My thoughts on Wannabe's thoughts.

1) Membership - No. I was going to fish Magnolia's Sardis tournament this summer until I figured out it would cost my wife and I $50 each for a membership plus the entry fee, just to fish one tournament.

2) Committee - YES. It's the only way to go. When the need arises open a discussion like this one then have the committee vote. But I think how they voted should be posted on line.

3) Tournaments - 8 + championship at nine different lakes. Just because there are lakes out there I haven't fished yet/

4) Championship - 3 to qualify

5) Camps - At every tournament. If you add two camps in addition to nine tournaments I think the attendence will suffer greatly. I think the committee should stay out of the camp planning. This is where a poll could come in handy. It could be as big or as small as the need dictated. People could participate or not. It might be a big cookout on Saturday afternoon or just a small group going to dinner on Friday night.

6) Scheduling - Set our schedule and fish it. I don't want to see us cramming 3 tournaments in 6 weeks just because someone else is holding a tournament. March - November. Nine tournaments in nine months, somewhat evenly spaced.

7) Saturdays - Tournaments are on Saturdays.

8) Entry Fees - Are about right. But it sure would be nice to pay $500 to win. Five longbed twenty's aint nothing to sneeze at.

Just my thoughts.
