Week Long Tournament -- Testing a new tournament app — could use a few willing to test out new tournament app with me and donate $2

I'm moving Cast for a Cause to a platform called WeighBook for the 2027 season, and I'd rather find out what's broken now than in the middle of a real event next April.

2026 WARMUP TOURNAMENT - SIgn up any time.

Friday Sept 25 (Tomorrow) → Sunday Oct 4

$1 membership + $1 entry. Every dollar goes to The Jimmy Fund at Dana-Farber — Kindlewood Cares keeps none of it. The dollar exists so I can test whether the payment side actually works, which a free event wouldn't.

Fish anywhere you want, any day in that window. Boat, kayak, dock, bank — all the same. Five bass, 12" minimum or your state's minimum, artificial only, public water. Photo on a bump board with the tournament code visible, submit from your phone. No ramp, no weigh-in, no driving anywhere.

Two divisions, North and South. Rod sleeves from BardeRodz to the winner of each.

SPECIFICALLY LOOKING FOR: Sign up an spend $2 to test membership and tournament payments. That's the part I can't test by myself.

Fair warning — it's a test. If things go sideways, I'll draw winners at random from everyone who submitted a fish.

What I actually need is for you to fish it normally and tell me what annoyed you. Was paying awkward? Is logging a catch easy? Does the leaderboard make sense?

First Place in club tournament today puts me in really good position for AOY going into the Championship tournament in 2 weeks.

Two upgrades for the online tournaments with a few more catches. What did you catch this weekend?

Sometimes it is worth getting on the water even if it is only for 1.5 hours...

The mornings are getting cool and the water is still warm. Fog from the water in the morning is awesome!

A few pics from last night and this morning. I love the end of summer cool down. The fish start gathering and if you can find them they are hungry.

Thoughts? Sucks for me.
