Shared weight in 2005?
I was looking at the open/elite 50 trail for next year and they had a
paragraph about riders will now have a 3-fish limit but will get to count their driver's 5-fish limit to their total? I thought a bit about this but it just doesn't seem to sit well with me. It is possible that a person with no fishing ability could pay the entry fee, do nothing, and still place somewhere in the money because of their driver. In fact, a good rider could be punished with a bad driver while a bad rider could benefit from a great driver. Am I misunderstanding this or does this really seem as bad as I think it sounds? |

Sounds like they are copying what the walleye trails have done for years.

You get in the back of Shaw Grigsby's rig while he's bed-fishing & you'll be
glad his weight counts lol... Warren "Christopher P. Cericola" wrote in message groups.com...

THat's my point..winning the rider side isn't necessarily skill anymore..all it takes is being partenered with a very skilled pro. As a rider, I could cull 3 bass for 12 lbs which is a pretty decent limit..but get killed because my driver sleeps at the wheel. Christopher |

No offense Chris, but you've got it backwards.

Let's just say that winning as an amateur in these things has little to do
with skill. It's all about getting the good rides. Warren "Christopher P. Cericola" wrote in message groups.com... "go-bassn" wrote in message ... No offense Chris, but you've got it backwards. Got it backwards? How so? Christopher |

But I think with this combined weight it will really show that more and remove any competition on the rider side. BTW - I haven't heard from Bill so I'm assuming there was no rider seat available for either the next two tournies? Christopher |

I could be wrong, but that's the way I remember it going down. I have to suffer behind the human vacuum for that tournament and hope he leaves a dink or two for me. I can see it now: 50 fish caught, 0 fish weighed...all 11 3/4 inches long.

You are correct, Chris is with Bill at RVR. No seat on the river for him
unfortunately. As for you Harry, just call me "Hoover". lol, we'll have a blast (if we don't sink). Warren "Thundercat" wrote in message ... On Fri, 8 Oct 2004 14:41:53 -0400, "Christopher P.

Lol 10 pounder? I said it was BIG lol.
We always fish there in the spring when the bass are "up". This could be a very tough early-fall tournament. Warren -- http://www.warrenwolk.com/ http://www.tri-statebassmasters.com 2004 NJ B.A.S.S.
