Mlf Format Will Be Available For Local Tournaments

[A-Jay]

Made-for-TV fishing is on track to become made-for-local-clubs fishing as Tulsa-based Major League Fishing prepares to roll out its newest television series for 2014 as well as an Internet-based program designed to allow local clubs to use the same real-time scoring and live leaderboard system used by the MLF pros.

I had the idea of doing this for our local club. As long as we had the same scales, we could use a group text to update weights. This would be tons of fun!

I think this is only the beginning.

 

I can see in the not too distant future State or even Nation wide tournaments / contests being held.

 

The options and possibilities are broadening as the technologies improve and expand.

On a small club level, with money on the line, I don't see anything other than live weigh ever being 100% replaced.

I have a ton of league members who don't even use the internet or e-mail let alone a phone app for live scoring.  Not to mention the cost of the same scale for each boat.

 

My small club will be very slow to transition to this format.  

 

I personally would love it!
