I have to agree with Satheart and Sandman. I think naming it Hall of Fame is a bad idea. Any Hall of Fame you go to for any sport is strongly based on performance. In fishing you cannot judge performance like any other sport and there arises the problem. In striper fishing there is no batting average, homerun total or number of championships won. The entry requirements then become subjective to peoples opinions. Questions become Who are the "mentors"? , Who made "contributions"?, Who did you look up to? Who is a "great" fisherman? whose your buddy? etc... There is no way to judge the answers to these questions and to evaluate them fairly since everyone will have different opinions.

I would be more in favor of a historical memorial page. Writing about past history is something completely different and is worthy of documentation. It's also much more palatable than saying that someone is deserving of "fame and recognition".
