For most bass fishermen in West Virginia, there was quite the speculation back a month ago when the DNR unveiled their new plan for tournament fishing in the state. They announced a new set of rules for tournament fishing that can be found here in an article we wrote about the changes.

The WVDNR is holding its Commission Meeting that is open to the public and bass fishermen to voice their opinions on rules changes and regulations.

Details about the meeting can be seen below or can be found here on the WVDNR website.

Each attendee that pre-registers at the meeting is given three minutes to speak at the meeting or stand up to say I agree with so and so.

I think it is super important that the tournament bass fishermen of West Virginia show up in the masses and show their displeasure with the rules changes that ultimately affect how tournaments are run in the state of West Virginia. This is the surefire way to gain the attention of the concerns on tournament bass fishing in the state and I invite anyone who can attend, to go attend the meeting and let your voice be heard.
