From JohnR in another thread:

Chris - no real limit on size. My impression I got talking to some OTW folks was that we were midsized in number of participants with one club having twice as many entered as S-B.

Why are you such a s-b striper cup team hater? :confused: Maybe I'm wrong but in another thread you were saying why bother participate, isn't just fishing enough or something like that? Now your questioning team size and whether we should qualify as a club? If you're not interested in particapating why do you care how many people are on our team or whether or not we are a club? Just seems like your trying to bring a ton of negativity to something that you don't participate in or supposedly care about.

Luds,

Don't hate the sb team just not a fan of the way the striper cup is structured and run.
I participated in it for a couple years and didn't like the way was set up, eventually stopped. I have a ton of specific reasons why but instead of airing them all here and depressing everyone and starting a flame war, I will ignore this thread and let you guys enjoy the event. (if you want me to get into it I will) It's just not for me, that's all.

This "club" is the same as most who participate in the Cup.My "club" is a bunch of friends and friends of friends.After RISAA there aren't many true clubs who enter,maybe Jersey shore.Linesider bass and brew won this thing with about 8 or 10 guys on their "club".I raised the same question years ago but let's face it;s-b.com is the best thing OTW could hope for thus far to promote the tournament.Not to mention they are mostly shore guys which OTW loves.They also don't have many comm's to keep things pure.

I,for one would like to hear your gripes with the format.It has a low impact for the most part.They have tweaked it so the shore division doesn't have too much of an advantage anymore.They have expanded the area of weigh stations.All good changes I think.With the fishing out at the Vineyard I'm shocked their teams have never put together a legitimate challenge.If OTW could ever dedicate enough staff to update standings more frequently instead of the intern running around with the proverbial head cut off this would really fly.

Could be, but it all depends on what's available on any given year.

As it has happened once in my lifetime, the real big fish suddenly vanish from our catches, either dead from old age or other causes.

Lets hope you're right though as 530# sounds like a good estimate and it would require a good distribution of big fish for this to happen.

Which club are you referring to? To me its a fun tournament and I could care less if a club has 5 or 500. The club portion of the striper cup is simply for bragging rights only, no $$ involved.

Its the big $$ prizes some people will most certainly be cheating at in order to win. When you consider its a coastwide tournament and there's countless weigh stations with obvious disparities between all of them, it just opens the doors for bad behavior.

Look at the Vineyard Derby for example...there's what, 2 weigh stations and any leading fish is dissected and checked for alterations before going on the leader board. Still, people cheat and get busted at the MV Derby even though they're under a microscope....how do you think the striper cup will fare with regard to quality control? The possibilities for abuse are endless.

If I remember correctly, it was one of the smaller clubs (15-20 guys) of "professional" fishermen who had a team member busted for poaching. So much for club size.

Just in case Sea Dangles thinks I'm changing my mind, I'd like to remind him I'm still in and look forward to the tournament...

People have been complaining about advantages and disadvantages since the striper cup started and they have been changing the rules almost every year to accomidate some of that. The way I look at it, Play by their rules... If your serious about winning the cup create a well balanced team with guys that fish hard, love fishing, and want to win! You have to diversify Shore, Boat, Commercial, Recreational. Also cover as much of the striper coast because you never know where good bodies of big fish will show.... Numbers do help... Not many teams want to win as bad as Team Striper, they did alot of the above and that's what it takes to win... Luck takes you only so far... Best of luck to all!

Dad 818,

Awesome job keeping this list and major thanks for noting whom is boat, shore or both.

Couple questions:

1. If I were to take other members of the team out on my boat to go trophy hunting it would have to be another boat angler or a "both" person, yes?

2. Does anyone know how we keep a tally of fish that have been caught so I don't weigh in a 42# fish and then realize that it was all for nothing because our top ten were all bigger? I just don't want to kill any fish I don't have to. Early in the season do we weigh in high 30# ers?

Thanks.

Dad 818
04-08-2010, 08:12 AM
Sea Flat, thanks for the compliment.

1-Yes, the people you bring out would have to register as either "Boat or Both"

2-I haven't done the cup before, but I believe that OTW keeps a standings sheet available on their web site.

hey Sea Flat,

the Boss, JohnR, usually has us keep nothing under 35# shore, 40# boat. that's at the beginning of the Cup. as the tournament progresses those numbers will increase.

as for the updating of the Leader Board, that is an area where i hope that OTW will improve. we usually have a sticky or some one who keeps a running account here, based on OTW's numbers. we will also use the "grapevine" to keep us from keeping big fish, unecessarily :bl: :bl: :bl:

Mike P
04-08-2010, 01:34 PM
Some people might want to weigh in a fish for a shot at a weekly prize, which used to be about $400 worth of tackle/gift cards.

Also, May and September are "short" months and a 30-ish fish might sneak in for the monthly, which puts you on the stage with a chance at the grand prize. Especially in September for the shore guy.

It's a matter of personal choice.

Just remember that you can only weigh in one fish a week, and the week runs Sunday to Saturday, if I remember correctly.

Intrepid, we are recruiting among members of S-B and a few friends of members of S-B. A lot of people that don't get to fish 8 days a week like some and the large majority - like myself - that may or may not break the magic number necessary to make the top 10. Hell, I only posted a fish once that lasted the final 10.We are mostly shore - which some consider a disadvantage - shore ratio or not. We have a few ringers (by far not me :rotf2:) but we are also going against teams full with ringers and teams with far larger.

What is a "fair" amount of people for us to have? And why?

Yep, Dad is keeping a good list...

1) They would need to be in the tourney and registered both or both. A sure only could not weigh in a fish.

2) We'll manage a list and forum for access keeping the details up to date on what not to keep. MikeP is on the money with regards to weekly / monthly prizes and personal choice. I don't think I will weigh anything in that doesn't have a shot at the top 10 unless it is a fish I can't revive - but that is me.

I totally agree. I am hoping that someday the weigh stations and OTW can get this done online to make it quicker and up to date on a daily basis, or at least close to it.

The starting off point sounds good, thanks for the info.

MikeP is on the money with regards to weekly / monthly prizes and personal choice. I don't think I will weigh anything in that doesn't have a shot at the top 10 unless it is a fish I can't revive - but that is me.

Agreed, only going to weigh in a fish unless it is going to help the team. Realistically, you would really only have a shot at a weekly prize in this case anyway except for the early weeks of the tourney where 20# fish have been known to take a weekly.

does it cost more to register for both?


It costs $10 more to register as both I believe.
