This will be the Toyota Texas Bassfest which used to be the Toyota Texas Bass Classic. There will be a TON of vendors. A bunch of cool TPWD exhibits and activities, as this tournament continues to raise funds for TPWD. Good concerts, too. If it is anything like the event they put on in Frisco it was horrible. They charged $20 to see the vendors, I would say there were maybe 20 vendors and most were cell phone companies, roofing companies and insurance companies, I saw about maybe 5 fishing related vendors. If they wouldn't of had the concert, which I passed on they would of only had a handful of people, even with the concert there was a very low turnout. The whole thing was horrible, even the weigh in sucked. They put the anglers in the corner of the field so you couldn't see them, they had a stage but didn't use it.

I don't see anything about a concert this year. They may have dropped the concert when BASS picked up the event. They shot themselves in the foot with the concerts at Lake Fork, Promising rain or shine, when it rained it was cancelled. They tried again in Frisco and nobody came.

Lucky me...unlucky me! I just moved to Austin and live literally 5 minutes from the ramp they're launching from...lucky me. I'm going on vacation the second day AFTER they get started...UNLUCKY ME! Dang it I sure wanted to watch these boys in action the whole tourney! Lake Travis has been nothing but a dink fest for me. Plenty of LMB, but dang if I can find many over 2 pounds!! #fishing50feetdeepscaresme

I have to ask. What was the fiasco in Frisco? They moved it from Fork/Conroe to the Toyota stadium in Frisco. Hardly anyone attended because the metromess just doesn't do a very good job of supporting these events.
