troubles

The Meat man on his team won't let him give up too much info! LOL.

So much for free speech. Topic locked!

You gotta be kidding Tony. That's even worse! Pro's betting on you against Al ! You couldn't even make your own bet!

Am divisions going to be mostly Seniors Division as it was this year anyway! LOL . No money there anyway Tom. And no offense taken Tom!

I didn't fish the Tourney at all since Sodus Am returned but that doesn't change the fact that: Primetime Pete won Am Cup 4 times and then went to Pro and never returned just for Money! Screamer won Am Cup 4 times and then went to Pro and never returned just for Money! Yankee Troller fished Am and went to Pro and never went back just for Money. Cannonball Eddie won Am Cup went to Pro and never went back. Sure there are others. Look nothing against Tony. He and his crew do great and are great fisherman. He has however reached the same level and fishes more each week than most of the Pro's. If he continues to enter as an Am it can only hurt the entry's and the Am division will die for sure. He needs to follow the examples of his peers. I've heard comments from many of the Pro's also that he shouldn't be doing what he did this year. They IMO just don't want to voice their opinion and be thought of as non political! Personally I don't care if I am. So Tony step up your game and do what's right next year. Please for the benefit of Am's who want to see these tournaments survive! PS Rick yes this string is Bull but I know that if Tony enters Oswego (his home waters) as an Am next year Am will certainly die in that tournament!! I'm done and I'm sure most of you are glad but when one change to a rule could hopefully help these two tournaments to grow it should be considered "For Sure"

We'll see how many Am teams next year! Hope for the best!

So then fish pro from now on Tony. Don't go back to Am just to finance your tournaments. Again rule change required!

Rick, Here's an idea make a trade Tony goes to pro Finders Keepers goes to Am !

Just Bustin! Don't take it the wrong way! Rick I thought you guys did that already at the OAK!

Maybe Screamer should go back and fish Am too !LOL. FishChopper would have to go though! LOL.

I still stand by my opinion regarding a rule change Tony !

congradulate?

congradulate?

Hell Rod he didn't even have a cell phone for most of that time !!!!

If you win a pro tournament and especially the pro cup rules should be changed to not allow Am fishing any more! All Im saying Tony. Congrats on your year! Your wins 2 years in a row at Sodus isn't going help improve number of Am entries! In addition your work schedule and the fact that you and the elderly gentleman fish almost every day puts you way ahead of the rest of the Am's. Just time for you to stay in the pro division!

WOW Really Tony - Trophy or money more important to you Am ?

Seems to me rules need some adjustments. Great finish Rod!

Mine did till I re sealed drain plug fitting

Thanks Mike I'll have a look

The model I'm looking for they don't make any more-new ones are way too stiff

Looking for the old eagle claw light SF400 7'6" light rods for Browns.

Should be a good weekend. Kings are starting to show and as Jeff said some really nice browns around!
