Well, Paul, we have that already, in the off-season.

I'd really like to think that OTW would have a problem with guys switching sides after the fact. Going from no club to club? That's one thing, but even so, there should be a cut-off point. I don't think that anyone at OTW is debating that Greg was still unaffiliated when he weighed in his two earlier big fish. Weigh one fish in, that's it. You're committed to whatever status you had at registration.

As far as the Schaeffer Cup goes, just thinking back on the history of the Striper Cup, I don't think that a legitimate "club", as most fishermen would define a fishing club, has ever won it, and that includes us. RISAA came the closest. Anglers join established clubs for a variety of reasons, competition being only one of those.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
