Tough for us northern boys to run clear south for a tournament.

Rough year for all three of the directors of JJ, as far as respective personal lives.

However, our initital tournament was too much of a success to let it go....so we are toying with the idea and some dates. We would either do it in late May or sometime in Nov/Oct.(more likely) Also thinking about incorporating daytime fishing into the mix as well as bumping the North Weigh Station further north and adding a third weigh station in South Miami/Upper Keys.

Im sure you will hear more at some point...Purple Fever and Baitwasher thanks for the props.....we have had several emails and im's along similar lines and we appreciate the comments.

Johnny



Ill keep you guys posted.

I think Jupiter Inlet would be a perfect weigh station

That was definitely the funnest Swordy tourney of the year, you guys did awesome! Don't put Litigator at the North weigh-in, I don't think he likes me Hopefully our 152.7lb fish will place this year.
