This is just me, but i say let OTW water run the tourney the way they want to this year. Hopefully, they take note that so many people out there are concerned with bass mortality and will change the format next year. To assume that we on this board have the pull to change what they do is not reality. It will take many many many people sending them letters and e-mails to get them to budge. This thread is a good basis for them to go by, but this thread will probably not be their bible when or if they make the new rules. What will be the decision maker for them in the end is how much $ goes into their coffers.. so if you dont agree, dont join. If you agree with them, then sign up. If you disagree with everything OTW does, then cancel your subscription. Personally, i am not going to enter- i dont want to kill anymore fish with the hopes of winning somethign for it. If i kill a fish it will be for a dinner party.
one more thing- a percentage of people that would kill a bass to win this tourney would have killed the fish anyway for food or for the taxidermist.
