Chad it is not an insult. You perceive it as an insult because you don't like Hangler, simple as that, it's plain to see.

In addition you obviously didn't read what I was referring to where you state that most people treat this as a fun event in regards to the casting section. Do you take the casting section of the NZACA nats as seriously and competitively as the fishing section of the NZACA nats?

This was what Hangler appears to be referring to when he made his comment about "fun". i.e someone who takes the casting as seriously as you take the fishing should be running the casting.

Seriously for someone that is supposedly open to feedback and ideas you have a strange way of showing it.

Do yourself a favour and lighten up, don't take every sentence with your name in it as a personal insult, quite frankly it is childish and devalues what you are trying to achieve.
