I hope this doesn't get moved. I understand if it does. Guys I am deployed from Fort Hood right now and will not be back till the 1st part of Dec. I got an email requesting help with this tourney but I won't be home to make it. So I thought I could turn to my TFF family for help. I know its short notice but would hope some of you can make it. Details are as follows.

The money raised by this event will go to the victims of the shootings. The

families of Ft Hood. The food that is collected will go to the Food
Pantries that make up the food baskets during the holidays for the soldiers
and families on Ft Hood.

Thanks again guys hope you guys can help out.

Mike,
Sorry I can't. Live in Kansas, work Friday nights until 23:00. But can we send some money (100% that would go directly to the cause, not any going towards prize money). If so, let me know where to send it and what to put on the check. Thank you and your comrads for all that you do. My sympathy goes out to you and all the loved ones of the victims of Fort Hood. It has hurt all of us. I saw the memorial on TV the other day and my heart aches. Makes things like the price of gas, economy, job market, etc. seem so petty. You guys and gals keep safe over there.

I will be there.

I am sure that crankin'_dave will be fishing with me as well....

Thank you, I am sure dave will be too.

I cannot be there either.

If you could post an address to send a toy or two I would consider it an honor to do so.

Thank you,

Jack

if it was closer i would definatly be there, still a possibility of it but never been to that lake before and its about 300miles round trip, i wish you the best of luck on it and hope its a great turnout

Hello Mike, I hope you and family are alright.

I will try to be there if I can get away.

Hope to hear from you next month and stay safe.


David

David I will get with you when I get back for sure.

We'll be there for sure!!! for a GREAT cause!!

I am going to try and make plans to go down there.

C'mon fellas, let's help these families out with a good turnout or donations. I realize the tourney is short notice but try to make it if you can.

I will be in my Cobra 180. It is white with a red broken stripe on each side and a wide red stripe on the top cap. I will have my dog with me as well....he is an 80 lb. white shepherd/wolf mix so you can't miss him.
If any of you guys going see me and the dog give us a shout. I have only met one other TFFer out at the lake.


Oh, and crankin'_dave will with me too......he will be the beaner in the back with all the Longhorn stuff on.....

Even if you dont come, donate something to help these families please.

Aren't you supposed to be at work?

iam going to try and make it

I will be there! I am bringing the BSG trailer and tournament staging gear to assist with this event!

I got off really early today. Im headed to the Academy in Killeen if you need anything let me know. Scott, we'll(TXLargmmouth and I) are the one's that are gonna win it! All for a great cause, glad to see alot of ya'll are gonna try and make it out!

Wow, crankin'_dave, that's a bold prediction! I hope to fish too. Are any of the service men or women going to be present at the weigh in?

Yeah, that prediction was just a joke! I know there will be a lot of good anglers out there. I wouldnt be surprised if there would be a few soldiers fishing this as well.

Some of the good sticks are going to be on Stillhouse fishing the Tuff Man the same day.

I'll be there, glad to donate to a great cause!

How is the tourney looking, I am going down on Friday night and stay.

Anyone wanna give me some suggestions on where to stay that's close.

Rick,

The Shilo Inn on WS Young is nice if you want to spend the money, other than that there are a ton of Marriots and Hiltons that offer fair rates in town.

Is this a Draw tourney?


-Erik

ROLL TIDE!

Glad your coming down Rick. I am not sure where we are staying. I will be setting up the stage Friday late afternoon and since registration opens at 4:00am I may rack out at the ramp.

If anyone wants to fish this with me send me a message.I really want to fish and think it is for a great case. My tourney partner cant fish this but I want to. I have a boat but I have only been on Belton a few times. Thanks guys

If i have my boat by then you can count me IN!!!

Can you run that lake? Is it pretty open...

BaylorBassGuy PM sent

Im driving down early on Saturday to make it.



Love this lake during this time of year.

TFFrs what lake is this Still House or Belton?

Never been to either one, but I would like to be there. Heck I donate money to tournaments all the time, might as well make it for a good cause. I would feel better about giving my money away.

Hopefully, I can make it work.

Can this be a team with 2 to a boat - if so do you weigh in 10 or 5

The tourney's on Belton. Scott, Im pretty sure I'm not gonna be doing anything on Fri afternoon. If you need help setting up give me a holler.

LegendRick,

Pm sent any questions just ask.

Anyone need or want a backseater for this one? I would like to fish it but am without a boat. 28 year old soldier decent fisherman. Let me know thanks - Erik

Ihave a seat open PM me.
Charles

The donations keep coming! Wes Sparks with Sparks Engine Service in Mertzon Texas donated an additional 1000.00 to the Big Bass pot which now makes it 1200.00. The employees of HighMount E&P in Sonora Texas are sending an addditional 1000.00 in donations for these families

I have a boat and would be interested in fishing it. Don't know much about the lake so if there is someone that would like to fish but doesn't have a boat and knows the lake fairly well send me a message. Josh

Hey Josh! We are in the same boat as well in regards to not knowing the lake, but we are on the way none the less! Come join us, it will be a fantastic event!

Im just not a fan of fishing by myself unless I'm just our for a couple of hours.

We will be there! great cause.

Sounds like it's gona be a good turn out... See ya'll in the morning.

Hey guys, thanks for putting on a top notch tournament. Had a great time, even in the cold and rain. Look forward to the next one. J.Free
