I would love to see a fishers of men circut come back to the area. I am looking for another Bass club to join and I would love to be a member of fishers of men.. How much interest is there out there?
It was too pricey for me, but then again I am THE biggest Hollander here. Oh boy, I just set myself up.....

My name is John Carter, I am the former Director of the Fishers of Men (Michigan East division). I scrapped my division after four seasons of struggling to get a decent field of anglers.
I believe that there are a number of reasons why FOM didn't work out well here, but we could go back and forth on that subject for days. The bottom line is that a Tourney trail is expensive to run, and without good participation, it just doesn't work. On top of that, I was spending all summer away from my family. Then, the straw that broke the camel's back, was that a promotion at work, has consumed all of my time for the past year. In fact, I used to be a regular on this board, and these days I rarely have time to read anything, let alone Bass Fishing Forums.
I really miss the trail. I love Bass fishing and I love sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ, so FOM was awesome. I now spend what little free time I have helping out at my local church: www.metrosouthchurch.com (http://www.metrosouthchurch.com) If anyone else where interested in applying to FOM to be a director, I would be happy to help them in any way that I could, but I couldn't start it back up if I wanted to.
See you all on the water...SOON!!!!
