Congrats Ken and Donna! Looks like the infamous JT is in the background too! Very tough field to compete in, hard work pays off.

So...
They upped the kill 50% as the number of big fish was on the decline?
Or did upping the kill 50% drive the average down?

I believe they increased the number of events by 50%.... Each event would be over a couple days, as opposed to a five month long, 24/7 tourney like the Striper Cup. This would be why you might be surprised by the lower average weight.
