Again, I ask why?? ? why do they suddenly become better fisherman because they hold a comm lic???? I know plenty of recs who catch the same number of fish each day and toss em back?? Should Charter captains be banned also??


There are guys in my club RISAA Who cant catch fish in a barrell yet on occasion win in the boat division some years ....Why? because they charter well known bass slayers (charter capts) and basically get put on a good fish...should they be disqalified from the tourney? because they hired" a charter captain? does that count as basically buying there fish??

rec = can keep 2......if you keep 2 that you think are large and then catch bigger....tough luck

It is not all whining and jealousy, it is called putting down a somewhat level playing field so everyone gets to play by the same rules. There is quantifiable advantage - when played to the letter of the law - to the commercial rod & reel angler in this tournament. It is currently allowed in the rules by OTW, and no reason to change it mid stream for this season. But it is fact that it favors the commercial angler during this tournament. It is fact that it is not a level playing field for all anglers in this tourney. I'm not against commercial fishing for bass (not very pro either - just don't think that debate is the problem) - this is not a rec -v- comm thing and this is not a boat -v- surf thing. It is a numbers game and the number potential during a day of fishing is staggered in the comm bass fisher's favor.

Jealousy has absolutely nothing to do with this.

Thank you John for saying that. I'm so sick of guys saying things like this are all about jealosy. That's got nothing to do with it.

Anyone with half a brain knows the comms have an advantage under these rules. But that's the rules for this year. Deal with it.

Will the comms be in the running next year if they can't weigh in fish during the comm season, most likely. They know how to catch big fish. But it helps level the field quite a bit.
