thedonnguyen Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 based on last years battle, i'd probably guess the October 23rd - 29th if it follows the same pattern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaumb Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 I was wondering also. Hopefully I can work it out with the work schedule to get out and fish at least a few days. swimbaitunderground and anglr420 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishEd927 Posted October 15, 2015 Report Share Posted October 15, 2015 A couple of questions on the rules: 1) What constitutes a swimbait? Does a big hammer or Keitech on a lead head count? How about a big jointed wake bait like a mikey sr? 2) On the SUB tourney map it states "MA and GA receive lbs based on the past 4 years of SUB tourney entries". I think it's missing a number before "lbs" in the statement? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's missing a number before "lbs" in the statement? Thanks For #2 on your list: They defined the colors (each having an associated additional lbs) based on state record. The SU admins decided that MA and GA are the exception to the rule and their colors (additional granted lbs) were not based on their state records. GA should clearly not be held to George's standard so I agree with that one. For #1 on your list: The actual definition of a swimbait is about as clear as mud, but if you spend enough time on this site you can get a feel for what people consider to be swimbaits and what they don't. When I'm fishing in the tourney I tend to only fish baits that are widely accepted as swimbaits and stay away from the money minnows and banjo minnows. If SU decided to define it one day then more power to them but that's not an easy task. Save yourself the headache and keep the questionable lures at home. That's just my opinion. Good luck to everyone in it! I'll see ya next year Baigh95, Rogervang, RyanPerrey and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YELOSUB Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 Is there a special code for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atempest Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 I'm assuming they will release the code on the 23rd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
