I just thought it was interesting that Major League Fishing seems to have offered a compromise, at least for this tournament. FFS Ok the first day, but not the second. Wonder if other tournaments might follow suit.
I am being lazy here without wanting to look it up myself - but did the bag sizes change dramatically or was there a reduction in the number of fish caught if we compare day 1 to day 2? I understand that it could happen due to a variety of reasons. Just curious. |

| The leader on day 1 increased his lead on day 2, without FFS. On day three he secured the victory. The story at the top of the forum indicated that many of his close competitors dropped back on day 2. Story does not attribute that to lack of FFS, but seems to make sense. Winner did 26 lbs on day one, 21lbs on day 2.
Winner was quite blunt in saying how FFS has helped his results. But still, 21 pounds on a tough reservoir without it speaks to some skill.

If they saw consistent smaller bags from day to day, and the only significant change was the lack of FFS, that would be pretty d*mning evidence. |

| I don't think anyone needs evidence at this point. Common sense would tell you that you would catch less fish. People use it for a reason. |

"I don't think anyone needs evidence at this point" seems like something they said before the OJ trial.

| I'm guessing all the areas they found fish with FFS are marked on the GPS units. Would make for a good starting point for days without FFS. Horse if out of the barn, there is no going back now. Money wins again. |
