Also Craig, talks of boycott is counter productive to your goals and mine. I know that there have been several anglers who are members of Capitol City MI. who have left their memberships expire or are planning to do so because of the chapters stance against transport tournaments. Also, I use to attend your annual April seminar and spend hundreds on raffle tickets in support, however because of what I deem as shortsightedness on a part of a few, I can not in all good conscience continue with my support. The spring seminar has always been a great time for me and I found it easy to convince others to join me there. I hope in the future that your chapter will go out of its way to poll anglers who fish transports and listen to what they have to say instead of treating them with disdain.
Thanks and have a great season,

This is some classic stuff here. Craig don't you dare try to boycott the WMT, that's counterproductive to all of our (read Tom's) goals. He however holds the right to not attend (read boycott) the CCMI April seminar because of some higher moral authority??
To paraphrase the above quote, I would like to attend your annual WMT events and spend several hundred dollars in support, however because of what I deem shortsightedness by a few, I cannot, in all good conscience support these events....I hope in the future that the WMT will go out of its way to poll anglers who don't fish transport tournaments and listen to what they have to say instead of treating them with disdain. |
