Tournament Draw
Thursday, April 26, 2007
The Brainerd Lakes Bassmasters met Sunday, March 18th, 2007, at Bada Bings. The meeting was called to order at 2:00 PM, by President Keith Tuma.
Present were: Troy Bruns, Dan Doughty, Jim Eide, Tony Espeland, Justin Goss, Wade Hollingsworth, Chad Ingualson, Greg Kangas, Nick Koschmeder, Craig Paulson, Scott Roesner, Rod Romine, Keith Tuma, and Craig Wallace.
The treasurers report was read. We have a balance of around $840. Scott still had several people to collect money from for this years Membership, Tournament, and Federation dues.
Craig Paulson reported on the Federation meeting in Medina. The main talk was about the Bass weigh-in procedure and how it will help the Bass survival rate after a tournament.
Jim Eide made a suggestion on changing how and what we use during our tournaments. We’d have a few tubs and baskets where each team’s catch would rotate through the tubs and then would be weighed in the basket. The estimated cost would be around $50 dollars. The members present put it to a vote and it was approved.
We reviewed the tentative schedule of the lakes and dates of the tournaments.
-June 2nd Plate & Sullivan Lakes 7am-3pm
-June 30th Woman Lake 7am-3pm
-July 28th Bay Lake 7am-3pm
-August 18th Lake Belle Taine (Blind) 7am-3pm
-September 22nd Gull River 8am-4pm
The schedule was approved by the present members.
Rod Romine looked into the permit for Lake Belle Taine. Scott issued him a check to get the permit from the Sheriff’s department.
A motion was put in by Keith Tuma to have it mandatory for our members to be State Federation members. This will allow us to send more members to the State Tournament each year. When you become a State Federation member, the Club will pay for your National Federation membership which includes a insurance policy that covers you while you fish incase of an accident. The motion was voted on by the present members and approved.
Things to take care of before you fish:
>They’re a few members with B.A.S.S. memberships expiring or have expired. It is mandatory to have this membership to fish our tournaments. Visit http://www.bassmaster.com/ to renew membership or join. Renewal is $17.95 for a year. New member is $14.95. Hurry to get the gift offers!!
>Club dues are $20 and are due by next meeting.
>Tournament dues are $50 and are due by June 1st.
>State Federation dues are $50 and are due by April 20th.
Club, Tournament, and State Federation money can be given to Scott Roesner our Treasurer.
Currently we have 9 boaters and 6 non boaters, also have 3 unconfirmed members. We tabled the partner draw until our April meeting, leaving the membership open until then. Our bylaws allow for a total of 20 members. The next meeting was set for Wednesday April 11th at 7pm at Bada Bings.
Meeting adjourned at 3:00pm.
