charlie johnson Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 We have shifted the venue for this year’s SE OT to Barrier Island Marine’s location in Charleston, SC, www.barrierislandmarine.com. The dates (May 16-17), great food, warm Southern hospitality, super redfishing and entry fees will all stay the same. We are just going to ramp it up a notch and have it all happen in one of the top destination cities in America. What’s not to like about that? For complete details, including lodging recommendations, entry forms, a list of FAQs, tournament rules and an events schedule, go to http://mbcboats.com/owners-tourn-reg.html.

wheres the fish Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 Are the tides as bad as they are in Burford S.C. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie johnson Posted April 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 In terms of strength of current and range from low to high, the tides in Charleston and Beaufort are similar; but you wouldn't have those beautiful marshes without all that water flow.

smilemaker Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 The options for fishing Charleston are so numerous that we can get spread out from Edisto up to Bulls Bay. Will there be an area of emphasis such as the harbor and jetties or will everyone just spread out. Barrier Island is toward the south so where are they recommending most people go. James Island Yacht club is centrally located but is a private club. Wapoo Cut landing can be a zoo and going to Mount Pleasant is a drive from Barrier Island. A lot of choices is not a bad thing but can take a lot of the togetherness out of the tournament. I will be there just have to get regestered. What is the count so far.

lrobalo Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Saturday is always a zoo at wapoo cut..so is anywhere going towards Folly, and anywhere north of the harbor won't be pretty either. I will fish out of North Edisto, Wadmalaw area..less crowded, plus I live West Ashley... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smilemaker Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Finally registered!!! How are the numbers looking? Hope to hear from others on their plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie johnson Posted April 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 So far we only have 5 boats officially registered, but Barrier Island Marine has talked to a bunch of folks who plan on coming and we know of some others. In order to get the shirts ordered in time, we need to have everyone registered by 5/1. Let's go folks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ableminded Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 I'm signed up and ready to fish!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smilemaker Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Glad to have you aboard for the tournament. Seeing how it is a funament type of a tournament any tips and advice you would care to share will be appreciated by all. I trust Haddrells will be fully stocked with bait and other secrets to help make the tournament fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie johnson Posted April 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I'll let Mike and the Charleston natives talk about the fishing. The great thing about these events is that the are more about camaraderie , good food and drink and the great raffle items than the catching. We are going to be giving away Costa sungl***, fishing tackle, boat accessories, MBC apparel and more. I've never heard an entrant feel like that they got less than they put in. Talk it up to your friends and let's get a bunch of boats by the Thursday night deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTB11 Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 I'm all signed up!! Had a blast last year and looking forward to this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheres the fish Posted April 29, 2014 Report Share Posted April 29, 2014 Sorry to say we will be unable to attend. But for the MBC owners in that area make it a point to attend you will not be sorry. We have attened all the OT's since 1992 through tropical depressions, gale winds, rain and lighting and had a great time at all them even if we haven't caught a bone fish yet. Once you been to one it will not be your last one. MBC does it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ableminded Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 smilemaker, Haddrell's will definitely be stocked up with bait and I would be happy to do a one time discount for all anglers fishing this tournament on that Friday before the tournament if that would help? Please let me know and I will get it set up at both stores! As far as anyone needing or wanting help/info I would be more than happy to help. Either approach me Friday night or call my cell any time 843.475.7696 Good luck everyone, Capt Mike Able Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie johnson Posted May 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Right now, we have 16 boats. (Unfortunately, we had two cancellations due to extenuating circumstances.) I know of at least 2 more that will likely sign up. Out of deference to the Southern tradition of taking things slowly, we are going to extend the deadline to welcome late comers. Those of you who helped us with our planning by signing up by the initial deadline will be awarded with an extra raffle ticket. That ticket could be the winner of a new pair of Costas, an Engel Cooler, a Yamaha prop of choice, a 100 hour service at Barrier Island Marine, a free day with a local guide, a Gideon WASP Camera (think GoPro, but better) and a bunch of other great raffle stuff. Come on C -town! Let's get this thing well over 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
