Since many of you did not make the meeting we had a couple of months ago.
There is no longer a president. We have a board of directors to vote on changes we make to DABL. Next year will be Roger, Al, and myself.
I'm reposting the tentative schedule for 2008:

More nights, long drives, and a board of bosses.. So what is the payout for the overall? Trophies, plaques. etc.? Are you going to do a complete payback over the year? What about the remaining moneys? Are you buying more scales? The containers were broke and needed to be replaced. How about more bags?
I thought there would be more split nights? And shuffling teams based on the positions in each group?
If we are only having 15 teams, then what about the other 14 teams we had this year? Just curious. I liked fishing against everyone. No big deal, just curious what the new format is and the setup.
Please explain a little more. Thanks..
Just to let you all know it doesnt seem that we have much intrest so far in the league,I have had 2 phone calls in the last week asking questions and no new post on the board!
I think we could have enough teams for two groups and then shuffle every other week. That would be interesting.
Staying 15 boats or under is a good idea, I am with that, to avoid DNR permits, they like that too. But I like to allow people that want to fish with us, the opportunity to do it.
I like the Big Bass Pot nightly. Good idea. End of year party, is fine.
Some of the tubs were broken and we kept them in Twitch's truck. But we should replace them. Very low cost of course, just something to keep in mind. Along with some spare batteries for the scales.
Rog, no wacky stuff here. But it's fun to get you guys (bossess) going. ;) Just kidding Rog... Remember, I get that a lot too. Just having fun with ya. The main reason to start it out, was to get the information out here for everyone. I like the extra nights, with throws, not sure if fishing yet. Playing that by ear.
Gotta run.
