:toot: HAPPY NEW YEAR!! :toot:
Yes you are reading this correctly. FLBR new year is in April. :-\
I wanted to welcome all of you into a New Year. Clean slate. Past is the past, looking forward to the present and future. Last year was our inaugural year here on Ultimate Bass. We are looking forward in continuing to grow in Fl participation. The rules are simple. Go fish and you have an entire month to post your longest five. Winner, simply gets Bragging Rights. This competition runs month to month.
Now..... for the few that want to take this to the next level. Today opens up our yearly challenge as well. The Florida Bragging Rights Angler of the Year race officially has begun boys. ~c~ Trust me, its going to be competitive. Your month to month participation allows you to accumulate points toward the AOY. Depending on where you place at the end of the month will determine how many points will be awarded to you. For example if you make 1st place you are awarded 10pts. 2nd place gets 9 pts, 3rd receives 8pts, so forth and so on.
This year we also have two bonus point categories. One category is the Big Fish bonus. If you were fortunate enough to catch the longest fish of the month you will be awarded 2pts. Our next bonus is the 100" challenge. Any angler who achieves this feat will not only receive a 2 pt bonus, but will also be included in our very own BR Century Club.
I am very excited to kick this off. Please read over our rules: http://www.ultimatebass.com/bass-fishing-forum/index.php?topic=122445.0
If they work for you, by just saying your "in" means you have accepted and understand these rules.
Good luck every one!!
First question :) Do the bonus points go toward the monthly score or do they go toward AOY points?

To the AOY. Monthly numbers are just length's.
I always forget this part. I'm all in.

Jim
Only the fish you measure count as "Inches" for the monthly total. What you score in Inches compared to where everyone else scores in Inches determines where in the Monthly Contest you place.
Where you place in the Monthly Contest is how you get your points for the AOY Race. Place 1st get 10 points, 2nd 9, 3rd 8 Etc through 10 places. That number or points you earned for placing gets the Bonus Points added to it for the AOY Race.
Get 1st place and have the longest fish? You get 10 points for 1st PLUS 2 points for the big fish for 12 points towards the AOY Race.
The most anyone can make any month would be 14 points if they place 1st, with the longest (big fish) fish, and have over 100 inches in total.
Hope that is simple enough that everyone can understand.
So do I count you "in" Fred?

PinkBass welcome. I see that this is your first official post on ultimate bass. Your profile was a little vague. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What part of FL are you from. How did you hear about us?

Ok well I did get 6 today to allow me to make a limit.
All were caught on a Black with Blue Tail Worm with 1/8 Bullet Weight. I will post a full report in it's own thread.
My computer will only allow me to post 2 at a time due to size so here goes:
#1
12.5 Inches
[attachment outdated - deleted by admin]
#2
14 Inches
[attachment outdated - deleted by admin]
#3
15 Inches
[attachment outdated - deleted by admin]
#4
16.5 Inches
[attachment outdated - deleted by admin]
#5
20.75 Inches
That gives me 12.5 + 14 + 15 + 16.5 + 20.75 = 78.75
Decent start to the month.

Good work Fred. I documented your catch.
I was out today on the St. John's, I put in at Ed Stone Park off SR44. I put in at about 8:30, the water temp at the ramp was 76 degree's, I ran south down to Blue Springs, making a stop in Lake Beresford. I fished every inch of cover and pads from Blue Springs all the way back to the ramp and caught nothing. I fished jerkbaits, plastic gator tail worms in a red shad with a 1/4 weight, crankbaits that ran from 4 ft to 12 ft in depth. I pulled about 1:30 because it looked like a storm was headed up our way. The water temp ranged between 76-78 degrees, the water was tannic but you had about 2 ft of visbility. I wish I ould have posted that I loaded the boat but it just ain't so. I am now at a loss to figure out what these fish are doing, or what stage they are in- prespawn, spawn, post spawn. I will be back out again on Friday, maybe I will get lucky and hit the motherlode. I thought fishing the Potomac river was tough, the St. John's makes it look like a walk in the park!
Fished Lake Marion today, tried several things but shallow inside lines of grass were the ticket. All on speed worms. Also caught a 6-8 lb mud fish (bowfin) that thing was huuuggeee!

I wish I ould have posted that I loaded the boat but it just ain't so. I am now at a loss to figure out what these fish are doing, or what stage they are in- prespawn, spawn, post spawn. I will be back out again on Friday, maybe I will get lucky and hit the motherlode. I thought fishing the Potomac river was tough, the St. John's makes it look like a walk in the park!
You live in Florida, have you ever considered joining the Florida Bragging Rights Club?
We use this thread for posting our catches and BS on the other one. It is to late to join us this month (have to say your "in" by the 6th) but you can always start next month. We would welcome you.
Deadeye I would have to catch some fish first!
Been laid up with my legs but made it out for a couple hours tonight. Solid starter lol. 19.25. Now if I can catch 4 more like that!

Thank you for bring it to my attention. When i get later on I will make the correction.
Out today and got two to cull my 12.5 & 14. I'll post a complete report as well.
16 Inches to cull the 12.5
[attachment outdated - deleted by admin]
16.75 to cull the 14.
That gives me: 15 + 16 + 16.5 + 16.75 + 20.75 = 85
[attachment outdated - deleted by admin]
OK....
Bassindude, congrats on your 1st official catch with us. I documented your catch.
Deadeye, nice culls. I documented your catch. Enjoy your time in 1st place for little while. I will not be hitting the glades for another week and half. ;)
Rick, i made the correction on your 14.25" fish. I input the incorrect number, I apologize. Fortunately you documented your numbers.
To early in the month to even begin to think about 1st place lasting.
Good Luck on your trip to the Glades.

