Yes. Didn’t Conroe set some attendance records?

No actually the attendance was little disappointing but they picked a bad weekend in Houston to do it. A couple weekends earlier like the the weekend it is this year would have been better.

I hope so.

Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville (the old La Torretta resort on Lake Conroe) is set to open up this summer.

Texoma and WinStar would be cool, but I don’t see that happening for a classic. I don’t see many lakes in Texas that have a large enough convention center close enough and willing to pay the money, but I really hope to see it back in Texas sooner rather than later

I went the time the Elites series did Texoma 5 years ago, fan turnout was dismal for that alone I don't see them going back to Texoma any time soon if ever.

I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. Place is a mud hole. I live 15 minutes from there. The additional 40 to Conroe is more than worth it,

Unfortunately the last time it was on Texoma there was a 7 fish limit and not a single limit was weighed throughout the entire tournament.....
Doubt it will go back there. Also unfortunately, it’s now more about drawing crowds and their money than it is about the best fisherman so many, many great fisheries are passed over. I would like to see it go back to the “secret lake” format.....with today’s technology it could be a secret until the minute they launch, then be available online or broadcast.

I would think that isn't a good idea but it might not make any difference since it isn't downtown Houston.
