: To answer your question. Hatcher's Island is
: off limits, but the blue barrel pit is not.
: The pits have been a major concern for the
: last few years with our tournament trail and
: im not sure why. Some of you have fished
: Pro-am teams and other tournaments for many
: years and they had no off limits. You must
: understand that Hatcher's island has a
: permit to be blocked off. If you go in there
: you will get a ticket for trespasing. That
: is why we chose to make it off limits. The
: blue barrel pit is a whole different issue.
: Im not a fisherman so im not sure why
: everyone is making a major issue over
: whether its fished in or not. If you want it
: open to everyone take a picture of it
: blocked, send it to the corp of engineers
: and they will have it removed. But some of
: you are making it a Castaway Tournament
: Trail issue and i think that is crazy
: especially if you have fished Pro-am or any
: other tournament held on the river in the
: past. You guys can either stand around and
: watch every pit on that river be blocked off
: or do something about it. Unless in the
: future you would rather only have the option
: of fishing the main river. Maybe im wrong
: but i dont see how the blue barrel pit is
: going to save the fish population. Im not
: saying whether it is right or wrong to go in
: and fish. Bottom line,its a matter of law
: and that pit should be open!!!!! If those
: land owners want to call it their land then
: build a wall to where it doesn't flow with
: the tide and its theirs. If i offended
: anyone let me say now im sorry. Hope you
: guys enjoy Sat. The weather will be great.
: See you then.

Another set of pits that are blocked off are the ones in the back of chippokes. Are these pits suppose to be blocked? Thats a question I couldn't even get the game comission to answer for me.
