b8caster --

I have to plead ignorance with regard to any issues re: bass tourneys here in Pennsylvania. It's a different situation -- a big state, but not nearly as much good bass water (lake, anyway). Most of the tourneys (at least in this end - eastern) in the state are on the rivers (Delaware River has a lot of bass -- and even has shad all the way up to Trenton) or on the many man-made lakes (such as Raystown, that you mentioned) -- most notably Wallenpaupack to the north. Other than those, the "local" bass tournaments are mostly out of state -- NY, MD, from what I read. Pennsylvania is much more noted for its trout waters, whitetail hunting, and substantial black bear population. I've done some bass fishing down here on various rivers and ponds, but tend to do more trout fishing in PA and bass fishing in NH.
