I hope you guys aren't letting the chance of rain scare you off. It's just a part of it. The rules state that if the weather is too bad they'll delay the start a couple times before canceling/rescheduling. I think the fact that 18 have pre-registered is a good sign. A lot of people will wait tip the morning of. I like the idea of only having 1 division. I think the fly guys stand just as good of a chance at winning as anybody. There's plenty of fish to catch up shallow.

Hmm slinging a fly gets pretty dang hard when it's windy.

All I'm going to say is , bad weather tends to bring the best bite! Even there! Let us hope it isn't even questionable. Sadly, my work is contemplating working that morning... But until they drag me in im there.

I have a feeling there will be a lot more people there than are pre registering

Rain won't stop me!
I don't have an issue with one division. I just want to fish.

50% chance...the way the weather folks predict weather it'll probably be a nice day with some drizzle early. I'm in, only lightning can stop me.

Ya you got a pretty good shot considering
Josh Sneed will be on Ray Roberts fishing
Bass Champs.

I've been eating for 60 years but can't out eat Takeru Kobayashi!

I'm in the same boat. Keeping fingers crossed that I get all work done Friday.

I'm not and know several that aren't registered that plan on going. Should be a great event!

Yeah ill bet it will be close to a 30 person event probably. Im not afraid of rain at all, I've had some of my best days in the rain/overcast skies. What I am afraid of is lightning and really strong winds. Ive had too many close calls with lightning lol. But like was said they are prediciting 50% chance right now so who knows it may do nothing and it may dump 3" of rain. Its Texas weather and is generally unpredictable!

Hey man you don't look so good. I think you may need to "call in" Saturday lol

Considering that it has been advertised as having two divisions since we first posted the event on Facebook in February, we will maintain two separate divisions. When first posted, we also stated that there would only be registration available on the day of the tournament so we are expecting more to register that morning. The weather forecast has been improving over the past couple of days so we are hopeful that trend will continue. However, we will be collecting everyone's cell phone number at registration as a precaution should we feel that conditions become unsafe after everyone is on the water. In that case, we will send out a mass text message with a request for a reply so that we are confident that everyone has gotten the word.

There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad gear and bad judgement.

I like that statement!

I guess I'll bring my conventional tackle also. If there are only a handful of fly fisherman the pot will be too small to justify the long drive.

Rain forecast is looking better every day. Down to 20% scattered showers with a lot of dry hours in between. I'm bringing waders and a rain jacket, but hopefully it won't hurt the fishing too much.

Of course I don't know if it's worth going since Nathan is going to be there. I've heard somewhere that he has fished the river quite a bit.

It's funny this isn't one of his weekends to "work"
