I, for one, would like to see the size and frequency of tounaments regulated.

I agree, most of the people that have a problem with "fisheaters" are tourny fishermen (probably not the majority of fishermen as a whole). By the same token, I know alot of casual fishermen that have a problem with tourny fishermen. As long as it is within the law, there is nothing wrong with it. I don't bass fish -never have (probably won't start anytime soon) BUT, my family loves to eat fish & I don't care one bit to bring them home and clean them. I don't break the law, but we DO eat alot of fish.
