Alberta Outdoorsmen Turney Poll
Thats great idea Kim 473
It would be great to have a on line turney for this summer. Alberta Outdoorsmen could give away a few stickers , hats etc. Advertisers on this site might even want to donate. All those interested in this would just have to enter a picture with length of fish and them selfs and holding up some type of Alberta Outdoorsmen 2011 sign |
Hell ya we should.

I think it would be cool to have an online tournament .
Say any species or a particular one , and get some business to put up some prizes , like free tackle , rods , reels , maybe some free motor work or winterizing for free , and have that as a top prize . But no cash . Have a free entry fee . have to post 2 pictures not weight , as its easy to prove the length of a fish rather then weight , as not everyone has the same scale or an official scale . If you'd like I will talk to my contact threw Fish and wildlife and see if we would require such a license for this type of thing . I know in Manitoba have have a similar type of forum and have online Derby's quite often . Id be willing to both help sponcer and help coordinate such a thing . |
This sounds sweet
|
I don't know, the last tourney on here.. I was contacted and asked where to send my prize, gave him the info.. still hasn't come.. huge disappointment
|
Prizes
Should be pretty simple on the prize side. One of us regulars from the North Alberta and one of us regulars from the South Alberta take care of receiving and giving out whatever prizes are won. Then who ever wins is up to that person to contact the prize person and arrange pickup.

I'm totally in.

Any thoughts on that ? |
Is there any Mods here that can give some input as to is this possible or not. Please post your opinions Mods. We dont have a lot of time to get this going for this summer but if it does not happen for this summer can we do it for the winter months and possibly next summer. There are some great Ideas here that can be used for the turney. Lots of prep work to be done so we dont have time on our side. Rules, turney cards, sponsers to be contacted, thread set up for sign up (need three weeks to sign up) prizes set up. Agreed, calgarygringo and BBJ, Great Idea because of the work involved. Would you two do it? (all the work) ? I think we need to get this started no latter than the end of this week if its gonna happen for this summer.
Please post your opinions Mods. Can it be done? |
Details
I have no problem looking after prize distribution for the south folks and or tracking details for it if it is a go ahead. Have done this kind of thing before. We also need someone to be in charge of organizing prizes. That always should be done and have commitments before anything begins. Nothing worse than winning and the prize is not there. Let me know if above is going to fly and I can come up with an info page/ tracking page or whatever else we need.

Think the first thing we need is AO approval. Then prizes and rules. Turney could start June 1st End August 31st Sign up May 7th till 21st Turney cards available June 1st for on line printing. That would give about one week for inputing data of people that signed up and eligable to print off turney cards. Need AO approval !!! Think AO should talk to sponsers and be in charge of prizes and that kind of decisions. |
Was thinking about the prizes and. All we need for prizes is the winner of the class would get their picture in the Alberta Outdoormen Magazine with their tophy fish. It would be great. It would be great if some sponsers would donated prizes but I would be happy-er with my pic in the magazine. I dont need a $ prize. It would make it easy also as you would have already sent your picture in.

The one thing we do need to check out but I haven't done yet as Ive been super busy with my business . We need to find out if even for an Online tournament with no entry fee , and just prizes . Because in the normal situation they want to know how many people will be attending , and the amount of prizes and so on , its quite the process . So maybe Kim or Calgarygringo can fire an email off to fish and wildlife email me first as Ive got a contact . Or I can just do it and find out what the deal may be . I will help with the whole thing both north and south but lets get someone else from the north to take prizes and contact places for prizes for this event . You guys can email me at bbjtackleanydfishingadventures@hotmail.com that's the best way to get ahold of me throughout the day . Let me know if this works for you guys . John Quote:

This is an interesting idea, but, even an online tournament takes time to set up, and bodies to make it happen. All this talk is great but lets not ask AO to set it up, and better yet lets not try and do it on a public forum. It looks like there are ppl willing to put in some effort, so why not take it off line, put a plan together with committed individuals, and then present them to AO. It's way too late for this years open water season, but maybe for next year.

I think this could be done for the month of August . Maybe a month long thing . I have yet to hear back from Fish and Wildlife , If I dont hear anything today Ill phone and talk to them tommorow .
|
Too all those that cant wait till august for the alberta online tourny, just check out
Bountyfishing.com. This alberta tourny will also be alot of fun. I cant wait to win. hahaha. |
Hey BigbadJohn and others .
Its not a fishing derby ,but a photo contest of the biggest fish caught for 2011. You just have to post a picture of your biggest fish laying beside a steal ruler. Picture should include a photo copy of 2011 Albertaoutdoormen logo that someone needs to come up with and post it so we can photo copy it . Simple ! I'm thanking of donating a half a day guided fish trip. |
Can any one of the mods please sticky this post to the top.
Thanks |
Could care less
Not much of a poll in terms of response options to check off?Where is the "who cares" box?
|
Would also like to see more responses for anyone that would like to donate a prize.
This should work so everyone can photocopy it and placed it beside your fish in the picture.......Just need an approval from the site ! http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b3...nting1-1-2.jpg |

Maybe send them an Email . No one has said anything diffrent to it . Like I said before I doubt there is any need for them to give permission except for the respect factor , there have been several other things posted and stickyed , like shooting matches and longest shooting , coyote pictures etc . Dont you work with one of the mods ? Talk to him . Ill let rockymntx know he will come post here . And get him to start a new thread with a sticky . |
