Yeh but it gives those of us that do live SOUTH of grenada a chance to not have to spend $300 like we do every tourney to get a tourney in. I woulda been at the championship had it not been for us selling our house. Look at Washington and Chotard. You had 5 or 6 from South of grenada in each of those

2) not interested in traveling with the primarily southern MCC
3) not interested in membership fees or $100 entry fees
We averaged 16 boats per tourney this year, had 12 fish the Championship.. Only one boater showed up from south of Grenada to fish the Championship... It's hard to continue to go south when our average is less than 10 boats pr tourney..

Why don't you 5 or 6 teams down south fish 5 or 6 tournaments on Barnett, Okatibbee, Wolf, and Chotard. Then we'll combine the championship.

I really like ATMs idea. The north fish the big 4 and the south fish their 4 lakes and for the championship put all the lakes in a hat and draw or you could even pick a neutral site that neither has fished all year

Jeez O Pete... The whole idea is competition and comradery not dysfunction and division...

You don't want to fish up here. You don't want to fish down there. Where do you want to fish?

I understand completly. I just believe that we could get more participation by doing it like that. I know of a couple ppl in TN and AR that would like to fish but cant make all the southern tournaments and im sure there is ppl farther south that cant make the trip up north.
