Re: Gas Prices

We'll never see $4 gas again. Those days are long gone. It will be around $10 by Memorial Weekend and after the 4th of July it might go down to $8 and never below again. Mark my words.

Re: History of the TOC?

This is a great question. You are absolutely correct. Back in the late 90’s and early 2000’s it was a big deal to make a TOC. Yes they made it a special event. They had a great dinner, giveaways and such. Now days it’s just another tourney. You could fish for free and only fish to win or you could p...

Re: Dead Fish at Don Pedro

I wasn’t at the tourney but having that many dead fish is embarrassing. I’ve never seen or heard of this before. I can’t believe a tournament circuit would allow this. It’s unacceptable in my opinion. We have to do better as anglers and TD’s bottom line.
