FLW-Bottom Line
FLW has more boaters then co-anglers, that's it . I've seen dozens of co-anglers that should fish on the boater side based on fishing ability but they choose not to, plus some of them bring their own boats to pre-fish anyway. Based on my conversation with FLW, they are trying to place everyone, base...

Re: I dont get it FLW...
As Ricky said, talk to the TD, FLW have always helped me out. Let them know your deal and they will help. I've gone as far as paying for a tournament followed by a family emergency and FLW SAYING "would you like your money back or do you want to roll it over to the the next event".

Re: I dont get it FLW...
I've fished a few FLW Tournaments, and they usually make their pairings. I know 7 or 8 boaters that live around Shasta Lake that haven't registered, myself included. My big deal is making sure my boss lets me off for the week.

Iv'e noticed the diff. between the heavier power pro vs the smaller, the smaller stuff; 20lb does foul, maybe I'll try 65 to 80.
In reality its a reaction bite for the most part so 20 to 65 or 80 should'nt bother the green fish. Back in the day; I would normally through 12 to 15 lb mono.
