Tommy gave me his schedule on June 7, 2012 for this current 2013 Season. They were not posted until August on the mediabass.com website (because he had them so early, I was not ready in June). Perhaps you did not see them on the Media Bass website? Tommy posted them at this site on December 6.

Can you show me any promotional video for the A-Rig that does not tout multiple catches?
Lures with treble hooks may catch more than one fish, but it is not intended to, just to ensure catching the one that bites.
The A-Rig is intended with five lures with hooks in them to catch multiple bass.
This can pose a problem with culling as I stated earlier. Not to mention the five bass in a live-well rule (credible tournaments all have this rule)

Bowlers only use one ball, should they be allowed more?

They were not on the Media bass site that early. The East Teams was one of the LAST schedules put on the media Bass site. That is s fact. I checked it over and over and sent several emails trying to get the info. The dates were finally posted, just the dates were on the site and no lakes were stated for the dates posted. What good is a schedule with dates if the lake that coincides with the date isn't posted until a few weeks before the season starts??? That is silly. By then I had decided to fish something else. You get more participants when you post the dates with the Lake the tournament is being held earlier .

Terrible analogy. Bowlers use more than one ball in tournaments. Sometimes two or three as the lane changes.

The dates were there when I said they were posted because I put them there. You clearly want to argue without facts. Not a good thing to do.

With your logic, then we should take some side cutters and cut all our treble hooks down to one hook. Because we wouldn't want to catch more than one fish on our treble hooks baits now would we? It doesn't cause a problem with culling unless the person is a dummy.

Seriously? Anglers have many rod/reels but are not allowed to use them at the same time. I am aware of bowling. You cannot use them at the same time was my point.

I can't even catch one fish on the a-rig.....

Chris , I'm pretty sure Gordon meant one bowling ball at a time.......but I could be wrong.

I think Media moved cause of the Grass problem on Tyler!

You are slanting what I say for your sake of argument, I sense.

You are taking it way out of context and struggling to grasp the analogy he is presenting.

If you have 5 fish in the livewell and are using a a rig, middle of summer, and hook 3 fish. How long will it take you to cull? This is somewhat of a unique situation, but that is the question at hand.

Also, a crankbait is a SINGLE bait with multiple hooks, intended for 1 fish. The a-rig is a multi-bait presentation designed to catch multiple fish at the same time. You have stated you don't like media's rules or their scheduling. Seems like you should just fish something else.

I should add though that after enough beers , I have tried to bowl using a bowling ball in each hand.....I was soon after asked to leave. I was not in a tournament though.

The dates may have been posted but the LAKES that went with those dates were not posted until the last minute. By then everybody else had a schedule already out. That is the way it was. Example of what ACTUALLY happened: You can Post January 12, 2014 February 15, March 2 ect.....but what good are those dates without the lake/Water body listed with them. That is useless information and that is exactly what occurred.

What a dodge. I would doubt anyone has caught more than 2 at a time on an A rig.and probably the vast majority have caught no more than 1. Please be honest in your posts.
