I know that I am still overseas working way to much for a vote in this. nobody will come out at all from the northern club if yall join the southern club. It seems that they are skeered to go north of Jordan for some reason, lol lol. That would be a huge haul for you northern guys especially since you say east to west is huge driving distance. If it were me I would take those who have shown up consistently and let them pick 75% of the lakes to fish. The other 3 lakes do a poll on here, and maybe have a classic with a minimum attendance in order to participate. You could take a percentage from each tournament to be used in the classic. This might encourage guys to show up more if they know they have a chance for some good money in the classic at the end of year.
