It really has

Odds are as big as Rayburn is they'll probably be some club tournaments going on at the same time the MLF and HS teams are rolling and it will handle it just fine. If Fork can handle 2000 plus fisherman on any given weekend for a tournament and its roughly at 1/5 the size of Rayburn?????

That's a good thing. Put all the tournaments on the same lake, same day so they don't screw up the rest of the lakes for those of us that care nothing about any of them.

I like it!

with high school huge participation and forward sonar (don't cast til you see a fish) not sure what the future of bass fishing is gonna be like....

Well, we know that MLF will have 3 million hours of air time, exposing the professional anglers in the spotlight of stardom. Just any minute now, they will be paid more than professional dart competition throwers.







One of the smartest ideas I think I’ve read here. Instead of trashing all the lakes, just have a few dedicated tournament lakes.

obviously you have nothing of any value to add to the subject....

Nope, should I just whine about it, like everyone else. Maybe I should whine about FFS, would you feel complete then? Are you whining about FFS being used on the BPT?

Was that the tourney where the captain was blatantly cheating using a ladder, then in a example of pure sportsmanship and on the water etiquette he cuts off Castledine and called him a d..... while Castledine was filming ????? That tourney???? Lolz probably need to let area stores know to stock up on laundry baskets as well.

Actually, they are getting host assistance from chambers of commerces and tourism associations, like a CVB or A&P committee. Everything above a BFL usually has some form of transaction to assist in costs of holding the event on site. Some BFL events have assistance also. It can be hotel rooms, food and monetary exchanges. Also cooperation with local authorities on facilities and securing ramp permits.

And no, they can’t concern themselves with hundreds of local events they don’t know even are happening. The ETSHS event is huge, but most are off their radar in most cases.

I don't understand, Slim...you say the HS teams have the advantage of being able to be on the good spots first and they are such a big deal they're not going anywhere...so, why are you on here whining?

Little man I never considered comp of four motel rooms as payment . But I guess you win .
And I still stand by my opening statement ( MLF heads are dirty dogs )

This thread made you look a little foolish.

They’re not purposely scheduling over anyone in a particular region. They run over 200 events a year and there’s only so many weekends. It’s not personal, it’s just math. They’re operating their business, not worrying about what everyone else is doing. We all battle schedules and have crossover that we can’t control.
