Joel,

A new location, that is cool, I always wanted to fish the lock areas and now I have a reason too!!!
September was always the Kinzua outing with very little turnout. We tried to have it when the stocking was so the guys could do both while they were here, this year it didn't get stocked then the outing kind of got dropped too. It's such a beautiful area to fish compared to most all the other lakes, I wish we could get it going again. This year sure didn't help.

Sorry, got sidetracked there.............nice job with a new location for something different!!!

Thanks,

Mike,

The website for Three Rivers Muskies Inc is not kept up to date very well. The meetings are always the second Monday of every month (there is one tonight) at the Northside Sportsman's Club in Cranberry/Warrendale. I think the board meetings start at 6:30 and the general meetings start at 7:30.

Thanks Frank, i was approached last summer about getting a tournament together on the river since theres a fair amount of guys that fish the river and since i'm very local to Lower Allegheny. Were hoping we can drum up some new members and spread the word about the club a little at the same time. The timeframe was fairly limited with the other tournaments and September was the only feasible month to do it, mainly because recreational boating traffic would be fairly heavy the other months that were available. Hopefully it will have a fair turnout and we can continue it in the future.

I've never even been in that area before, I take it that you are using 3 pools to give more area to fish? Is that a big area?
Your thoughts on maybe gaining some members and spreading the word is a good idea.

[allegheny river kid]

Yeah its mainly to open more room for people. The three pools consist of roughly 20 miles of river and 3000+ acres of water. Also if people want to jump around from pool to pool they have the option throughout the day.

The vote was taken at the feburary muskies inc. meeting on the 3 rods, the vote was unanimous for the use of 3 rods during our tournaments. Also we decided on dropping the lake arthur tourney from a 2 day event to a 1 day event. We will see how this works this year, and may switch back to a 2 day next year if it causes too many problems.

[toothyfishman]

I like the 1 day Authur tourney idea, if I don't have anything else going on I'll make that one for sure. For me to travel that far, get a room, and pay for the tourney I normally skip it. I konw it's kind of home lake for most the guys in the club.

I'm surprised because of the boundary water thing, but we can use 3 rods at Pymatuning this year also.
