Hi Dave,

I`m torn between the excitement of a new tourney with cool prizes, ( I have never entered any fishing tournament), and the fact that Striped Bass have to be killed to enter. The ill feeling is that this will hurt the Striper population.

On a personal level, if I enter, I would only keep and report a large bass over 40#. At the same time I realize I would release even this one fish if I was lucky enough to catch it, if I was not in the contest.

Magnify this by all the possible contestants and it doesn`t look good for the Striped Bass.

Mike

Good health and family
