The tell it all will be a requiremrn before anyone is paid. Remember, this trail is a fun, learning event that pays rewards. I will personally see to it next weekend at Conway. I think all will be impressed with the tell all next weekend. Even if me and my partner dont do well, I will tell all from a "Pro" perspective of what we did and why.
I cannot offer anymore advice than that. I can't speak of the rest of the trail but the central regions I am confident will be very informative, I promise.
Need some more input from ya'll in South Arkansas.
You got: Chicot, Grand, Lake Lee, MS River backwater lakes(when the river levels are right), Pendelton (Ar River), Douglas Lake, White Oak lake, Cane Creek
Split the state into 4 divisions: east, west, south, north. Then multiple tourneys can be held on the same day in differnent locations. Have a winner in each part of the state. Pick a championship lake that cannot be fished in the regular season tournaments and have a championship tournament with the top two point leaders from each division: Save everybody money!!
That would be great if we had enough teams in each division.Quote:

I am good with whatever you all decide, and will attend when ever I can, but I think the larger this thing gets you all will loose focus of what you all are starting this for. It's going to be all about money...which is fine with me but I think most others will not like it.
I will not let it loose focus, the money isn't the main key here. If it gets to the point of being too large, that's where the pro trail comes in.
I really don't know where it'll wind up going, but I hope it remains fairly small, say 20-30 boats maximum per tourney?
My opinion is, that it is on the right track. If it gets too large then we can talk about divisions. I think the tell all rule will help keep it on track and keep a good many novice fisherman comming. If it ever gets all about money then you will see a lot of people deciding that it's better to fish for free rather than give their money to the same people all the time. But if we are learning then we should all be getting better. That will make it worth giving up a few bucks to learn from the masters.
I believe it will take all of us to keep it focused but I know there are a lot of good, honest people that will come and join in.
