Looking for a pro to sign up all 4 FLWs

[McLovin]

They tell me I should find a pro to sign up with tomorrow. So if there is a pro that would let me sign up with them it would be Greatly apprieciated. If you can help heres my # 209-740-3228 Thankyou Jesse Ochoa

[McLovin]

Ok so I still need a pro to drop my name when they sighn up, If theres anyone who does not have a co . It would be greatly apprieciated. I have my own Rv & boat to pre fish so Iam not looking for any thing other than someone to help me garranty my entry. This is a big deal for me, as I fish from a wheelchaire. I was reluctent to do this last year, but after doing several pro ams, I am confadent in my abilities and ready to do all four of these. Thanks Jesse Ochoa

If you put up your deposits right now you will get in Jesse. I am sure they would like you to get them a boater commitment. It is doing their job for them. Most Western guys do not sign up for all 4. They sign up for one at a time. The few team guys are not allowed to sign up with a partner as their entries are paid by FLW. Those guys will be your guarantee in. If not them you are first on the waiting list for the other entries. Good luck.

Jesse,Good luck my friend.I know you will do well!!!

You DO NOT need a pro IF you place deposits for ALL 4 events. People that sign up for ALL 4 events have priority entry.

When in doubt call FLW and speak to the source.

[Robert F]

Wrong Wricky but you could probably help him and you if you call him in.

Today is final day of priority for Pros and Co's signing up for all four. It is a higher priority than next week's final priority for singles signing up for all four. Still doesn't change the fact that this is FLW Western not BASS Centrals. They will not fill up this week or next. Priority only gets you in over a single tournament entry when the field is full. Still does not get you confirmation.

FLW Series Entry Dates:
December 15, 2009 – Final day for priority angler registration.December 15, 2009 – Ranger boat owners.December 16, 2009 – Champion and Stratos owners and TBF members.

December 17, 2009 – General public.
December 17, 2009 – Final day of priority registration for pros and co-anglers entering all four tournaments in a division with a counterpart.
December 21, 2009 – Final day of priority registration for pros and co-anglers entering all four tournaments in a division. Anglers entering all four events in a division by this date will be given priority over anglers who enter fewer than four events.

[Ricky-S]

I didn't know it was about wrong and right?

My point is still valid which IS that someone that enters ALL four events will have priority entry into the event.

Hence, a co angler or pro that places deposits into all four will placed higher on the entry list. Furhtermore, I have NEVER seen a co angler or pro that places deposits for all four in the beginning of the season not get into an event.

Now tell me where I am "wrong"?

[McLovin]

Take it easy guys . Just looking for someone to sign up with, not start a p.....ssing match over who's right or wrong. But thanks for the info. I did put my deposite for all four events, so hopefully I will get in.

[Robert F]

People that sign up with a partner for all 4 have priority over people that sign up by themselves for all 4. FLW TOLD HIM that he needs to find a Pro to get his priority higher.
As YOU AND I said, it is not necessary as the tournaments will not fill in the next two weeks. If this was a BASS open he would already be done. They have over 300 guys on the waiting list for the Central Opens.

does that seem possible that there would be a waiting list that large for the central opens when they only filled one tournament last year. I could assume bassmaster has only a first come first serve entry, but if that many people were waiting this year... where did they come from or is it just for the first tournament?

[Steve Reed]

Robert F. is right, yes seriously , they have such a waiting list that I got offered a free tournament to sign up with a pro. I am seriously considering it, but it would mean I'd be fishing completely full time next year and I would need to cash a few checks to stay on the tour. We will see.

But yeah, I heard 180 on the list... not sure about 300

My buddy and I called last week. I think the number was 342? They may fall off quick but those Texas boys are all over BASS. I tried to get FLW to overlap some of the West stuff that way and keep the 4K. They said the Texas guys would not come to California.

[clayton meyer]

did you ask if by signing up for all the tournaments if they would let you in?

[clayton meyer]

I called... if you were a federation, insider or life member you get to sign up first...

they due have a waiting list in all tournaments and did have one in all tournaments last year also... people just didn't show up.

[McLovin]

I called this morning And she basicly told me there was know way to find out if I was on a waiting list and they would be sending out confermations next weak. So I will just have to wait till then.
