Alright Folks got a question for you

What kind of Prizes and Door Prizes do fishermen want to win when it comes to Benefit Tournaments?

Now I'm not talking about Raffle Prizes or Door Prizes our Operation Comfort Benefit Tournament is all about making sure our Anglers walk away happy with a chance to win a Prize or Door Prize if they finish outside of the Payout Places.

We will have over $10,000 in Cash and Prizes not to include the Payout Places based on turnout.

Also what is ONE big item Fishermen want to see for a Raffle Prize? This is a a 501c3 Organization that supports our Wounded Soldiers while they recover in the hospital so we do want to be able to raise some serious funds for them.

$5,000 1st Place Guarantee $500 Big Bass plus we already have 26 Wounded Soldiers / Veterans in volunteer boats plus it's an Open Team Format Tournament.. So everyone come on out Sept 10th to Lake Palestine. Check out the tournament information in the tournament section of the Forum.

A new Ultrex trolling motor would be cool.

Wow that's very awesome of you. I will give you a call this morning... Operation Comfort will provide you with a Tax Deduction Letter for your contribution and we can run company logo on the tournament banners and announce yalls company when the prize is given out. Very much appreciate your generosity I can assure you our Wounded Soldiers deserve this kind of support as I was once Wounded myself and Operation Comfort does so much for them during these trying times.

Guided trips was a HUGE hit at our recent Kayak Charity tournament. 4 of the best kayak anglers donated full day trips to learn the ins and outs.

Oh, and custom rods designed for the winner after meeting with the builder. That was a cool one.

First cast on your spot at 630am
Last cast at 2pm
In line and check in at tracker boating center of Tyler by 3pm for weigh in

Which means trailer to whatever launch you want first cast at 630

Fishers of men is a Christian based fishing trail and running our tournament and we feel that the honor system and unique layout of this years tournament with a offsite weigh in warrants a trailering event giving people proper time for fishing and safety to those who've not fished lake Palestine before that want to fish certain parts of the lake without the dangers of boating in unfamiliar waters.

Of course polygraph is always an option if warranted. But this is a benefit tournament for our wounded soldiers so hopefully people honor the rules and unspoken sportsmanship of tournament fishing.
