Beetle:

I was also a bit surprised at the reaction regarding the tournament committee. All you guys dedicate lots of personal time to the club and even more during such an event. It seems to me very difficult to, run the tournament, have fun fishing in it and keep tabs on all the fish caught.

All should remember this was not a big money event for personal gain. It was a charity, and thats what is important.

I think the committee should NOT have to give up their opportunity to fish because of the need for record keeping.

I will suggest that there NOT be a published hotline, and people rely on information they gather themselves. (call the bait shops, friends, members...whatever).

I was mentioned that if there is not enough help, next year's tournament could be cut. I for one hope that does not happen and I will again offer help (more next year) to take the pressure off the main committee members.
