Wasn't too long ago that an FLW angler was killed by lightening in a flash Florida storm that came and left quickly. I would say it is better to err in the side of caution. Not to mention the logistics including weigh in and spectators if things stayed bad. Better to call and it and move the day back

Regardless of conditions, you still have to best everyone else to come in first place.  So I don't know why they would have to put anyone's life at risk just so the show can go on.  That's just stupid and irresponsible.  Good ethics have to begin with the organization.

All of this complaining....how does the decision effect YOU? Unless you're in this event, it doesn't. Quit crying! So they pushed it back a day. Is it really that big of a deal?!

I wonder what the liability is if a marshall is killed in a boating incident caused by poor weather?

I fished a tournament in the 80's, that had severe weather, and lightning.  It was a scarey day, and the fish were

definitely shut off.  It was early spring we were all wet and cold.  One of the tournament members got hit by

lightning, having the rod knocked from his hand.  He was uninjured, picked up the rod and kept fishing.  He won

the tournament, but it could have been tragic.  I will never enter another tournament where conditions are

forecast like that.
