The 58th Annual Rio Vista Bass Festival is being held this weekend. Ocotber 14, 15, & 16. All kinds of family fun and of course BASS! Anyone ditching the fly rod for this competition? Enjoy! Thom

Not tryin' to pee on anybodys fun here ...

Instead of Bass Festival , it should be called Dead Striper derby .

What with water exports going up , pollution , no slot limit , etc ... I think catching the largest , least healthy to eat , most egg producing Stripes and killing them isn't in the best interest of 'family fun' .

Please send hate mail to my private message box .

After reading through their site, I'm afraid I'll have to agree with you David. It's looks like there are a few good things going on besides the fishing contest though. I guess people will have to decide if they want to go to this or not based on what you pointed out.

Hi Gregg!

I never suggested not going , just that it's a catch and kill derby . By all means , go to it .... and carry your beautiful photos of Stripes with you . Show them off , and suggest/preach/hint at Catch and release .

I wouldn't mind going , but I'm taking BOARD SAVAGES fishing Sunday :twisted:

Report to follow Sunday night :!:
