    Last year they used the one that is about midlake across from the plant, not the one at the dam. I was on the water that day and watched them come in when the championship was completed. I think there are only 2 on the whole lake. I am sure someone will be along and corrrect me if this is not right.

    Just remember this which is their own statement:Attendance at the event is limited to competing anglers, essential staff and media covering the event only. Fans are encouraged to follow the event online through the MLF NOW! livestream and ScoreTracker coverage at MajorLeagueFishing.com.

    Meaning what? They're going to prevent other people from using that ramp?

    I would not think so either. I think back in 2019 the number on boats/competitors was double what it was this year the first 4 days. But you never know. Doubt seriously they would close off ramp to the public.

    Went by ramp today when they loaded up. Probably only half dozen people that wasn't affiliated with MLF

    Because it's boring and stupid to watch other people fish. Won't be long before the sponsors figure that out too.

    You only feel that way because you already know everything you need to know. All of these young beginning anglers find it fascinating and educational to watch pros fish, catching or not. And of course these young guys will be the ones spending the bulk of the money in the next few years. I think the sponsors have already figured that out. Lol

    With the reliance upon electronics so dominating, watching pro fishermen is akin to watching pro gamers...

    This sport is like any other sport. If you don't like watching them fish. Turn the channel. Just that simple!!

    Exactly!! If you don't like it, go watch Juwanna Mann in the WNBA.

    I think it just means they won't have any "official" support for spectators.

    I was at Farrington the other day when they took out. A few other folks there watching, no issues and no one saying no fans or anything. Was near Boyd Duckett's boat in the parking lot and he was talking with a couple folks. A few of the others were doing the same.
