| Ok, if folks agree let's use this thread to coordinate the matches. I'll post a list of the pools below and suggest that we still need the following info posted for each team...
1) Identify the team's main contact person.
2) List the dates for fishing.
Seems that only half the teams have provided dates and that is a problem. Date up.
In the past I found it easiest to use the phone to coordinate matches, so I plan to PM my phone number to all other teams in my pool to facilitate scheduling.
Ok, how does that sound and what are your suggestions for improvement?
*******************************************************
Pool 1
AndyC
Stella Blues
Team Violent Strike
Team Rod Rash
Pool 2
Team Red Barchetta
Team Pace T Melon
Ski Patrol
Team Mouskerbousker
Pool 3
White Mambas
muskie maniacs 2007 Champs
"Midwest Muskie Hunters"
Whistlepeckers
Again, the first two steps are to
1) Identify each team's main contact person.
2) List the dates for fishing.
Suggestions welcome. Thanks!

Location: Home of the 2016 World Series Champion Cubs | Red Barchetta's a scratch for today. Appliance installation crapped over my plans to fish. "We'll be there between 8-11am......... Sorry we're running late. Going to be between 3-5. We hope it's not too much an inconvenience." looks like one fish and you guys take it. Don't recall if there's any provision for a make up. I can get out tomorrow if so.

Location: Clintonville, WI | Fishing dates update from Pace T Melon......
We can fish matches during the July 5-8 period (6th and 7th would be the easiest for us but the other days work too).
*** If any of Pool 2 can fish during July 5-8, please try respond here before Sunday July 3. We'll have to drive 20 minutes to get cell service or WiFi signal and need to know what dates we have matches so we aren't driving randomly each day to check for matches and items.
We can also fish matches August 1-7 and August 20-21.
Other random dates before September could also work, so let us know when you want a piece of us

Big storms rollin thu here and power was off most of the day. If we can't get an item I plan to be wearing a St. Louis Cards Batting helmet, not a hat, a helmet, if I am fortunate and boat a fish.
Thanks.

But, he is correct in that Pace T Melon is looking for Pool 2 matches August 1-7 or August 20-21.
We had a double blank against Red Barchetta on July 5, so hopefully we can get some action versus Ski Patrol or Mousker.

My 9 fish were 30,34,34,34,34.5,34.5,34.5,35.5,and37. The second 3 fish day was a double match,so they get counted twice.

Location: Pittsburgh, pa | Playoff Rounds:
On September 16, the winner of each pool will advance to the playoff rounds. From this point forward all matches are head-to-head, with the winner advancing to the next round. The bracket pairings for matches will be determined by seeding the teams according to total fish points scored in pool play rounds. The number of teams involved will determine dates for the playoff rounds.
During the playoff rounds, rematches will be allowed until one team wins. If neither team is able to win the match before the end of the time allowed, total points from all pool play matches will determine the winner.
