Yes, winning is extra special (I've won one), but it would be a shame to think that these tournaments was not for the fun of it. I've noticed that Feelay doesn't participate in the Fir nite talegate cookouts, that's a big reason I fish with MCC. Carl, you might get a different perspective if you joined in the social aspect of it.
I have feshed green carp tourney's in a semi-big way and it aint all that fun. The day fun is gone I will be out, quit fishing completely other than spring crappie fishing when I got burnt out. Dont get me wrong, when on the water I am gonna fish as hard as I can to get my limit and hope to start culling but I wont be ill at the weigh-in cause I got my butt handed to me. I fully intend to win some FJ Jar's next year but if 'n I dont I will be at the next one.
Good attitude John, I'm with you.Quote:

Keep it fun guys.. See u next fall.
I never said that I wouldn't love to win and when I'm on the lake during a tourney I'm all business, but when I stop enjoying it, I'll quit.Quote:

Hunter, the Championship you witnessed is the most competitive tourney we have and yeah it was all business. The willingness to help and the welcome I was afforded earlier this summer sold me on the Crappie.com Fruit Jars. Good folks and good times for sure. I fished water this year that I havent ever crappie fish and it was because of the guys and gals here, just that simple and I hope it will stay simple. I have more fun at dinner on Friday night than I do during the tourney, fellowship is what it is about for me.Quote:

I agree with Hunter also it's really about the bragging, and the ribbin rights. The only problem with that is you have to win to get the rights.
