This is a interesting attempt to try to get anglers to fish events without the help of “network friends” or outside sources. I would love to see the walleye tournaments take this approach as well for the future. I think it would definately separate a good portion of the field of anglers and bring new talent forward.
Enforcing it would be a task in itself, but if they (BASS)are willing to take big steps in disciplinary actions it could be worth the effort. We will see how this pans out. I think its a great idea however!
