Wallyworld specs out a certain amount of space for big nationally carried fishing products – Bomber, Storm, etc. They get the reps of these companies in a little room at their headquarters in Arkansas and then squeeze em' until they get the best price.

But for the stuff that is regionally specific, my understanding is that they hook up with a local distributor and give them so many square feet of fishing isle and let them fill it as they see fit. If the numbers don’t make it, they get a new distributor.

I don,t GAF who runs a tournament / but when it comes to money //never mind big money ============It will without doubt draw the biggest cheaters in the business // been there / seen it . F #$%^&*( unreal =what people will do for the glory & the money

I will never ever fish a tournament again nor will I join any club / I did recently join rissa /but will not fish ==I did it because I feel they do some good things for kids & Once a month I see some good friends >><><<

I could easliy write a book with the info I have on what has gone on in tournaments in the past & one that is still presant ////

BUT the glory ,greedy ,almighty fish mobster would probably have me erased /before it ever got published .....

ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!

MIKE
