Will this be the biggest tourney yet?!

I was recently in touch with Jason, new to the headhunt tourney.  He and his crew are some new local blood who seem to represent what this tourney is all about: good times, good fishing, great competition, and some great fun with, did I say, fishing tourney competition?

Jason and his crew run a website and podcast at capecodsportbags.com.  Check it out.   I like the site’s piece on why world cup soccer flopping could be the reason that the game of soccer may never fully catch on in the US. I am a soccer fan (and even former player of some sort) but fully believe, as they do, that flopping plays way too much a part of the game.

I am fully disgusted with the flopping aspect of soccer and at the World Cup.  It ruined the game for me, and I feel that needs to be said in the open as much as possible so some entity may be able to change it for the better of the sport. 

I may need to join in with Jason and his crew more on this subject but now is not the time to talk soccer. 

Now is the time to talk fishing competition and this Saturday’s Harwich Headhunt.  The t-shirts are better than ever, the competition is fiercer than ever, and lips are sealed more than ever. 

I do think that people are quieter this year because they are more serious about winning, but also because they have no clue how to attack the catch this Saturday.  They may have some ideas -- our team does -- but a clue???  Our team is all over the chart with our approach but we are looking forward to the challenge of another year of striped bass tournament fishing.  We created this event for this type of competition which is why we enjoy this type of challenge. 

We’re team “JACKAL” – we’re ready.  Bring it on.

Best of luck out there but not really especially to Capt Seamus and his Jailbreak crew of TJ, Petey, and Jeremy, and a few new members from Boston.  Quote from their crew earlier tonight “the only thing we are bringing on Seamus's boat are beers, smokes and bananas”.  True story, but they actually did bring bananas on the boat last year, and pulled them out once they got onto the rips and asked Seamus if he wanted one.  They had no idea about the bad luck (and still don’t really) but the pics of Seamus’ face after were priceless. 

We also always wish the worst for the “old school” multi champion Mike O’Brien and crew and we are once again against the bay boats no matter what.

Let’s get ready to rumble.

True Story, we did bring bananas on the boat, shortly after we tossed them to sea we scored last year's winning fish.
Team Powe/Champs don’t need to talk smack because we the champs and team jackal are the chumps.

I'm really looking forward to this weekend...it is always a great time and even better when we hoist the trophy in victory again this year.

The only banana's that need to be brought on board are the one's between your legs. Good for me and the crew I'm goin with that we have the Bags to go along with it! Secondly flopping is ok as long as it's the trophy striper that we catch! C'mon! Thanks for the headhunt tourney letting the Cape Cod Sport Bags on board!

Just got back from Dunkin' Donuts where I got a chocolate cruller and 2 munchkins.

That is all.

Love have the sports bags on board, based on the trash talking i've seen on your site - you guys are are what we're looking for. Hopefully we'll see you guys at the Hot Stove friday night for some beers and smack talk before the big day - maybe even some side bets?

Harry, are you ok? Those schoolies you and your brother keep posting to FB getting to your heads?

BC football rules.

Thanks Ryan. We are excited for the tourney. Also thanks for checking the website. We love to trash talk! Ill try to get the boys to the Hot Stove so we can start the trash talking. Our facilitor Dano or the Captain as we call him would love to talk some Billy Curley and BC with you. If we bring in Mr. Whitey would that count? It might no a striper but isn't bigger always better?

I love it, and would be great to talk Billy Curley and hopefully Paul Grant as well. I am open to any and all side bets as well, and seeing I've caught pretty much no bass when fishing for them this year, and only caught them (a 25 lber at least) when trying for tuna (which I also haven't caught), I would say that I'm a good investment opportunity.

Team Powe sucks.

I'm sure he would love to talk about that but I wanna talk fish. Big fish. I'm at the lighthouse in Chatham surveying where my trophy fish will be caught. Channel 7 is here too. I thought they were here to do a piece on the cape cod sport bags but instead there here for Mr.Whitey. Seems there's been another sighting and the beach is off limits to swimming. Really though if they took a New York tourist would it be so bad? Haha
