Bob, I am with you on this one. I think the Striper Cup is an ill conceived contest. Let me see if I got this right...you fish all season and kill and register your fish, and then the winner of the boat is a name they draw out of a hat at the beer bash at the end of the season?? Is that about right?
I think The Fisherman Dream Boat contest is much better. Every week you get a listing of the leaders in the "magazine", and if you can't top the leaders and get "on the board", your fish can be released. At the end of the contest, the winner gets drawn from a bin that only has fishermen "on the board". And you don't need to be present to win, unlike On the Water. Also, The Fisherman lets you enter a fish if you subscribe to their magazine. There's no "entry fee" like On the Water charges.
