I assumed you had to show it for the Derby when you registered.

The problem with the Striper Cup is that a lot of people register early online or register at the winter shows. They may not have purchased the rec license by the time they sign up for it.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Then they should make people show a license when they weigh in a fish.

Nobody thinks less of the saltwater license b.s. than I do, but if I shell out 10 bucks for a license and another 45 for the striper cup registration, I demand the same from my fellow competitiors.

I just ain't gonna join next year. I am tired of tournaments. In fact the last Tournament really enjoyed was the Schaefer Tournament. When the hell was that, 1971?

No boat, back in the suds.

Where is all of this hostility coming from? Oakley, Clammer, now J. I think Mr Clammer is older than me and no one slams him.

Just remember all you youngster, what I have forgotten, you haven't learned yet.

Bryan, I'll firm up tomorrow night with you during the day tomorrow. I am around all day.

What's to stop someone from making up a phony number if they register online? OTW isn't going to run a computer check even if they had the ability to do it.

Sure, but the problem is getting the weigh stations to take the time. I entered two fish in 5 years. One was weighed in at Mike's. The other? I practically had to beg the guy to even get his digital scale out from under the counter. I got a "I hope you're gonna buy something if I drop everything and do this for you".

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
