Saltheart- my comments were not meant to exclude anyone as much as making the playing field level. Most tournaments have boat and shore divisions.....I realized I used the "no bait" phrase...that's just my subconscious aversion to that method of fishing coming to the fore <g>. No harm meant to those who chunk et al... this method often produces bigger fish. It is also unusual for a shore based catch to be the largest fish in any tournament. Not impossible, but very unlikely. Best bassing grounds are generally accessible by boat. If you really want to stack the odds, swim eels from a boat. I am aware of the exceptions, but there ain't enough of 'em.
Sounds like there maybe enough interest and donations to have divisions reflecting how members prefer to fish. This would truly make it inclusive.
