Thanks George,
Yeah, the only reason the ones on the river had a poor turn-out was because BASS wouldn't listen to us last year when we requested to have only a River circuit or a Lake circuit, but don't mix the two up. Obviously they didn't listen and thought it would be a good idea to mix it up and well---you saw the results. I was pushing them hard to have a river only circuit back in 2005 when I fished the KY/Tenn. Division. If you look back to the Hoosier Division or look at the Plapps River only circuit, it would show you how many fishermen from the Louisville area to the Cincy Area are interested in fishing this river. Might not be as good as some fisheries, but it's about all we have here close.
Anyways, I too hope they keep it on a Sunday---fridays are real hard for the weekly 8-5 M-F worker to deal with by being off for those tournaments and the other ones we like to fish like the BFL's and the KY Bass Federation Nations circuit.
I am seriously hoping that ABA will look at having more on the Ohio River. I fear that the "Bluegrass Division of 2006" will move to Cumberland,Dale Hollow and Douglas and Cherokee Lakes in Eastern Tenn. Oh well----we'll wait and see.
