I don't but when you find out post up cause when time allows I'll be getting out there with you big boys.....
I am going to start fishing the CAT tourneys this year and was looking at registration form kind of getting ready. I noticed the first question and I have no idea what the difference is. It states Division 1 and Division 2. Any idea what these divisions mean?

I believe under tournament rules,I just read it looks to explain Div.1 and Div.2
Thank you. I checked out the rules and found this. It is not easy to understand, so basically I am going to have to call someone on it, but I will post it here for those interested.
Teams a. Team members must have valid applicable fishing and boating licenses when participating in any tournament b. All CAT Qualifier tournaments will be a competition among fishing Teams in two separate Divisions fishing against Teams that are in the same Division c. A Team must be made up of CAT Members only and must have not more than (i) two CAT Members, (ii) two CAT Members and a Junior Angler, or (iii) one CAT Member and two Junior Anglers d. A “Junior Angler” is any angler that is not yet 18 years old and is a minor child of a Team member or other minor whose parent or legal guardian (that is a CAT Member) has authorized such minor to fish with the CAT Member and has signed the appropriate releases, as determined by the Board of Directors e. A CAT Member cannot be on more than one Team in any tournament, but may qualify to fish in the TSCC on more than one Team at different CAT Qualifier tournaments f. Teams members must fish from the same Boat g. In Division 1, once a “Team” is declared on a tournament entry form, those two Team members must actually fish together in the tournament entered or the following CAT Qualifier. After the Team members have actually fished together, one of those Team members may fish without the other Team member in any CAT Qualifier or the TSCC on behalf of the original Team. h. Once a Division 1 Team qualifies to fish in the TSCC, either of those Team members may fish without the other Team member in the
TSCC on behalf of the original Team. If both Team members of the qualified Team want to fish separately in the TSCC, then one Team member may fish in the TSCC on behalf of the original Team, and the other Team member must qualify to fish in the TSCC independently or as a part of a different Team. If both Team members of the qualified Team want to fish in the TSCC on behalf of the original Team and neither Team member has qualified independently or as a part a different Team to fish in the TSCC, then neither Team member of the original Team may fish in the TSCC on behalf of the original Team. 3. Divisions a. Each CAT tournament will be made up of two Divisions: Division 1 and Division 2 b. Any Team may compete in Division 1 in any Tournament c. The following individuals will be prohibited from competing in Division 2 i. Individuals who won a total of $750 or more in any Crappie tournaments (excluding Crappiefest) in the previous calendar year ii. Any person that is a fishing guide, as defined by TP&W regulations, or has been a fishing guide during the previous calendar year iii. Any individual who was named CAT Angler of the Year or CAT Co-Angler of the Year in the previous year iv. Any other individual specifically prohibited from competing in Division 2 by the Board of Directors d. Any individual that is prohibited from competing in Division 2 by the above rule may ask the Board of Directors in writing for an exception to fish in Division 2, and such exception may be granted by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion

There are a good many guys over at TFF Crappie Board that fish CAT or at least they use to.
Skip
CAT has some rather unfriendly, rather clicky folks playing wanna be whatevers in it , this much I know factually, careful what you wish for .
There is a determination in there that isnt so nice, most of them hang around on that " other" forum I got banned off of for trying to be friendly and tell a few fish stories .

I did find some real nice folks that I ketch fish with in there ….
not all of the forum members and its cat guys are bad ….
Sk and Ez both met me over there back when

The way I read it, if you are a good fisherman, you can't fish in division 2.
Tell'em I'll be there.
