Jimmy: If you new how the clubs workied you probably wouldn't have made that post. Clubs are for FUN. They are not yet another tiournament series. They are intended to teach less experienced anglers to become better anglers and offer non-boaters a chance to go fishing more often. The tournament foremat is to increase the FUN factor. Most organizations (I belong to two) allow members from affiliated clubs to join their tournaments so there really isn't an issure with too many clubs. In fact, there are joint club tournaments organized on a regular basis. Club tournaments are for FUN, if you're doing clubbies for the money I would suggest you don't join.
