-< Fist DEC BASS fishing club meeting notice >-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
First lets clear up the confusion. NO, I have no plans to affilate this DEC
fishing club with B.A.S.S... I'm only using their booklets as guidelines for
rules/reg, etc.
Now, Brian Ota(of all people) is willing to set up a meeting during lunch to
discuss more in detail. I support this approach and I am asking Brian to set it
up for October 9th for lunchtime in LKG. Brian find a location,,,
It would be good to meet you folks face to face and share ideas on how to make
this happen or decide to walk away from the idea. That's ok to..
Brian, post the meeting time, place etc heree.
thanks

| 222.5 | minutes from the first meeting | DELNI::OTA | | Mon Oct 19 1992 13:21 | 85 |
| Here are the minutes from the first informal gathering of the Digital
Bass Association (DBA). These are proposals for how the club could
come together. We would like your comments on our proposals. I would
like the comments to come from those interested in joining and not
from those who only want to bust this effort. I think this is a good
start. I would recommend that if your interested in working on some
of the laws and by laws you contact Ken Pappas.
Here is the current proposal for the club
CLUB CHAPTERS/ADMINISTRATION/ENROLLMENT
One club with two chapters; NH Chapter and MA Chapter, we could have
as many as we want.
One President and one Treasurer for the DBA Club and a director and
treasurer for each chapter reporting to the Club President and Treasurer.
These posts would be nominated by the membership and seconded, then
voted on by the club members.
Open enrollment for any DEC (What do you think about Digital Contract
workers/consultants/retired employees) employee, member must be a DEC
Employee.
Any member can be in as many other clubs as they like
$10 annual fee per member
Capital investments like buying a tournament scale will be by
consensus.
CLUB RULES
Lets keep the by laws and rules simple
Rule number 1 Have fun
Rule number 2 Must be a DEC employee
Rule number 3 be disrespectful to the Legend.... just kidding
These rules could be done by having a bunch of us knock around some
ideas and submit it to the body via the notesfile for acceptance.
Looking for volunteers.
TOURNAMENT RULES
Tournaments are totally optional
Tourney proposal is to have set of small trophy's per tournament
1st 2nd 3rd. Each lb. is equal to 1 point
Total number of points at end of year goes will result in Big trophies
for 1st, 2nd, 3rd.
No discussion held on who can enter tournaments. I propose each boat
must have a club member and they can invite who ever they want. Any
DEC employee can enter a tournament if they are interested in the side
pools only however if your not a club member your ending status and
points would not end up on the club roster.
Question over what to do about ice fishing? Should those points be
allowed to the total number? The recommendation is to have two
separate tourney schedules one for soft water and one for hard water.
Any voluntary pool for other awards is on a strictly volunteer basis
and a club member may fish the tournament but elect to not partake in
any voluntary pools or visa versa a non member may fish the tournament
for the voluntary pools but not partake in the point submission. All
side pools will be executed immediately following the tourney and will
not carry over for club purposes.
OTHER CLUB ACTIVITIES
We also talked about voluntarily doing club projects like ramp
cleanups, sponsoring events like children's fishing day at MKO etc. or
perhaps having us sponsor the BP Casting Tournament.
If the club gets a large enough membership, we might want to look at
having a pro come in for lectures, tips. We could hold instructional
meetings on techniques etc.
We discussed club meetings and the proposal is to have them on an as
needed basis and via the tube.

| 222.6 | Update on club | DELNI::OTA | | Tue Nov 10 1992 16:49 | 13 |
| Changes in Ken's work place has required him to drop this club
planning. He asked me if I could pick up the ball for him. I agreed
to doing this up until the membership elects its leaders.
Please send me your name and node if your interested in joining this
club. I am putting together a distribution list to send out to the
general membership. Sending me your name now is not a committment, it
will just get you on the distribution list so you can get all the info
and make your decision.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well I have been sending notes out via the distribution and have gotten
a light response to them. I would like to suggest we hold the
discussions in this note unless someone has any objections. The only
request is to limit the banter, slander and otherwise humorous
anecdotes to a minimum.
I have a couple of topics to discuss:
We originally discussed having one club (DBA) and two chapters MA and
NH. I suggest we have two chapters only combine MA and NH and have a
seperate Australian chapter. This makes sense because we will only
need a president, VP and treasurer of the club.
The only nomination for officer I have recieved so far is from Neal who
nominated himself for King Moron. Rich, you can have that. So anyone
interested in being President, VP or Treasurer? If we don't get
officers no club. What about voting, in here or offline?
Brian
|
| 222.9 | | DELNI::OTA | | Fri Dec 04 1992 11:41 | 6 |
| So far we only have two candidates nominated. I was nominated for
President and Keith "Gitzit" Hauer was nominated for Treasurer. Is
anyone else interested in running for either slot or for the VP slot?
You can nominate either in here or send me mail and I will post it.

