Glad other guys never fished a sponsored tourney like I have or else

I'm afraid Dwayne, if the local tackel shop has no problem with it, why should you? Did you come in 2nd?
Jose(?) explains it all, without hiding any thing. If the tackle shop wants to pull their award, I'm guessing they'll probably not have a problem with it.
It wasn't the most bonafide catch, but it sure was one hell of a story.
I'm with Jim, more Stripers caught in recent years, and would love for it to continue. Makes me wonder if they can't full scale introduce them, get them really pumped up like the WSBs have done lately. I'd pay an extra dollar or two on my license, if funding is a problem, to try a re-introduction program like that down here.

Congratulations to you guys. Good stories.
Aaron

P.S. Even though you don't have many posts (50+) on this website, I don't think you have to be worried about "shutouts" from a guy who only has 5 posts on this one

They guy from ACe tackle that was hosting the tourney. Was present and watched the whole thing. If he had no problem with the way the fish was brought to shore then he would have brought it to our attention.
I too wouldn't mind putting extra $ for a fishing license to have more Stripers into the SOcal areas.

I'm not worried at all

Again congrats on the trophey bass, both of them, however in this climate we are currently in with, "califorthem" and the dfg, I highly doubt, when a
price hike to the licenses that we are buying, to have less area to fish and more restrictions on them, do you honestly think they would do the "right thing" with the extra money? I mean they have already stopped stocking many local lakes and streams...which is what we pay for...just a thought

Congrats!!! Way to end the year!

That ain't the thing here, I said what I think is the right thing to do. If you don't agree; cool, that's your biz. Having 495 more BS posts before sharing my opinion doesn't change my opinion.

Sport requires sportsmanship.
