I haven't joined the Cup since 2006, and even when I did, I didn't enter any fish. I really love releasing bigger fish. Of course I've killed my share, but the thought of killing 5 (or more) big fish in one season is outside my mental capacity or something. I just can't do it. I kept one fish last year and it ended up winning a tournament and I still regret not releasing it.
The big thing here is that this needs to be promoted. If you guys like the idea, please spread it around on FB or other boards etc. just remember gotight.net that's easy to remember.
Thanks for the support!
The only downside of running this thing is that I can't fish it! And it's going to be an assload of work, but it's something I really believe in.

Thanks Dennis, if I'm blessed with the opportunity to catch another 50, she's going back. If I ever keep another big fish, it's going to have to bottom out the 60# Boga! And even then I might not... that's one of those situations where you don't know what you'll do until it happens...
hope I get that chance!

Oh Balogna......
Dave fish it, this is mainly for fun to maybe win some gear not millions. This is a common rule that most every tourney has but I thought was always overblown. If everyone is on the honors system then it is all good. If your're worried about it, fish it for the fun and honors and if you happen to win put the prize back in the kitty.
I agree this does look like alllllot of work, I wish you the best of luck.....

hahaha, I have been thinking about entering a team and just, as you said, removing my ability to win a prize. Good chance I will do that. Thanks for making me feel better about the idea!

Why can't you enter the individual stage like everyone else? As a matter of fact we should insist on it. After my ignominious defeat in the Chuck tourney I want another shot at you
