Mark, You are correct, this is nothing new. You always no your facts. The KBF has 1500 members, but how many fish KBF tournaments? Isn't it more like 400 maybe? The reason IMHO is the club insurance as well as the life insurance each member has. This is one of the biggest benifits that the KBF has to offer. You are also correct there is no way the federation nation is going to come into Kentucky or any other state and come up with equal or greater numbers then the federations have now. There are not enough anglers to go around. BASS has too many things going on, the weekend series IMO was to compete with the federations and now this federation nation. Something has got to give. Just try to set up a club schedule, there is something on just about every weekend.
Too many tournaments not enough time.
Hope too see you on the water.
