What's LFW stand for?? Do they have a website?

[MarkW]

FLW---actually stands for Forrest L. Wood of Ranger boats. But, the FLW website is www.flwoutdoors.com

Thanks Rodney, I appreciate the help.

MarkW, no real big deal about belonging to FLW, unless it would boil down to a philosophical thing.

For instance, I wanted to fish a fed. club, but not be mandated to re-up for my BASS membership. Of course this was before the split. My beef was that I don't fish the federation tournaments to try to make the classic, and since I really don't like the direction that BASS has taken, I just don't want to continue to support them. Even the magazine is turning into a huge advertisement, articles included.

I even suggested some compromises, such as agreeing either to not fish federation tournaments, or fishing but not being able to qualify for the state team. I also proposed in the suggestion that I would happily pay my state federation fees, as I wish to support them, just not BASS.

Philosophically, I do not like the mandate that we must join FLW, even though I am considering doing so to fish BFLs if I can, and don't sell my boat. The biggest hang up is the money to pay entry fees. Kind of working on a powerpoint for a company that may cover that.

If I fish a federation club, I fully expect and happily plan to support our state federation. It's the national organizations that I'm not that into supporting because of some mandate that takes the decision out of my hands.
