With the atmosphere around the striper population, release mortality concerns and the slot limit, a lot of striped bass tournaments have gone the way of the dodo (at least the previously successful ones anyway.) Also, most all the guys I have spoken to who used to run tournaments have no interest in running them any longer due to negative perception even of the c&r format.

This fall the Edge ran perhaps the only way I can see one proceed right now in that there was no emphasis on the size of the fish entered to win prizes. While the sentiment is great and I participated, I know a lot of guys who found it hard to find the motivation to participate in light of the lottery format.
