MuskieFirst Match Fishing - The Object Prank
regarding the "Object" selection by the decision-makers....
I was in a few MuskieFirst Matchs over the years. Under those rules, on the evening before the match, each team receives an e-mail telling us what specific household object we had to bring for the pictures. Since I started the matches at midnight, just a couple hours after being informed of the object, and I tried to do at least 18 of the 24 hours on the water, and there was never time to go out and purchase whatever object is specified by the moderator. Oh,and two hands holding the fish means you have to hold the object in your mouth for the picture, right? To wrap this up, with one exception, there was never a problem with the item selected by the M1 Match Fishing moderator. The exception? Ever try to hold a well-used TOILET PLUNGER in your mouth while taking your own picture holding a fish? I have. I don't recommend it.
