Any guesses on what it's going to take for a two day total to win? Looks like it's going to be championship conditions, bringing out the best from our anglers. Come by and say high on Friday or Saturday, as I'll be setting up at The Minnow Bucket pavilion like last year.



Just a reminder to all of our tournament anglers, if you fished two or more qualifying tournaments OR finished in the top five at a qualifying tournament, your are eligible to fish the state championships this weekend at Lake Fork. I'll see you at the weigh-in line!

is there a link to this tournament,,??

Jim Sr closest thing I can think of in regards to a link is the Crappie Angler of Texas website or Facebook page

I found this,..do they have it on Fork every year,...??

The State Champ tournament isn't on Fork every year. Moves around to different lakes.
The weigh in should be live on the CAT Facebook page each day. Sometimes the signal is weak at the Minnow Bucket. but if there's a signal, you can watch the weigh in.

Just looked at the weather for Friday. Looks like a rough day of fishing. Good luck to all.

I dont see very much advertisement/sign up information on this...

Just sign up at the Minnow Bucket on Fri @ 5-630 the day before,...

JIm Sr., if you'll look on our 2019 Tournament Schedule, you'll see all the information right there on the same line as where the location of the tournament is being held. As for signups, you can show up on Thursday from 5:00-6:30 (as shown) or you can signup online as always. If you signup on Friday, you'll be a day behind, as it is a two day tournament starting on Friday and ending on Saturday.

You'll also notice we are throwing a fish fish fry Friday night for our end of the year banquet. Starts at 6:00pm at the Lakeview Pavilion.

JIM SR,
There's not a lot of advertisement or promotion because this is not an "open" tournament. It's sort of a finale to our season of monthly CAT Qualifiers. Teams qualify for this tournament by fishing Qualifiers during the year. There are typically 25-30 teams in each division that have qualified, and about 20 in each division will typically fish it. It's the best of the best competing for bragging rights and a little extra payout. We've held it on other lakes like Palestine, Cedar Creek, etc. but Fork just puts out such big fish in the fall that it's hard to beat as a location for this event.
As Lane stated, the weigh-ins will be Friday and Saturday afternoon. Both will be on FB Live (hopefully with a good signal), and after the final weigh-in Saturday there will be lots of good information shared. The Fish Fry and Awards Ceremony on Friday night is open to the public as well, although guys are a little more tight lipped with one more day to go in the tourney.
Come out and see us!

Now it makes sense...thanks a bunch. We will probably come by, my RV is about a 6 iron from Minnow Bucket.
I also have several secret brushpile/structure waypoints on sale, (just kidding)...

So Ken, who are the teams that are going to participate?

Crappicat, there will be 40-50 teams there. Every team that has fished at least two qualifiers or has placed in the top five at one of our tournaments is qualified for the TSCC
