Makes you wonder why they would hold the tourney in a state that would REQUIRE a medical test to compete and FORCE someone to potentially to sit out based on that test. Now if the tests were 100% accurate...and they clearly aren’t...it’s likely some have to sit out even though the next test may prove them negative. And heaven forbid if any competitor was around any the guys that tested positive as they will have to be isolated too, right. Hell they might end up with only like 23 anglers for this tourney when proximity factors ripple through

It was a horrible decision to keep NY on the schedule when all this got rolling, and they should have put in the time and effort to find a better venue. One that wouldn’t have to essentially scrub the year of competition, as getting a mulligan on the front nine is amateur hour and what they are right now. It was 100% self inflicted. There are plenty of other lakes and states that could have easily accommodated them with just the slightest vision, but nobody there seems to possess that core trait.

Leadership is lazy and shortsighted and simply trying to hold on the the field with all the money going away just so they have so they have something next year. The newer young anglers self funding ain’t gonna be good as they likely don’t have the resources without putting their personal finances at risk, it’s easy to see. I thought I heard TheG called Boid to see if he could pay another 55k to actually come back over, but that is unconfirmed. Seems if they are going to push this year, they better make it two years so not to affect the ones that would have solidified their position with hard work and focus this year just to possibly lose it next year.

...it’s all very weak and I’m sure you all recognize it like I do. Now whether you are willing to admit it..well that’s another story. There are just too many tied to “the industry” to actually have an opinion of their own have to tread lightly publicly or the 15% discount goes bye-bye.

Did Big O change his name and switch sides?

You seem informed: What goes into setting these tournaments locations originally? And what all needs to be done to move the events? What do the logistics look like and costs associated with a last minute changes?
You make it sound very easy to do.

Also, fill us in on Swindle asking to return. That’s breaking news and really shocking considering the kind words he had for them after he left. And what money and Anglers are leaving? Where do they go?

what fiasco for jimmie? he tested positive on a wed or thur test and was negative 5 to 6 days later.

it was his first test and he only got it because his wife wasnt feeling well with allergy like symptoms and she got tested and was positive.

jimmie could have had covid and gave it to his wife... when he got tested, his first test ever on that wed or thur he may have already had covid for 10 days and just never showed any symptoms.

THAT is called asymptomatic... a carrier of covid who can walk around sharing it but has no symptoms showing.

Dale Jarrett was asymptomatic also... I think he got tested to travel to something and it turned out he was positive and he self quarantined and NEVER had any sickness or any symptoms..
