I am contemplating joining the Striper Cup for the first year. The only thing that is holding me back is the concept of actually keeping a fish. I only keep a occassional fish for the table but i dont think i could do it often for a tournement. Idk we will see.

This is what I was getting at above. Each team member can only have his top two fish count for the team for the year. Only keep a fish to weigh in if it is over 40, or a high 30.

I don't like looking at the scoreboard early in the year and seeing tons of 18-19lb stripers weighed in. It does nothing for your team, and you aren't gonna win a weekly for it.

The only benefit of weighing fish early on is the weekly prizes

I'll fish the Striper Cup again, I''l have a chance at a pin and a T-shirt.
And I'll fish the Troll Derby where I'll have a chance at a real good time.
