Hey,

There are a stack of comps on the east coast, you could fish one most weekends if you wants to travel a bit.

In 5 years, who knows. Maybe a shared weight system similar to the states? I think this would really make a impact to the scene and see boaters and non boaters fishing like a team and draw plenty of interest.

I try to fish 4 or 5 ABT events and maybe 6 teams events and really enjoy both.

Would love to hear opinions on shared weight as a concept for ABT events.

Cheers,

the shared weight was already tried with ABT and by all reports wasn't well liked.

Personally, in five years, I think, the tournament scene will be more or less exactly where it is. We don't have the population to support the sport which, in-turn, means we will never have the sponsorship dollars to support the anglers.

Negative I know........but it's the way it is.

As a social and "hobby" style event it will always be successful, but as a professional option for anglers....no chance.

And as far as a bigger kayak series and a junior series...the same again, it will never be popular enough for sponsors to be interested.

Hope I'm wrong.

Phil
