[QUOTE="MarbleEyez, post: 311021, member: 1292"] Take the NWT away from the communities of Garrison. These guys usually pre-fish for a minimum of a week. And with that they have other guys who come out and fish in sperate boats, either friends or locals. There was 123 Pro's in the NWT up at Garrison in Sept. Take a week of that "economic impact" from Garrison and you're talking about a good amount of money taken away. Say only 50% stay in Garrison. That's 61 pro's, so lets say 61 boats and 122 people (2 people/boat). Hotel Room is $60/night ($30/person) Gas is $75-$100/day Food is $30-$50/day/person The amount spent within the community would be $13,055-14,640/day, using 50% of the tournament entries. Take that times 7 days of these guys pre-fishing. [B]$14,000 X 7days = $98,000 [/B]It's up to everyone to come to their own conclusion if they think $98,000 less spent in the rural community of Garrison would have an impact on the local businesses.
