I'm a member of CBAF...we started our chapter last year out of Whitby. As far as tournies go..you could probly fish a tourny a week if you wanted too...most of the tournies are on one day of the weekend. The benefit of CBAF as i can see is that once you join the federation, you are able to fish any of the chapters tournies. Its also a great way to meet some good people and perhaps your first partner!..If you have any questions drop me a PM.
