Haha, Dang RJ, you sound pumped!!! Sounds like I'll be following you tonight.. lol

I hope to do decent haha. We'll see what happens though.

Oh, yea before I forget... The Mariner Sails Thursday Working Man's Tournament will be held at Marine Creek. There will only be 2 more of these left for the season, so if you haven't made it out you need to. We've had a great year, and I think everyone had learned/gained a lot of fishing/kayaking experience and made a bunch of new fishing buddies. As always, if you haven't made it out to Mariner Sails you need to swing by and say thanks for all the wonderful support they have given us all Year Long. See ya'll Thursday!!!

With the couple of cold fronts that have moved through I expect marine creek to be on fire this afternoon! Marine creek has been the most productive lake for the Thursday nighters this year! There have been several limits turned in at one time on this lake. That's no easy feat considering the small amount of time we are on the water! Also Matthew caught an absolute MONSTER out of marine creek earlier in the year! Hope everyone makes it out, and hang on when you get bit, it could be that next monster!

I won't be there so you might have a fair shot at winning.......

Okay, guys and gals... tomorrow will be the last Mariner Sails Thursday Working Man's Tournament for the year. We will be meeting at Panther Pavillion in downtown Ft. Worth under the Henderson Bridge. The trinity has been on fire and everyone has been catching good fish downthere. Come out bring your "A" game and have some fun. We have heard your requests and so this is gonna be a knock out battle. The big bass side pot is getting raised to $20 and will be split 75/25 to the 1st and 2nd big bass. Aris Tsamis @ Mariner Sails has stepped up big time and increased the amount on the gift certificate to $100!!! So the biggest stringer of 5 fish will take that home! The battle for the last cup will be a close race between Stan and Nathan DeBord. Last but not least, we will also be raffling off a ‪#‎TFOrods‬ flyrod donated from the awesome Jerry Hamon himself!!! All that and we will also have the usually stuff donated from Xcite Baits, Kjscustomlures, and Fringe Tackle Company!!! These guys have been awesome at keeping us supplied all year long!! See you Tomorrow!!!

This has been a great adventure! My thanks to all who participated, organized and donated to this MOST SUCCESSFUL KAYAK FISHING SERIES IN DFW TO DATE!

Congratulations to you all!

We will also raffle off a railblaza rod holder tonight! Don't miss out guys and gals!

Workingman's Challenge Success!

Duc and Jason did a FANTASIC job pulling this event off! We couldn't be more fortunate here at Mariner to have these guys involved in helping is grow the sport of kayak fishing. What a great windup to a season of Kayak Fishing FUN! This was one enjoyable event! This was also the largest amount of money EVER RAISED AT A G2G for HOW! The official count will be out soon - watch for details!

Something that also helped to make this event successful........Duc, Jason and Bryan's SEASON LONG effort to promote and execute our "Workingmans" events EVERY THURSDAY NIGHT for weeks and weeks and weeks on end! This first building block brought new folks into a tournament atmosphere by providing a casual experience and introduction to tournament fishing. Bravo gents! I know that you all invested quite a bit of time energy and resources to the success of these events. It is obvious you 3 aren't just "going through the motions", you are fully invested in making this experience a great one for folks wanting to participate in a tournament experience without any pressure. This is the way to grow kayak fishing!

Thanks to all of you who participated and I'm looking forward to seeing if the "Workingmans" Catfish Series grows legs!

Aris, thanks again. Unfortunately I don't know what to do with myself. Can't wait until next season, think I'll just hibernate.

Thanks John! We'll see if we can put together some more fun for you soon....... Don't forget the Lowrance Clinic on the 20th.......and I'm pretty sure we have a November weekend event on the Brazos that Jerry has organized......then - think catfish!! ........Try hibernating now!
