New federal regulations to affect bass tournaments???

Thats my take on the whole deal too. There is plenty of Michigan water to fish on both the river and in St.Clair. Having a 17' I've had to learn water I could get to safely and have held my own with the guy's that ran the whole lake. Just my take on the situation.

Here is an article I read this past week on a walleye tournament on the river.  By the way the article reads, it seems that they killed the walleye prior to returning to US waters (nice 'eyes too).  I think you will see this more and more if the law stays the way it is or unless tourneys limit it to US waters.  The angler's also make a good point in the article  - the fish can still swim from US to Canadian waters.

That is sick.  I cant believe any organization would allow you to kill a fish on purpose.
