Kings of Cowtown Updates????

Donnie, when will a decision about Grapevine be made????

I will make a decision on July 20th. I sent an email to all the teams last week with the updates. If you didn't get the email then I probably have the wrong email address for you. If you didn't get it please text me your correct email address. Right now my options are very limited as to what I can do. I am waiting as long as I can to see if more options become available.

did not get the email....

I didn't get the email either. Clint N.

I will make the decision at 5pm today. I will email every email address I have on file and text every number I have on file. I will also post here

Man I hope it's on Bridgeport, Benbrook, or Lewisville....

As everyone is aware, Lake Grapevine is closed to boat traffic.
Unfortunately we will not be able to use that lake for our tournament
this year. I have held off as long as possible to see if more options
would become available for us. I have to make a decision as to where we
are going to go in place of Grapevine. As you all know, I don't have
many options to choose from and I apologize up front if the decision I
make is not your preference. Someone has to make the decision whether
its a good one or bad one. I have thought countless hours where or what
we can do. The only options that I thought we had was 1, go to Eagle
Mountain or Lake Worth twice. By doing this I think that it would really
only benefit the locals on the two lakes. Also, This tournament is
designed for a 3 legged event on 3 different lakes. My 2nd option was to
do the final leg at Lake Arlington. I chose to not go to Arlington
because it is simply too small for 56 teams. It would have been the most
convenient because it is only about 15 minutes from Fun n Sun (final
weighin location), however, its just too small and teams would be on top
of each other causing a lot of arguments between teams. I have decided
to put Lake Granbury in the schedule because it is big enough to
accommodate 56 teams. I understand that its tough fishing on that lake
right now but they all are tough now. I looked into Lake Lewisville, Joe
Pool, Benbrook and all other local lakes and they are all closed. This
tournament is not designed to be easy, it is designed for adjustment,
mental toughness and consistency. If we wanted it to be an easy
tournament, We would do this in the spring where every one could catch
them. Again, I apologize that we could not go to the original lakes like
we do every year. Below is the official schedule of events for this
years Kings of Cowtown Tournament.

I like it. Not many options with lakes closed.

Any refunds? Going to be too hot for my wimpy azz. .. lol good deal, u will never make everyone happy no matter what...

Donnie,

Let us know if you have an opening. Pete and I would be in for sure.

weatherford

56 teams on that lake would be fun to watch. One boat on every dock and then 10 boats on the dam.

56 boats on weatherford lol? Y'all could tie off to each other and make circles around the lake flipping docks!

What ramp are y'all going out of granbury?

If I had to guess, I would say rough creek, about the only one that will hold that many boats

We are going out of Rough Creek Park as of this time. If anything changes, I will let everyone know at the meeting.

Going to be busy morning at the Ramp. The Bass Club of Fort Worth is launching there that morning as well.

377 better than Rough Creek. Imo.

Almost impossible to do a controlled start from that ramp. We will talk about it at the meeting

Biditat 25 now 30 would ya give 30 ???? #soldsoldsold #youboughtit ……

Well with only a couple of weeks to go and days getting HOTTER we need to be thinking about the Calcutta Auction Teams and who you want to bid on. I hear fishing is going to be a little tougher this year. Maybe we should be thinking about those that can grid it out the best. Remember it’s a 3 part tournament. The tortoise will win the race on this one for sure. I just want to take this time to say thanks to Donnie for giving me the opportunity to conduct this Auction and thanks to ALL those who have had a part in putting this together from FUN & SUN to Moritz Chevy and all walks of life in between because without the sponsors none of this would be possible. Looking forward to seeing everybody again and hearing all the fish stories of the one that got away. Remember guys LOTS of WATER during the tournament it’s going to be HOT I’m sure. See y’all on the 8th of Aug. at the meeting.

As tough as these lakes been fishing...12lbs coming out of day 1 would be a accomplishment...20 lbs just might be enough to take home the crown this year....Its TOUGH....!!!

By far the toughest fishing I have ever faced.

It will take 20lbs just on eagle, worth and granbury different story.

lmao

I think this is gonna be the toughest Kings of Cowtown Tournament to date. I think 26 will win it and 19 will get a check. By the way my practice has gone, I am just hoping to not come in last place

You won't have to worry about that, we might just rest up and show up to EM on Sunday

The Mandatory meeting is this Saturday at Fun n Sun. At least 1 member of each team must attend

What? Why are we having it this saturday?

Nevermind.... I just read your post....

Dinner and Calcuta at Fun and Sun right?

dinner will be served at 6pm followed by meeting and calcutts

What's off limits
