Jeff, I assume that folks can still enter but just won't get a Capt bag.???

Dont you have enough Hobie Bags already????......... :lol:

Hey JSuber.....I see that 32 of the 100 Entrants are still "Pending".....does that mean that those slots and Capt. Bags are "sold".....or on "hold" or what??

I am wondering if somebody wants to sign up and actually PAY via PayPal, would they then get one of the bags available??? My thinking is that "Pending" is just that....Pending and not paid!!

Also, like dreads said above, I have an extra 4-5 nylon Capt. Bags if you want/need them....if you have stuff to put in them, you can have them!!! Just let me know....JohnYaksJax

Aren't Capt. Bags over-rated anyway? Other than a tee shirt that I usually give away, couple of lures that I will never use, several brochures I never take the time to read and maybe one good item, the only thing I keep is the Hobie bag. Now that I have several of these bags, don't really need anymore.

Jeff, if you want to sell my capt bag go ahead and do so. It's for a good cause.

I believe the bags are actually coolers this year? Thought I read that somewhere.

Hey yakermeister ......not really the issue!! Who REALLY cares about what kind of bag it is?? Getting some type of "bag" is an incentive to ENTER THE TOURNEY!!

If giving JSuber some extra bags to stuff with "non-usuable surplus stuff" and that causes MORE PEOPLE to enter the Fishing Classic, it raises more money for the Wakulla Co. Sr. organization....and all of us have MUCH SURPLUS STUFF.....JYJ

No not really, I use my bag, or give it to someone that can use it

First one hundred to sign up get gift bags. When we get to the tournament and some of those folks that signed up, do not show, we try to give them to the next person, like 101,102,etc. This the Hobie cooler bag is $39 and the Glow Fish grip is $15.00 so you get your money back on those two things.

Got talked into this event by Ed Wheeler out of Lake City. So I guess there will be at least two Wavewalk W500s in the event. I'll be fishing with my Emmrods of course. Hope to be able to prefish a few spots on Friday before the Captain's Meeting. We'll see how stainless holds up against graphite and glass.
