GUESS THE WINNING WEIGHT 2016 BASSMASTER CLASSIC CONTEST

[jocko]

It's that time of year again!  Time to guess the winning weight of the BASSMASTER CLASSIC and win some baits!  This is the OFFICIAL THREAD.  Please ONLY post your guess in this thread. No chatter or smack talk, just entries.  Make your entry post like this:

your name (UB Handle)
lbs / oz
baits your are betting.

Here's how the contest works:

You make your guess of what the winning weight will be in LBS / OZ for this year's BASSMASTER CLASSIC and you wager a bait as an entry fee.  It doesn't have to be anything expensive - just a bait or two. By playing, you agree to mail the bait directly to the winner, who will post his address upon being declared the winner.  The more people who play - the bigger the winnings are! The lucky winner will receive baits in his mailbox, which are mailed to him by those who played but didn't win. 

Don't go crazy expensive on the baits.  I plan to wager a couple bags of soft plastics or some jigs as an example. 

The closest weight to the winning weight without going over is the winner.    The winner will post his address and the non-winners will send the baits they promised.   It's that easy. 

The first person to post the weight - owns it.  So scan the previous posts before you make your guess.  You may NOT choose a weight that has already been picked.  You may not modify your guess once you post it - so think about it first.  A duplicate guess will be deleted and you will be asked to make another guess if you failed to notice someone else already guessed that weight.   I will summarize the guesses periodically.  Edited weights will be scrutinized and disqualified.  I'm watching and will let someone know if his or her weight has already been taken!  ALSO - (1) One entry per person.  DO NOT create multiple UB user names to make additional entries.  This is a fun game for all to play honestly and fairly.

The contest closes 4 am EST March 4, 2016 (just prior to the day one launch).  The contest will be decided when they crown the Classic Champ on March 6, 2016.   There will be NO accommodations or adjustments for fog delays or full days cancelled by weather, high water, etc. Or if the venue gets changed to a different body of water.   The winning weight is the winning weight, as published by B.A.S.S.  If it goes to a sudden death fish off and the winner is declared by catching the first fish, the winning weight is the weight posted on bassmaster.com for the final results for everyone to view.

Some people guess right away to get their best guess locked in.  Others wait to see what the practice weights or estimates are or game day weather, though you run the risk of someone else posting and taking the same weight you were going to guess.  So don't wait too long to enter.  This is a 3 day 5 fish per day contest.  You are choosing the combined weight of 15 Grand Lake Bass.  This is very important.   Choose wisely!  If you research previous tournaments,  consider those weights may be from a 4 day tournament and consider time of year.  No changes will be permitted for failing to recognize the CLASSIC is a 3 day tournament.

So again, this thread is the Official Contest Thread where you should post your guess.  ONLY POST CONTEST ENTRIES to this thread. 

Again - Post like this to enter:

your name (UB Handle)
lbs / oz
baits your are betting.

OK - Let the contest begin! 

Good Luck to all!
