We (Connecticut Surfcasters Assoc) have had many discussions on this tournament as a kill event and eventually decided as Frank posted to not turn in any fish for the event. Let's face it we all enjoy bringing in that fish and throwing it on the scale but on the other hand we all recognize the current condition of the striped bass population. We are not trying to impose our views on others but we think many feel the same way as we do and we just needed to start the discussion. The following is from our website:
Connecticut Surfcasters Association (CSA) is a non-profit organization established for the promotion, protection, and preservation of the surfcasting tradition, in its many forms along our coasts.
So with that in mind we took the position we did.
We in the club are looking forward to the event and hoping the fishing is good and we raise a lot for MS.