Members
I just got off the phone with Dave Ohloung the product manager for
Berkley rods and he has agreed to telecon with us at the next DBA
meeting on July 13 in HLO. Dave is going to try and get Dan Foote
their line chemist and Dr Keith Jones their fish behaviorlist to also
tie in. Dave will speak on rods and rod quality in general but will
not do comparitive analysis such as is a All Star or the Accu Flex a
better rod. If the others come it will include the fish studies
berkley conducts and info on line types. Sounds like a lot for 1/2
hour so when I talk to him again I'll see if he is open to extending
it to an hour.
As you all are aware Berkley is the producer of Berkley Rods, Trilene
Line, Tri Max and the Powerbaites. I believe that this will be a very
informative half hour telecon. They will be open to questions and
an answers too.
It will start at 5:30 in HLO room to be announced.

This is a reminder that the DBA would like to send an open invitiation
to all of you for our club meeting tomorrow at 5:30 in the HLO2-1/B11,
Semicustom Conference room.
The meeting will start at 5:30. We are having guest speakers tie in
by phone from Berkley.
DAve Ohlong was the head of the product marketing group for Berkley
Rods for several years
Dr. Keith Jones is the fish behaviourist and is willing to discuss bass
behaviour in general or discuss the powerbaits.
Barry Day is the head of public relations for the fishing line and is
an ex tournament fisherman.
The format for these gentlemen is an open question period. So think
about what you would like to know about Berkley Rods, PowerBaits or
TriMAX, Trilene, or ultrathin lines. They requested we not ask them to
heads on compare their stuff to specific competitors.
See you there.

Keith Hauer finished third with 8.40 lbs also a great job!
It was a great time for all of us and we look forward to our next

For all of you folks out there worried about joining the DBA and not
being able to fish 5 tournaments, its not necessary to fish all of
them, Keith took third by fishing only 3 and of those only two had fish
to weigh in.
Thanks again to all of you who fished the tournaments, I had a great
time.
Congragulations Wendy, Ronni and Keith!

The DBA is getting ready to have its next meeting in November.
Is anyone interested in having a yard sale for old gear and tackle you
don't use? I have a couple of reels and a rod or two, I would like to
sell or trade. If we get enough interest we could have a good way to
take advantage of the things we no longer use, but still have value.
If DBA members are interested and other non members are interested we
can have an open house to do this. What do you think? We won't
schedule this unless theres enough interest
right now the Date for the next meeting is November the 18th in
Littleton at 5:30 to allow for travel. It is in LKG2-A/A4. Thats in

On behalf of the Digital Bass Association, I want to extend a very big
thanks to Bob "Bassin Bob" Puishys for his presentation to the club
last week. His pitch was pretty comprehensive and helped me get a
better understanding on how to pre fish a lake in prep of a tournament.
I know the members there expressed the same sentiments. I know I
immediately put my order in for those crankbaits too.
Thanks Bob, it was a great presentation.

picked by the DBA membership. I believe we'll have to pay a $5 a boat
ramp fee the day of this tournament. All participants are responsible
for paying there own ramp fee.
This time of year can be pretty good at Manchaug. It has a good
population of Largemouths and some Smallies. Typically most of the
fish caught are Largemouths. So Lunker Smallie could indeed be just a
keeper. Les Bazcko caught a Largemouth well over 5 lbs here at a DEC
tournie a few years back, Gary B. (Harbormaster) also caught one
around 6 lbs at a DEC tourney here as well.
Full DBA rules will apply to this tourney (to be added later). El
presidenta OTA will not be able to make this one so it looks like yours
truley will be running another. Any volunteers to help out ??? So
lets start signing up !!!!! 20 points per team, 10 points per team
lunker pool (dual lunker, big LM, big SM)

To get to Manchuag from Worcester area: Take Rt 395 to exit 4E that is
"Sutton Ave Sutton". Drive for a few miles and you'll pass the Singletary
Rod + Gun club on your left. A little further down is Span's country store
and a white church. Take the second right after the church called Manchuag
Rd. There are a lot of campground signs marking the corner. You finally
see the lake after about 1 mile. Keep going around the lake, you will
no longer see it again. Once you pass the YMCA camp bear right at the
fork going down the hill. The ramp will be on your right after you
level out at the bottom of the hill. The entrance to the ramp comes up
very quickly after you level out. If you come to the dam and see the lake
again, you just went by the ramp. Turn around and come back.
If you take 146 out of Worcester it is a lot faster if you get off
the Central Trpk exit which is right at Pleasent Valley golf course.
This is also called sutton ave but the highway sign calls it central
Tnpk. Go Right at the end of ramp. You will come to a 4 corners
with the Blue Jay (pub) on your left. Go straight about 1 mile
a park or some kind of field is on your left then you start to go
up a hill, take the second left after park it's the one with all the signs
for the campgrounds. Then follow directions from Manchuag Rd.
If you know how to find lake singletary, just continue past the ramp on
singletary road all the way around sing. until the road comes to an end.
about 10 miles. Take a left then the first right is manchaug road.

