I think they took a big stab at it last year and while I commend them, it’s just hard to take seriously a tournament trail that has the term “dink fest” in its nomenclature. I kind of kid. It just seemed like the money wasn’t there. pretty obvious when your main sponsor is a bait and tackle store in appleton.
They aren’t even streaming on FB/YT this year. just on their site.
I didn’t have much of an issue with it. they ruffled some feathers punishing max wilson last year and the year before it was snag fest on the fox river but I’m not certain that was the reason they’ve had to kind of back off.
