Sounds like jealousy to me...I'm no tourney fisherman, but if I were live bait would DEFINATLEY be on my agenda. I have nothing against fisherman who use plastics, I throw them on occasion. Why get mad about it? Catching your own bait and keeping it alive takes much more skill and patience than going to Academy and picking up a bag of plastics.

BTW The Biggest Trout Ive Ever Caught Was Caught On A Hybrid Flurry Tipped With Shrimp..haha wats that make me?

Hopefully

Hopefully this one will at least get two different divisions in tournaments!

the only reason i care is cause some people seem to think people who do use live bait from time to time are less of fisherman..

But I would love to see other events like we had this pass weekend ban live bait.....They said no wading but croaker soaking was good......JUST NOT RIGHT...

Well aren't tourneys for all fishermen good and bad?

Wow what a skill. At least, since you don't have any fish catching skills, you can always make mullet/pogie gumbo out of the bait you skillfully caught when you don't catch fish.

Haha...i don't have a care in my mind what anyone uses for bait to catch there fish. The two seperate tourney divisions sounds like a great idea! But believe me...I'm definatley not eating my bait; TROUT seem to LOVE it! Saturday Mornings catch....

I can't rag on that. I always keep a few small ones like that because my Mom loves to bake them in her toaster oven. She get's so excited when I bring her some little flounder like that.

I will say, I don't care what people use to fish with. It's the tournaments we are talking about. It's two totally different fishing methods. The trout masters tourny that came here a few years back did not allow live bait. I would like to see the Trout Shootout go the same way. Maybe start with two different divisions, live bait category and artificial category with more prize money going to artys. I would imagine more and more would start signing up for the artys due to more prize money and it could be phased out all together.

Disclaimer: This my opinion and my opinion only.

P.S. I don't think this thread is dumb.

I don't care what anybody fishes with on there time!! I think when a tournament is hosted Live bait should not be allowed!!!
I hear this..."Well use live bait then"...NO...I would fell like im cheating my self if I fish live bait in a tournament....Its self respect I have!!! I'm on the water 175 days year and know how,where,what and when to fish!!! Then i pay $100 bucks to get bet by Joe Blow on his 3rd trip to the lake by soaking a croaker at the jetties!!!! There is no pride in that IM SORRY.....I have been fishing to long!!!

This my opinon and just how I see it!!!!

I have never been in a tourney but was thinkin about tryin some this summer...after reading this they are not for me....the thought of live bait in a tourney never crossed my mind. I mean I have been known to croker soak every once in a while, especially in an area I don't know, but nothing is more satisfying than catching on artificial. I think of a tournament as a test of skill between a group of people and if you introduce live bait the only skill you need is being able to cast. So all these so called tournaments are really just large amounts of people betting against each other to see who can catch the biggest fish. Now if it is a fundraiser for a good cause such as the one Shad is trying to put together I'm in, but I think I will just stick to fishing for myself and leave these "tournaments" to you guys.
