Dave - this debate isn't constructive? I've seen similar talk, though brief, on the SNESA list. A president of a well respected RI fishing club has presented many issues with the current rules. Yet, "lots of ears are listening" but we're being too negative. I don't follow you. They are listening but don't like what is being said? They are a fantastic magazine, really (not just plugging for a free subscription), they have great writers and contributors, and their show, thought it competes in my household with Teen Titans and What not to Wear (just guess who gets left out) is excellent. It doesn't mean that we should lemming our way on over to the signup sheet.
I personally think the idea of bringing back a large tourney on the likes of the old Schaefer Cup is a great venture. Sponsored by my favorite beer to boot.
BUT could the tourney be a little more conservation freindly? Uhh, yep. And that is what is getting debated here and rationally for the most part. Don't see it as a dig against OTW. Its not. This is open discussion. And it is being discussed by a few well respected members of the fishing community in addition to the rest of the riff-raff (myself included)...
So, seeing that people are reading, are they listening?
