the dude (guy or gal) who coined the term "look for the hook"
(designed logo) should be flogged with wreckless abandon....
next the fish populations of largemouth bass ,walleye,redfish,and kingfish
need to be studied to see how these tournaments have affected
their over all health
....to see how hybrid striped bass would prosper in comparison to that information.
when they say: "in response to over whelming demand..."
what they're really saying is :
because of enormous
profit potential!
and thats from Maine to Virginia ...not the reverse. morons
I think
the striped bass hybrid is the most under utilized food fish
North America has ever seen and it should be introduced into more fresh water
lakes nationwide because of how prolific it is... IMO
and agreeing with Pete...it's all about boats...advertising boats-->
commercials for boats...seeing their boats catching fish in the north east
instead of only down south is their goal....
as stated :
hydra sports ,well craft, and sea swirl boat owners will have priority entry...
thats a major unfair manuever right off the bat... and geared specifically towards generating new sales..
those sponsers will be donating one or more of their boats for the winner to further
their own advertising campaigns and then write them off later on.
it's also about walmart preparing to to battle with bass pro and cabelas move's on the chessboard.
