Our intentions are to make this a positive event for all. (We hope that all who fish will have a positive experience and fish with us next year), however, it would only take one intoxicated person, who can't control themselves, to cause problems or act inappropriately and leave a bad impression with other contestants, our sponsors, and the Fish and Game.
There are bars in town that are our sponsors and we hope you would feel free to support them (if you wish) while you are in town.
I have been fishing in Tournaments for several years, and there are no professional fishing organizations that allow alcohol during competition hours for these exact reasons.