The lake has all kinds of ROCKS like singltary so use caution near
shore (don't go buzzing between Island and shore) after you launch
you are in a cove Go to your right to head out into the Big lake.
About 1000 yards or so Almost out of the cove is an old dam under
the water. Right in the middle is an opening IT IS ONLY MARKED
RIGHT NOW WITH TWO SODA BOTTLES at this time. WATCH OUT GO SLOW.
After the dam you can open it up. Just to the rt and left of the
dam there are lots of rocks so go straight.

| 222.37 | DBA planning for the fall. | DELNI::OTA | | Fri Oct 07 1994 17:36 | 35 |
| Well now that the season drew to a close with those lucky members
fishing todays tourni, its time to look towards the winter.
I contacted Rich Hartley the Commonwealths fish biologist. He is
planning out and implementing the states fish conservation programs for
the next several years. Right now they are collecting data on 50-60
lakes, taking measurements, creel samples etc. From this database they
will begin implementing various fish managment programs like slot
fishing etc to try and increase yeilds. He asked if we could give him
our tournament records which they add in as creel samples. He wanted
to know if we can give him next years schedules so they can come and do
live sampling. I told him I would talk it over with the membership and
get back to him. He explained they have created an 800 number line
that if you call and tell them your looking for Bass say in Worcester,
they will tell you what lakes have consistently been producing trophy
bass. These are the bass that are submitted to the states trophy
program listed in your license extract. He also told me that they have
a coordinator that handles volunteer work, like the fishing teaching
program that uses volunteers to teach such people as inner city kids
how to fish. He also said during the hard water period, he would be
happy to come and give us a talk on what Mass is doing. Is this
something we would like to do. I also would want this type of meeting
open to the entire company. In any event what do you folks think?
Oats
PS.
We talked about Whitehall, he told me they have had very low samples
there and that he asked how our tourniments have done. He was not the
least surprised at the low weigh-in. This lake would be one that the
state would implement a restrictive program in hopes to revive the
fishery.

| 222.39 | You don't need a boat to have fun here | DELNI::OTA | | Tue Oct 11 1994 17:15 | 7 |
| For those of you out there who are afraid to join the club or fish
these tourniments because you don't have a boat, I want to point out
that Bartender and the Kiv thats the 3rd and 4th place holders each
found rides to each tourniment. So you don't need a boat to fish here
and place.

| 222.40 | Is this the end of the club? | DELNI::OTA | | Wed Oct 26 1994 17:57 | 22 |
| I have decided to step down as the DBA President. I sent out a request
for someone to fill in for me and was not able to find a replacement.
I am going to order the trophies and schedule the final club meeting.
If someone does not come forward to take over the club, then we will
have to disband the club.
So lets look at setting up a club meeting for November 25 at
5:30 in LKG. The agenda is as follows:
Awards for the tourniment trail
Vote to continue the club or disband
If we disband what to do with the remaining club funds
and scale.
I recommend we sell the scale and donate the funds to a
charity

| On friday we met and the decision was to continue the club. As such
the club scale and funds remain intact. Neil Sullivan has agreed to
become the club President and Joe Lesica the VP.
As I exit the role of President, I have to admit it was a challenging
slot and to be honest I enjoyed doing it. So I wish the two of them
good luck.
So Neil and Joe will be setting up the meeting schedules etc. and will
publish them soon.

| 222.43 | Last official DBA tourniment | DELNI::OTA | | Fri Mar 03 1995 17:51 | 38 |
| Well all you hawg lovers out there, This is the last official DBA
tourniment you can ever come to.
The Keith "Gitzit" Hauer one fish tourniment will be held on April 29,
1995. As many of you remember the old Gitz passed away last year and
its time we remember him with a tourni in his honor!
I am giving you a choice this year of a couple of things. First the
site, shall it be Singletary or Webster lake? To keep the decision
easy, I'll go with the majority of the votes by March 15.
Now the second choice, as I said we are offically closing off the DBA
club. We have some limited funds left. I want to have printed up 30
Tee shirts with this tourni day and title as mementos for all you who
are going to sign up. So the first 30 in get a shirt. Any extras well
I'll figuire out what to do with them later. Next we collect the usual
points 20 per boat. Since its a one fish there is no hawg pool. I
think we should have enough for 5 payouts based on size. Now heres
your second choice. I can use whatever funds are left to buy burgers,
dogs or whatever and we have a cookeout afterwards, or the winner
chooses the charity of his/her choice and we donate whatevers left of
the DBA club funds in Keiths name. Thats your second choice.
So lets get rolling, kick some life into this dead file and lets roll
with our first tourniment of the year.
Remember choices are Singletary or Webster lake
Use last of club funds for cookout or donate to a charity.
This tourniment is open to anyone past or present, so if you guys can
get ahold of folks gone by do it.
Don't sign up for this tourniment in this note, either sign up in the
Bass notesfile or send me mail off line

| Damn like always there are problems in getting tournies going. It
appears the MHH club (where most of the DECCIEs belong) already has a
tournie on April 29. That means they can't make the 30, since most of
these folks are friends of Keiths it would make sense to move the
tournie. I hate moving into a week earlier cause we know what weather
is like in april, why not move it back to May 6. If I move this, I
hope the MHH folks come.
