Thanks Larry for posting this information and organizing this event. Opening Weekend at Chautauqua is always an exciting time. I will be there for sure - my Dad and I are fishing this event together. If anyone is planning to fish and you want a little Chautauqua Lake info I would be happy to help.

If you have not signed up for the Chautauqua Musky Cash Tournament to be held on June 19th,time is running out to do so. It is now to late to use the snail mail system,by the time I get your mail and return the tourney info / release form by mail,you may not get it in time. Best to use the PayPal Button on the main Tourney Thread above in the Sticky section,then I will mail the info / release form or email it if next week.
The last date to sign up for the Tourney is June 17th,on the morning of June 18th I will be off to my trailer in Westfield,NY,I will have no internet service.

Thanks, Capt. Larry D. Jones

Last chance to be an Entrant of the Chautauqua Musky Cash Tournament is from 7:00 am till 9:00 am Saturday June 19th at the Mayville Boat Launch.
