Not saying it's good or bad, but once OTW openly allowed "commercial anglers" to participate they opened up Pandora's Box, and you can't "put the genie back in the bottle" now!

I had entered the first 2 years and stopped. It just wasn't worth it.
(Same reason I canceled my subscription to the magazine.)

After they bounced around from venue to venue, from year to year, changing sponsors from year to year, it definitely looks like OTW and Stripercup will soon be cruising off into the sunset as a good idea that couldn't maintain their fan base.

When they started moving further and further south, and kept change the beer sponsors, they completely lost my interest.

Oh well, at least there will be plenty of ice fishing derbies to look forward to this winter!!!
