RHBC fishes Lavon every year but we just found out the COE Ft Worth Lakes have instituted a new batch of fees for tournaments. Not only is there the $75.00 user fee, but now they are also asking for a $500.00 Real Estate fee and they are asking for 2% of the entire tournament proceeds. Looks like the long run of RHBC tournaments on Lavon are over. Extortion!

The timber isn’t as bad as it’s made out to be, I have fished it for 20 plus years and rarely idle anywhere, if you venture down to Wylie look me up at NAPA Auto & Truck Parts I can get on google earth with you.

We heard through the grapevine and the COE confirmed it. The good news is they have reversed that decision and are back to our standard $75.00 fee so we will be there as scheduled in July!