I was going to stay home and get a few things done this weekend - by the looks of you fish catching machines here - I may to sneak away for an hour or two to at least fish a couple ponds. ~shade

You need to plan a trip down here to Okeepoga so you can show me how to catch some of these Florida bass. They've been kicking my butt lately.

Was able to get out for a few hrs this morning and man it was BUSY with boat traffic. Had a great time, 12 bass (One being 14.5) and one beastly Bow! Honestly I love to catch muds, gars and of course bass. No prejudice if it's big. Heres my catch for record.

Took, I documented your catch. That's big mudder right there. Thank goodness for the fish grip you have there.
Nice catch Took! ~gf
Thanks! I know it's crazy but sometimes I go to areas that are "dead" just to throw topwater frogs and catch muds. Have been consumed with big fish from a young age, had my first 8lb+ bass at 10 and monster muds before that. They really are an amazing creature.
My canal is producing. Biggest so far is this 22"

I got out today with Taylor for a couple of hours. I needed help with the boat. I should have put 4 in the boat today but with my busted ribs and "Alice" hooksets I only got one all the way in the boat. I should not have gone cause now I'm hurting but I'm on the board.

Way to fill your limit Rick, now to start culling.
Had: 13.75, 14.5, 14.5, 15.5, 17.25 = 75.5"
Culled out everything except the 17.25 fish.. it was a great day and I photographed 8 fish.. the smallest being 14.5. Caught probably 5 more I assumed were to small once I culled the original 13.75 out.
Caught on ribbit frogs and speed worms.

Triple post?
I see this is still cutting up. ~shade Will have to bring it to the boss attention to let them know.
WEST, fish have been documented. Good work. You have jumped to 2nd place knocking Deadeye to 3rd.
Well finally joe and i have some fish to post, last week we were skunked, but today we did a little better,
We fished from 7:00 to 1:00, mostly cloudy, water stained we got 7 in the boat and lost about 4 others, the 1st 2 we got on a gold flake paddle tail, the others were on a junebug fluke.
1st fish for joe, 20 1/4 inch, image is blurry so if it don't count that's ok
he got 4 total
20 1/4 + 13 1/2 + 11 1/2 + 12 = 57 1/4
I got 3 today
15 + 13 1/2 + 18 = 46 1/2
[attachment outdated - deleted by admin]
here are the others, also a pic of my ruler to help determine length on the blurry 20 inch

That's awesome!!
Mutt what were you throwing? I love the grass banks.
Hey lou, we tried alot of stuff, frogs, spook etc, but topwater didn't work for me today. the first 2 were caught on a gold flake paddle tail next to the weed edge, the others were on a junebug fluke but in a little deeper water, I also saw some feeding frenzy activity/schooling, but was not able to respond fast enough, this was a new lake for us, so it took awhile to find the fish, we may hit it again tomorrow.
Started new job this week and have been traveling non-stop. Morning is looking clear on my schedule so hopefully can get at least three to round out a 5 fish limit
I was able to get out for a few hours by myself today, fished from 7:00 to 11:30 and caught 7 total, tried mr frog at the 1st light and had 3 small hits on it but no hook ups, went to a zoom fluke black with gold flakes, that got all my fish today, most were about 8 to 10 feet deep, nothing real big, but alot of fun. ~gf
I had 46 1/2" with 3 fish
adding 2 fish and culling the 13 1/2"
fish added today 15 1/2, 16 1/2. 14 1/2
total now is 15 + 18 + 15 1/2 + 16 1/2 + 14 1/2 = 79 1/2 ~c~

FishinDaddy and SWEDE both your catches have been documented. FD you jumped up to 5th place and are 1/2" away from a tie with Mutt for 4th.
The second 18". All of the fish in the afternoon came from Lake Lowery on a Bitter vibe in mardigras color.

Thanks FD. All your catches have been documented.
Out today. Got 5 with one big enough to cull the 16.25 for me.
Take away the 16.25 and add this 18.5
That gives me: 16.5 + 16.75 + 17 + 18.5 + 20.5 = 89.25

You just cost yourself .25...cause then I would have had to jump in the water and try to catch my fish again...SOOOOOOO I would like to redact my previous statement and cull my 13.5 for the 15.

Its all good Rick. It wouldn't have mattered any ways. The excel worksheet my wife made for this competition, would have made the correction anyways. It would have calculated your top 5 automatically.

SWEDE I documented your catch. Very nice!! You made a jump to 4th, you are a .25 away from tying 3rd.
I just wanted to give everyone the heads up. More than likely when I post this weeks standings it will either be late tonight or early tomorrow afternoon when I get home. Good luck to all of you out there today.
Nice looking fish Swede ~c~ ~c~
I finally made it to the century club!! This guy helped me get into it.

Went out to the glades today. I was happy and fortunate enough to take our very own FBR member Rick D. on this outing with me. I culled two fish for an 18" and a 18.25" puts my total to 102"!! Crazy!!
