Champ...Thanks for making the point about being able to have 6 anglers on a boat. The other thing that sets us apart is that you are able to fish for 2 full days..>Saturday AND Sunday. So technically speaking, you have 12 opportunities at a money fish + the calcutta. Even with 3 guys, the opportunity to live well and cull a fish or two is there.

The bay being devoid of fluke is a big thing. Not being able to fish relatively protected waters and known fishing grounds hurts as well. Im curious...Has there been any research about the abundance of the dogfish and how it relates to fluke? I would love to know how that population explosion has put a damper on the fluke.

One of the other subjects brought up offline was guaranteed money for the event. Up until covid, we guaranteed $5700 in total prize money. Never had to worry about number of boats entering the tourney...we know our break even and cannot afford to run to a deficit. Therefore, like other events...we split the entry money up proportionally. Does this honestly and truly make a difference in your eyes or not really?
