Gordon banned any 2 lure rig when he banned the Alabama Rig. This includes a 2 fluke rig, a jig as a drop shot weight or a jig as a c-rig weight and any other you can think about.
Can you say Senior Moment?

You can look at the bright side, it will be easier to get an AOY if you're only fishing against 15 teams all year.

Whats next power poles and talons and just like i asked him this year at the ind champ on the red river when will you bring a ind champ on the westside and he said never so to me and others that is catering to your a group of people and other states and makeing other guys drive! This whole deal could open a big can of worms and iam just saying my opinion!

Other than the Lake Fork division its already there... I cant tell you how many anglers I know that wont bother fishing anything right now because divisions cant draw more than a 35 average (other than Champs). What happened to 100 boat tournaments?? Oh thats right everyone decided to make more divisions on top of more divisions, heck lets add a Sunday division that fishes the same stuff the Sat division in the same area does.. then add 2 more divisions to spread everyone out even more! Throw in 3 new trails trying to start up in the same over saturated areas and what do you get?? AWFUL turnouts, horrible payouts, and a big flat waste of time and money! Rant over, carry on. smile

+1

Yeap couldn't agree more. It also really hurts a trail when they change their championship date after the first event. Then change a scheduled Saturday event into "you get to pick if you want to fish Saturday or Sunday because FLW was on the lake Thur-Sat and anglers were crying that the fishing would be tough and the lake was beat up.

I'm stepping down off my soap box now. You'll carry on

Didn't you just win a BLT event where only 26 boats fished? Thats even less than Media.The problem is the economy sucks and theres to many trails.

Yep and they didn't have all those restrictions and championships right here in Texas. That's what the guys in this post are complaining about.

It was also same weekend as bass champs championship along with terrible weather and storms...

Ya'll don't get on Media soooo hard! Gordon still has some good trails and still gives away a good boat at his championships. You can't please everybody all the time.

Each Trail has it's Pros and Cons! We all know that each Tourney Trail does something that we all like and that we all also dislike.

And, as what was stated earlier, there's no shortage of options if you don't like one particular trail for any given reason.

With 15,000,000 options on which divisions to fish... It's probably easier just fishing one lake and jackpotting all that come there! Those fork guys make some cash fishing one lake!
