I spoke with ray (tournament director) on the phone for about an hour a few days ago. Biggest cat was 11.5 lbs.

What was the biggest fish caught?? I was expecting weights around an eight pound average. Didn't realize he had a six poles or setlines rule. Did you get a chance to talk to Ray??

I can't really say much about this tourney. We fished unfamiliar water with way different rules than what I'm used to. (24 hour tourney, setlines aloud, 6 lines per person aloud with up to six hooks per line).....Kinda sounds like trot lining. Anyways, this tourney was also scored a little different than the MTCats circuit. The largest single fish was payed out to tenth place and as for the four fish limit totals they only payed out top three. We ended up with 5th place catching...

Fox and I will be fishing this tourney together. We had a conversation at dinner tonight and talked about a game plan on how we r going to compete in an unfamiliar body of water. I hope we see some other Montana Cats members attend this event. Tight lines!!!!

It looks like 1st though 1oth is based on your largest single fish caught and an additional pot for four fish limit. So, if I'm reading this right you could win the biggest four fish limit and the biggest single catfish "registering" the same four fish for both? Does anyone else read it this way?

I've been in contact with Ray, the guy running the Powder Tourney...although it's been awhile since I've talked to him...but I don't think he had finalized any of that information. I gave him some suggestions and forwarded him information on our tourneys to see if he wanted to follow similar formats. So some of that information may change. Seems like a great guy...I think he'll put on a good time.
