All kidding aside, maybe if you guys lowered the entry fee/price that would increase the attendance numbers? While the idea and thought behind the $100 tourneys (two scheduled) was to benefit MAFF members overall was made with sincerely good intentions, it's still a hefty price tag to freshwater fish for a day. Our members are very good and there have never been issues raising money for end of year events or any get togethers before WITHOUT having to hold $100 events. All the participating members will rally and the end of the season event will be a good time as always, regardless.
Just a thought and either way I can't make it so it effects me in no way, shape or form. I do know that I wouldn't pay that price though even if I were available, but that's just me (although I can't imagine I'm the only one thinking that?).
Good luck either way boys and I do hope this tourney fills up for you, whatever price the entry fee is!
We all know that the $100 price tag is a bargain, to get the chance to fish on the same body of water as Rich! That goes without saying.

The entry fee was one of the reasons I cancelled, the other half was I would have been gone all day between the distance I would have to drive and the 3pm weigh in time. Not that I really care to much about the distance and weigh in time but my wife is flying back in saturday night and she would have most likely murdered me in my sleep if I made plans to go, and the last thing I would want to happen in be a no-show lol.
