There already is a "pro" or "semi-pro" striper tour. The ASA striper tour runs up and down the coast. It came to Old Saybrook, CT last year. While I did not see it, there were some serious competitors there with some crazy fast boats. There were a couple of Fountains with trips that were moving around at speeds better than 60. From what I have heard these guys fish the same spots almost without regard to where the tournament starts. It was said that some of the tournament anglers in the New Jersey stop on the tour ran up to fish the rips between the north fork of LI and Watch Hill.
The ASA tour does allow live baits (bunker). And I was really impressed with the number of 40 to 50 pound fish that were weighed in at each stop on the tour.
I think that an average Joe can pony up the entry fee and fish in the ASA, but if this new tour is $2500, there won't be so many average Joes.....
