2011 Striper Cup Team S-B
Who's in?
In light of increased pressure - minimum team weight fish to consider should be 35#s to make it until the end of the year.
Multiplier is same as last year 1.18 per pound shore, 1:1 boat.
Bring Back The Cup!

Im having a tough time deciding. I think the right thing to do is pass and just fish as usual. But on the other hand i had a couple last year that would have helped the team, instead i helped the fishery.

Targeting BIG fish, I injure a LOT less smaller fish.

And I revisit every year whether to field the team and gave it a lot of thought this year. We need the stock assessments.
As far as the tourney goes, the damage is minimal compared to a lot of other tournaments and charters. Toss in the Cluster Bleep that happens in various places.
If we keep ourselves in check, we will have minimal impact. Next year, if regs and stock assessment change, we'll dial back or dial out. OTW must be vigilant in minimizing impact further next year.

This is the year to set an example.
The impact is small but other teams, tournaments will follow to create a larger impact which can change regulations to for the better.
S-B already won OTW SC shore division so what is there to prove.

I'm not fishing in the cup this year.
No need for stock assessments to tell me what I've been seeing is not good.
I'll still kill fish on occasion, just not all the bigs.
Minimal impact is still negative impact and I refuse to offer OTW as a scapegoat for my own bad judgement any longer.
Maybe a decrease in participation will send a clear message to the good folks at OTW that a breeder kill tournament does not bode well for the future of striped bass.
If you care about the future of striped bass it's time to make a difference.

I'm with John... one day of charter guys equals total fish weighed in for this tourny... I keep to eat fish between 28-35in... i kept only one fish to weigh in last season... the one that counted...
unfortunatley the bait is having a difficult time finding us surf mokeys close to shore... hence why i personally think the shore fishing has been more difficult...

never been in... Always thought killing bass for my own ego was kind of perverse.
I'm not against killing a few fish for the table. My preference is all...
