and as few men as it takes to keep them in line.

$150 per boat is corret.

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??

Linz wants to know if you'll have t-shirts with that logo on it?

JoeZ · 03-26-2008, 07:17 PM

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.
