    Not really true…a few of the top boats, to include the top boat, in the SC Govs Cup are run by guys who have worked their way up from the bottom and have put in the time.

    Predator boated at 10:38, and said they wouldnt be back till 4.

    I imagine that is a miserable ride!

    If there are only 3 tiers where does a Hatteras fit?

    When did this whole "program" thing come about? What happened to just fishing- now its all about what program you are part of pr who you know on said program.

    There are owners that fish 6 times a year and then there are owners who are truly committed to fishing. The ones truly committed to fishing have what is known as "programs".

    I think when you consider the size and price of some of these boats and then add in a crew/team plus a captain. It becomes more than just fishing. Being a Capt of a multi million dollar boat is about like being the manager of a thousand acre plus plantation. And I speak from experience when I say managing a thousand acre plus plantation ain’t just farming!

    Program takes the team to DR, Costa Rica, Mag Bay, etc etc.

    Fishing is fun either way but there are some teams who are there expecting to win, others are just hoping to win.

    That's what makes it fun is that you never know who will make it happen. It only takes the right bite to make it happen.

    The last program I was involved with spent close to $50,000/ mo. That was almost 10 years ago up until 2021. Youre talking about dockage, fuel, parts, salarys, tackle, bait, etc. Not to mention travel expenses, condo rentals, plane tickets, and all of the scheduling that goes along with it.

    The 50k does not include tournament entry. To go across the board at the White Marlin Open, youre at over 100k.

    Program, or operation is the word to describe this.

    Go to Fresh Market.
    It's not enough to simply tolerate the 2nd Amendment as an antiquated inconvenience. Caring for the 2nd Amendment means fighting to restore long lost rights.

    I noticed that earlier too. Last 2 days I'm pretty sure it worked. Or at least from the Hook-Up page it did.

    EDIT: You have to go to the Big Rock tab at the top. Who's Fishing and Lay Days tab links to the bios.

    It was live. Cap was about to bounce off the dock that they didn't get into the top 3 money. He would not be interviewed. Owner (from Columbia) was as happy as if he had won the whole thing. Guess who made the call to kill it?
