I hear from a reliable source we are talking $2500 entry fees and other professional requirements to enter. This could be what ASA was supposed to be until Jack Holmes abandoned the tournament and ignored his successful model from the SKA. I also heard it will be NO LIVE BAIT and possibly no trolling either. We will see as info comes out.

Will it be a good thing or a bad thing??? It will probably not have any impact on the amount of mortality at all. It will put more of a focus on the fishery, driving revenues for the industry, and that would have to be a good thing. We have lost six or sevent locals around the Boston/South Shoire Area in three years. I know that two others are in trouble. The Internet sales do more to damage the locals thqan WalMart willever do, though I am niot afan of Wal Mart either.
