Black Friday Tournament Canceled ? What the @#@$

[Westocgreg]

Well, I hear that the Black Friday torny has been canceled. This was held at the Fishing Center in OC. I hope this is not a pattern of things to come. The Ake's tournament is also canceled. That leaves the Rocktoberfest Oct 15-16 from Fish Tales and a new torny on Oct 29 in Ocean Pines. Come on guys I wait all year to fish for Rock and I participate in every tournament and now I guess because they can't make a killing (other then the Ake torny which is due to Dougs health I'm sure) they cancel. I see a general lack in interest throughout and even on this board which seems to only have watchers and not much in the way of posters. I hope things change for all our sake. I also hope to see you all out on the water this year as the Rock are just starting to roll in, if it's anything like last year I can feel my arm getting tired already.

Greg i'm not a tournament guy and very new to chasing rock from a boat but i am absolutely excited about getting out there for rockfish this fall. Don't know why tournaments were cancelled....is it a lack of fish? I guess relatively speaking there aren't a ton of folks who take the time to go out and troll the beaches in the cold.

Guess your right but I wait all year for these fish to roll in. Love the jig...not much on trolling though. Hope to see ya out there

I was planning on fishing it too. Didn't last year to deer hunt but was going to this year. I'll still be out there anyway.
