Fishing for Freedom 2010 has been scheduled for Saturday, September 25th on Lake Belton in Central Texas! The Central Texas Marine Dealers, Inc. in cooperation with the United States Army MWR at Fort Hood, Texas will host our returning Active Duty Heroes in addition to retired Military for all branches of service in a FREE BASS TOURNAMENT!
The 2010 Fishing for Freedom Event will be headquartered out of the Belton Lake Outdoor Recreation Area (BLORA) on Fort Hood. According to Cliff Brown, Owner / General Manager of Texas Boat World in Killeen, “Fishing for Freedom is one way that our community may say thanks to those who have and continue to put their lives on the line for our country. Our desire is to offer a guided fishing experience to every interested soldier.” Rick Smith, President of the Central Texas Marine Dealers, Inc. and Owner / General Manager of Marine Outlet in Temple said, “The only thing a soldier needs to participate is the desire.” Texas Bass Fishermen along with community, state and national sponsors will provide the resources.
Up to 250 hundred Bass Fishermen from across the state will volunteer to take a soldier fishing. Teams will be paired by draw. The potential for a “full field” will place 250 boats and 500 fishermen on Lake Belton during the Fishing for Freedom event!
Each soldier will fish with a seasoned bass angler volunteer who will provide the boat, fuel and also fishing equipment if necessary. Tournament fishing will begin on Saturday, September 25th at “Safe Light” as determined by the tournament director. Due to the large number of entries expected for this tournament, teams will be placed in “flights” and depart the tournament site to head to their fishing location one-at-a-time based on the number drawn.

The Official Fishing for Freedom Entry publication is set to be available by first of September. There are still sponsorship opportunities available in support of this Fishing for Freedom event.
