Did we change the date so this doesn't clash with CBA yet?

I normally refrain from commenting as I don't get to fish the trail due to my employment commitment, which requires long 12 hour weekend hospital shifts, but looking at this makes me think you should rename the CFF Tour to the CFF Crybaby Snowflake Tournament Trail. Geez people. From what I have read, and what I know through acquaintances, is that:

The same whiners are always whining. This seems to always be true. Those complaining are the very ones who would not dare work on the tournament trail because it would require some effort, and open them up to the same bitching that they are experts at.

The primary problem I see is that this seems to be the most ungrateful bunch I have ever witnessed. What the tournament committee does is give you a chance to fish. Like a bunch of menstruating women (that means on their period for those north of the river).

With that said, I will just leave this right here...and head to Weiss for a little fishing...

I think Jmax needs that, he's the biggest whiner of the bunch and never contributes anything to this forum. He's nothing but a keyboard warrior who should be put in his place by one of you guys at the next CFF tx, it will be a month or so before I can make it to one or I'd do it myself.

Yea, your right, never have been an officer, never have put on tournaments, never post, don't participate and all I ever do is whine. I just wait for rules to be changed from one year to the next to suit a few and jump all over it when I make plans to fish a CFF and the rules are changed along with the dates so I cannot. I live for that moment. emoBigsmile Jmax

Gas is as cheap as it has been in a while so I don't think the excuse that it cost too much to fish other lakes will fly. The CFF trail has turned into a practice run for the CBA

And the beat goes on and the beat goes on emoParty emoLaugh emoEvil

:emoticon: Yea, I am tired of talking about it too. It is what it is and if you don't like it enough there are plenty of other tournaments to fish. emoRolleyes or you can run for the committee next year. emoTongue Jmax

Not really! There are very few of us that fish the CBA and CFF tournaments, look back at the last two years, how many CFF tournaments were won by someone who fishes the CBA maybe 3 or 4 at most out of 20 tournaments?

I still think Sundays for day tx's make the most sense. Guys could fish release areas on any lake, no other tournaments, and everyone could still make it home shortly after 2p for mama's ham, lol. Sat could be wisely used for cutting grass washing the car and hitting bass pro, lol. And then, everyone could fish both cba and cff etc.

Or Sunday

Was just going to say- There's also a day called "Sunday", for times of scheduling troubles. Can always say a prayer on the water- if that is the issue.

I think that with the expansion of the sport- H School, College, and just in general, More changes will be made in the future and we should all prepare for sudden conjestion. If we don't decimate the bass population 1st.

I have to put my 2 cents in here and I am sincere when I say that I do not want to step on any toes. I am a Christian and without apology I follow Jesus who in my opinion is the Christ - the only way to eternal rest with God the Father. I also respect anyone who wants to believe different or not believe at all. It is your choice and I'd like to point out that true Christianity does not force others to believe or conform the way some religions do. I mean if you don't see it their way they feel justified to cut your head off. A true follower of Jesus loves his fellow man and only wants good for others. With that said if the CFF had regular tournaments on Sunday I would not participate. Sunday is my day of worship and rest to spend time with my family as much as possible. The only time I have ever made an exception is to fish our Sunday classic day and that is one time each year. I know that some say they can have church on the front of their bass boat or on the golf course or in the deer stand and just have church, just God and them. If you feel that way then who am I to judge you and yes many times I am on the water and stand in awe of God's creation, we are to praise Him in all we do. I will say the scriptures admonish us not to forsake assembling together so gathering in one place to worship and fellowship on a regular basis is important so if you want to not attend church on Sunday then please attend another day, we gain strength from being together and we need the spiritual "food" that comes from hearing God's word preached and taught. Now there are many who have no faith, who don't understand what having a relationship with God is all about, all believers were in that same condition at one time - without Jesus. To you I encourage you to have an open mind and to seek God. Anyone who seeks the Lord sincerely will find Him and be forever changed emoAngel . There are many cases of agnostics who decided to research the Bible to disprove the existence of God and more specifically Jesus Christ. Many of those unbelievers came away from that study accepting Christ and converting. There is more evidence of the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus than many historical figures which we just accept as truth. I know it is true, not because of "organized" religion but because of the relationship I have with my Lord. He has never failed me--- family will, friends will but I testify that since I trusted Jesus - He has never, not one time failed me. I fail Him so many times but He cannot fail.

Bottom line is I have to be honest and express my feelings. At the same time I would not fall out with or think less of anyone who chooses to fish a bass tournament on Sunday. We are all adults and we all have choices to make. Thanks for reading, hopefully with an open mind, anyone who knows me knows I am far from perfect, God is working on me every day and for that I thank Him for his patience. I am so thankful that I don't get what I deserve (that's His mercy) and I do get what I don't deserve (that's His grace). emoThumbsup

Nice post. Very well said.

 

[FirstLight]

I can remember when i was growing up, it was absolutely unheard of to have a tournament on a Sunday. Things change I guess.

But I won't fish a tournament on a Sunday.
