I'll see yall there. Never been on that lake

Sorry to say it, but the forecast is showing 90% chance of rain, temps in the 30's, and wind for Saturday. So we're gonna cancel it until further notice. Sorry guys.

Probably a good call. Are you planning on rescheduling at all?

Yes, reschedule is being considered.

Better to be safe than be out on the open lake with wind and rain.
Appreciate you guys for running the TXKAA/APT tournament series.
I have certainly enjoyed fishing with y'all.
Rick

Good call guys I have been on that lake in the wind no fun at all
