REQUEST FOR DISCUSSION (RFD)
unmoderated group rec.outdoors.bassfishing.tournaments

My personal opinion, and others may differ, is that I think that a
tournaments-based group like this has little place in the "rec" hierarchy.
There's little recreational about tournament bass fishing.

Really? My dad does whatever tourney shows up in either Lake
Erie or Lake Ontario and he does them all for fun.

It would be more appropriate in the alt hierarchy, and there's an
alt.fishing precedent.

That would be up to the proponent. News.groups dscusses RFDs
for the Big-8 not alt.*.
