Like most we are disappointed, but understand that BC feels the need to cancel. I was hoping they might do a smaller one day event,less prizes, maybe auction a boat for a charitable donation to help people affected by recent disasters, while giving those that can participate a chance to help out. As a BC owners its not about winning a boat ( we already are owners or we wouldnt be fishing the OI) but about the tradition, the preparation, the family fun! We would be interested in participating in a resort or individual organized tourney…..please keep us posted! Good luck fishing!
