totally agree with a lot of what has been posted here. I think the comms guys taking it over really hurt it, although I agree it is well within their rights to do so. Maybe its fun for those guys, but IMO it has taken the fun out of it for the "average" fisherman.

Some of the best "tournaments" are the friendly ones that clubs have and I agree we should try and do more of those types of things on this site, understanding that its tough to get dates nailed down in season...

^ Most of the regulars on Team S-B have comm licenses too as did I when I fished it. I don't see it as a huge advantage for any one team.

The only additional smoothing out OTW could do for the team competition is make it one fish per angler towards the total.

As for the other stuff there's big prizes, thus big incentives, for folks to bend and/or break the rules. Without enforceable guidelines for the weigh stations its too easy for someone to cheat.
