Try and keep up on current events before posting.

I would hope for a format that could be considered a success with fields of 50 boats or more per tournament. If they needed to draw 80, 100, or more boats to call the experience a success - I fear it would be a short-lived splash in the pan and then gone again.

I also thought the league was finally grown up to have the field sizes it wanted, and then it was dropped. It takes some time to build a following, hopefully if it comes back there is a committment for a long enough period of time to allow it so succeed, 3-5 years.

Never fished it, but was just giving it a real serious consideration when it was dropped. The couple of years before that I had to rule out because my boat has more than 250 hp. Dropping that rule had me looking at it really hard.

I would fish a MN league or possibly a combination MN and WI league. I know I could fish a lot more events if they were held on a Sunday, so I could have a day to prefish without taking time off of work.

I'm in if they come back.

I'm in if it comes back to MN/WI.

I think the amount of angler support for the league is very strong and that they could experience close to full fields again if they were to return.

Sunday tournaments would be very accommoding for the weekend warriors as well.

I too fished the League when it was here in Mich. It was a good deal, and an excellent stepping-stone to the senior circuit. I would do it again. RFHT bill

Minn and Wisc. had the best #s 70-100 boats per tournament . I think it might be down some but it all depends on locations, format, entry fees and payout. I would think $10k would be good but what would 2nd take and so on. With that kind of money a 2 day tournament would be nice.
I did them for 5 years and would do them again.

If they come back, what would you guys like to see?

CRR format?
Team/co format?
Divisions, East/West or Wisconsic/Minnesota?
List of 8 events and pick your best finishes out of the list of tournaments (What MWC is doing this year)? Top "X" number go to League Championship
Chance to go to Tour Championship?
How much for an entry fee? (remember, this number is directly tied to winners purse)
1 or 2 day events

Anything else you want to see?

Sure wish they would start one here in NY.

CCR Format = yes
Team/co = either
Divisions = East/West, not just individual states. Spread them out in different states
I say 8 events spread out and $400 entry fees can pay $10,000 for first and then down to tenth with 60 teams.
1 day event.

Just my thoughts.
