Why would anyone have a 150 boat tournament at a ramp that only has 30 parking spots ?

I wish I knew the answer to that. Around here they have 150 boat tournaments on a 2400 acre lake which is insane.
2015 Triton 19TRX, 225 Optimax
2006 Skeeter ZX190, 150 Yamaha SHO
1989 Ranger 373V, Mercury 2.5L 200hp
16' Tracker jon 25 hp Merc 2 cycle
Is there not any secondary parking? We've had 400 boat tournaments here before with only about 50 parking spots but there's secondary parking that easily handles 400 or more.
Doesn't seem very bright if it was known that there'd be that many entrants.
And I especially appreciate the satire in such a question being posed by someone who goes by 'logjam'.
There's no apostrophe
Wow.........that is just asking for trouble. Good day to find another lake or river.
This is a direct result of "grow the sport" but the playing field stays the same size.Originally Posted by logjam
Well that ain’t to smart.
What lake and ramp? And tournament?

that's probably going to be a logistics nightmare and give unnecessary opportunities to several local thieves.
They are simply inviting disaster.
I thought the purpose of the weigh in permit you're supposed to get from NC Wildlife was supposed to prevent things like that. When I talked to the lady a few years back she said they're not supposed to issue permits for more than 80% of the parking spaces at the ramp; so 24 in this case.

Sounds a lot like Lake Bruin in LA. In January there will be 5-7 clubs all fishing the same weekends and launching out of a ramp built for 20 boats and hardly any parking.
There's lots of decaffeinated brands that are just as tasty as the real thing.
Hi Mike.
sounds like a log jam.. what lake was it? Tar?
That gives every boat their own 16 acres to fish don’t suppose there are ever any on the water disputes over fishing spots.
