I was just reading the FLW tour schedule announcement and rule changes...The way I read it they are stating that no Tournament angler can recieve information from anyone but another tourney angler for "all" of 2008.
There is no mention of "after the priority deadline". Am I reading this wrong.
The new off-limits, adopted at the request of FLW Tour anglers, will precede an official practice period that starts the Saturday prior to each tournament and extends through Tuesday of the tournament week. Registration for each event will be held on a Wednesday and no competitors will be allowed on tournament waters that day. Competition will run Thursday through Sunday, with the FLW Tour's traditional top-10 cut taking place following Friday's weigh-in. The heaviest cumulative weight from Saturday and Sunday will determine the winning pro as in 2007.
In addition to the off-limits period, FLW Tour anglers may not solicit or receive fishing information from anyone except for confirmed tournament anglers in 2008. Anglers who make the top-10 cut may not solicit or receive fishing information from anyone except for other top-10 anglers. During practice, pro anglers may fish only with other confirmed tournament anglers, immediate family members, approved sponsor representatives or approved media representatives.
