Why don't you guys just ask the tournament director? He's already posted on this thread.
See post #50, he's the man.

I meant ask him again right here publicly for clarification. If this rain continues I don't see the high water ramp as an option, Paynetown would be much better. First one of the year and no other tournaments happening yet it could draw a crowd making the high water ramp a cluster.
I went past Lake Lemon and Monroe today. Both are pure muddy, whitecapping. Water temp at Lemon was 41 from fisherman taking out. He did have a couple of crappies, but couldn’t hold the boat to fish in the wind. At Monroe, didn’t see a boat on lake or a parked vehicle at Cutright high water launch. Easy launch there as water is only a foot from top of launch. Back it in and launch! Water as far as you could see in main lake was very muddy and whitecapping and wind chill was 35. Dress for cold and wear your life jacket. You accidentally fall in and hypothermia will hammer you.
I sure am glad I don't have to fish this tournament.....sure I'm itching to get out....but it's gonna be TOUGH fishing
Supposed to be 26 degrees in the morning. I’m going to Lemon to check out new electronics and see if I can snag one crappie. Better weather coming for sure.
I fished Monroe on Friday. Water temps were 41-43 all over main lake. My baits were never touched.....lol

We saw water temp of 50 by end of day. Lot of muddy to heavy stain almost everywhere. Zero bites.

So how many boats showed up yesterday and what did it take to win?
The guy that won had two good ones....not sure other than that.
Thanks guys.
Under 10 lbs to win...only 5-6 boats brought in a fish to weigh
