Nice fish, nice rigs. Thought I was at a NASCAR event with all dressed in sponsorship gear. |
How do they get away with culling 10 25"+ trout when your only allowed 1 trout over 25" per day in your possesion according to state regs? |
Meaning they had a 25"plus in the well, caught a bigger one and released the smaller one... Several times over.

| Please know, before I start, I condemn no one - just an observation. Do the advertisements, in the form of sponsor logos seen on NASCAR and tournament angler shirts, ever inspire you to buy that particular product or brand? Gotta say, I don't even read them - I just laugh. But if they did, I think you would see the phenomenon spread to a host of other venues in business where pushing a specific brand would be profitable (maybe good for travel agents, restaurants, even Wal Mart or Costco employees). Decals on boats I get but I guess I don't understand why accomplished professionals allow their sponsors to dress them in strange outfits - I guess that's just me. But if the logos work, why not expand the opportunities and wear baggy pants and capes? Think of the logo surface area! |

| I'm like you and don't read logos. They must work. Boxers even have sponsors logos tattooed across their backs in bouts. |

I agree 100% with you Rusty. I do think it would be nice if our politicians were all required to wear their "sponsorships" on their shirts, though. At least we'd all know where there money is really coming from.

Said sponsors pay the entry, fuel and other expenses I would assume... |
