FYI-the lake has come up more than four foot since the storm and appears to still be on the rise. call and check with rocky creek marina at 8173462199 before heading out to see if the tournament will be held.

just talked to the marina, they plan to have the tournament. need atleast 3 boats.
come on out and fish! dont let the wind scare you off. mother nature has caused the past 3-4 of these tournies to get canceled and its time to get this thing going again. we had a great turn out going until the spring storms started.
fishing time is 6:30-10pm, rocky creek marina is the place.
If anyone is going to fish the Hendrix rod open on the 31th of may, this should be a good way to practice. It looks like this thursday maybe the best weather we have had in a long while. (holding my breath)
I really would like to see a good turn-out before it gets too hot!
B Bass Cat, I am going to try and make it to see how these things work. I will put in across the lake. Is there a place to pull up on the bank at Rocky Creek? Thanks Allen

I was just told that Bill Wilcox is fishing the tournament out of rocky creek marina tonight, as well as some others who are practicing for the hendrix rods open. we are fishing from 6:30-10pm. $20.00 per boat, $5.00 per person for big bass. everyone in the boat must be in on big bass. The lake has been producing good sacks the past couple of weeks.

only 3 boats came, one of those boats was able to catch about 8 pounds, the other 2 blanked. i found out that the grande bass baby rattle snake is a great bait-for drum. caught them all evening.
