Well you may be right on the participation side of things, although I know there are many bass fishing anglers around here. Might just be a case of getting the word out. Could be kind of slow starting out. I haven't heard from the folks out in the Valley (North Kern Float Tubers) for awhile, I am sure there are a few out there that would be interested.
As for T.D.,well! I know of one that would be honored to take the job :)
