This fall the Edge ran perhaps the only way I can see one proceed right now in that there was no emphasis on the size of the fish entered to win prizes. While the sentiment is great and I participated, I know a lot of guys who found it hard to find the motivation to participate in light of the lottery format.

^^^^ This.
Maybe next fall we can do a Beach Cookout Tourney or something. It might be nice to have a Habs/ PJJ / Crafty / Don M and all the others that have left us some-type-remembrence . Not a knockdown kill Tourney but get together, have some fun, go fishing after.
