Future Bo James memorial tournaments?

[Quillback]

We had a low number of participants at this years tourney, great bunch of guys for sure and we had fun, but if we are to do this one again in the future I would like to see more participation.

So I am open for ideas, should we try another time of year?  Different place to meet?  

Open to ideas and suggestions.

I would drive and launch anywhere we decide to have it. I am not sure why the turnout was so low. The proceeds go to a great place - the food is good - the company is great - not sure what else you could have done differently Quillback to get a better turnout.

I am with Cheese....Aunt's is as good as anyplace. As Mike said if we get closer to the dam there are tourney's coming out of State Park etc. 

As far as time of year there will always be conflicts no matter the time but I like the late fall as it is a nice break.

I would have been there except for a doctor conflict. Aunts is a great spot as well as Shell Knob-ish. Yes please, do again. I think Bo James has more potential than One Bass.

Something Phil had an idea for was putting an image of Bo on the plaque for next time should we decide to do this again.

Good idea about the image.

How about adding Bo's name and perhaps image on the plaque for the annual OA tourney in March when there are more participants.?

Saturdays are currently a difficult thing for me to make work.  I had asked off for this, but then we had people out sick and it just couldn't happen.

I agree.  I think we "merge" the two events into our traditional March event.  Great way to kick off the season and remember why the brotherhood is so important.

I don't know if it should be deemed a failure from the results of the first event.  The amount of people who attended seems lower than I expected, but I just dont believe the event should be cancelled.   Olliefest generally has 2 attend,  but it still goes on every year
