Wow, you guys are really going overboard with the reactions here.

The purpose of rec.outdoors.fishing.tournaments is to discuss all aspects
of tournament fishing. NOT JUST BASS!
There is no proposal or idea to combine the newsgroups in any way.

Tournament fishing is very different from recreational fishing. Just like a
football newsgroup there would be discussion of the pro's themselves as
well as methods, tournament trails and such. It would even include
discussion of fantasy fishing leagues such as that sponsored by ESPN.

What the problem w/ putting the tournament chatter in this group? Does
there need to be another one? There already is touranment chatter in
this one.

Am I missing something?


Evidently he doesn't like the fact that we're a bunch of friends here and
want to share our fishing experiences with others. I guess that unless
you're fishing for money, you're not REALLY fishing!
