OK, Who's planning on fishing the tourney? This looks like it is going to be a good one..

I'm in, My brother & I will be fishing & Richard Pickens will be fishing also.

STEVE AND I WILL BE THERE...

NOOOOOOOO! Well, there goes 1st place! We will have to try and go for 2nd place now. Is Tommy going to fish it?

Big Sam said he would be here but that was when I talked to him at the NTTC tournament on TWOK earlier this year.

I'm going to donate

Micky and Steve will have to settle for 2nd, Clark and I will be fishing this one.

good luck Jered , is Brent fishing his one?

Hey it isn't that funny, they can be beaten, just got to think positive going into it. Brent said he would fish if his boat was out of the shop.

Besides, that cold weather fishing is over, makes the playing field a little more equal.

Jered,
Guess I haven't been thinking positive enough to beat Petree & Nelson. This should be a nice change for you & Brent - let someone else do all the tournament work. Hope you guys do good.

Is the North Texas Trophy Cats Group having a get together the night before?

Looks like Joey and I will get to fish this together.

Our goal is just to catch 5 fish...

i am not aware of a north texas trophy cats gathering for this one. just gonna be a show up and fish tourney. ed and I will be out Friday looking for some fish. Jered, I will call you that day. should be a fun tourney. weights will be down from Feb tourney, but maybe some big fish will still be found.

Yeah, no gathering that I know of.

Sounds good Joe, I will give you a call either tuesday or wednesday also.

Good luck to everyone.

Now that my boat is finally here I gotta see if Brent wants to fish the tourny. What say ye Brent?!

HOLY COW!!!! You're boat is finally here!!! Better get some hours on the motor if you want to fish TWOK in it or you'll be putting around everywhere you go tournament day.

Hope to start breaking it in tomorrow. Brent was up there helping get it ready today.

Just so you guys know, I just called in and pre-registered (paid my dues) and she said I was "Boat #9" which means there is not alot of people fishing the tournament or like she said..."we are anticipating on several boats registering Friday night."

See you guys there!

looking forward to meeting some of you guys
