I just got through looking over the online registration and now I have question on the entry fee. I am not questioning the $100 entry fee per boat but why is it costing an extra fee to have a lady angler or junior angler on board? When we fish the regular sanctioned tournaments there is not an extra fee for this. It is one of the extra ways to win a prize and is used as more of an encouragement for boats to have a senior, lady or junior angler on their boat. As most of you know my husband and I fish as a team. He is the senior angler and I am the lady angler and sometimes we have our grandson on board as the junior. This tournament could cost us $200, as much as it is in a regular sanctioned tournament, $100 entry fee, $50 calcutta, $25 lady angler, $25 jr. angler. And what is the prize for winning the lady or jr.? Maybe I am looking at this in a differnet way but I just feel like it is discouraging instead of inspiring people to fish and have family involvment . My opinion is this should be an extra incentive as it is in the regular tournaments. Remember we are all intitled to our opinions and opinions are like noses some of them smell more than others and mine may smell really bad right now.
