    as he should… His job is to buy the permit, find sponsors, contact the host city, organize the meeting and tourny.. He did his part.
    Its the anglers job to bring in the best basket
    Its that simple.

    Money was split up after the Tourney Director took his 20%. He didn’t go away empty handed, he got paid.

    Should be thrilled as hell to get anything back after a day with an empty live well!

    Bass Division should have been cancelled considering you couldn’t get south of Pepin. Should of been thrilled as hell to get back something after catching nothing, really? So you think the TD should get to keep that money? ha ha ha. You people.

    lol.. 15 miles of fishable waters beats not fishing at all (plenty of room for 12 boats).
    Cancelling because you cant get across pepin would be like cancelling because erie is muddy or its snowing at LOW.
    Money could have been raffled or stuck in championship purse or split up after expenses ect.. Its the directors decision and no matter which way he goes someone will be unhappy.

    It was handled correctly. The director got the same cut with or without fish, as he should get paid for his time.

    I don’t see what the big issue is.

    That’s what I’m trying to say, it was handled correctly.

    What exactly am I wrong about? You think TD should keep all money if no bass are caught in a tournament?

    In a fishing tournament, regardless if you catch fish or not, you are required to payout the prize money. If nobody catches a legal fish, you have to distribute that money out to all participates. TD does not get to keep that money, it’s the anglers money. I don’t think this is looking for recourse, it’s the only way to handle this situation.

    I had to go back and read your post.

    I think the guys thought you were saying ALL the money should have been distributed to the anglers.

    What you said was, the ANGLERS portion should be distributed as it’s their money. The TD keeps his portion for permits/insurance/expenses/ect.

    Bottom line is he followed the rules. How can there be a disagreement?

    I think we’re on the same page.

    I believe we are on the same page as well. Yes, the TD takes his 20% cut in this case and the remaining 80% gets distributed to the bass anglers. I was a bit confused why people were fighting me on this.
