Can I take some crab pots with me and use it while fishing at the tournament?

Go ahead..Crab away.  Just don't let them make you miss the return cutoff.

Tsunamis all day with golf cart sized hail. Biblical plagues at 0533. The morning launch will be epic!

Way better than last year!  That's all I'm going to say about that.

I've respected this rule but I find it over the top superstitious and pretty silly.  Go to any other ocean tournament thread anywhere else and the 2 weeks prior to the event are full of chatter about the forecast because that's what people are thinking about and want to talk about.  Then here someone asks a perfectly normal and good question and this happens.  I'll pack an extra pack of tin foil for you guys this morning on my way out the door.  Hat making party by the ramp friday night after inspections.

Carry on.

Hard and set rule - I don't think so - those are listed on page 1 of this thread.  Superstition - maybe - but growing up and living here, fishing/camping and playing/coaching a lot of baseball/softball, discussion of the weather too early is fine, just be prepared that it won't be anywhere close to the forecast.  Silly - of course - we all know we have absolutely no control over the weather, but teasing those violate the superstition of it - oh ya!   ;D  All in good fun, of course!

As far as the tin foil, not sure if needed as hats, but you might offer some to help with the leftovers from Saturday's potluck/taco feed!

Good luck and see you out there!

tin foil only works if you haven't had the implant.  :icon_cyclops:

+1.  I'm driving up from Yachats this afternoon to attend the Captain's Meeting, and am wondering whether I need to leave work early to arrive on time.
