Azul’s Catfishing Get-Together is set for Sunday, October 24th at Lake Park on Lake Lewisville.

This is a friends and family fishing event so I encourage y’all to bring a kid if you can.
There will be all levels of anglers attending from guys just starting out to guys that have been chasing cats their whole lives. We’re fishing for fun and everyone is welcome.
*Lake Park has a $10 boat launch fee with an automated gate.
*Gates open at 7am and we’ll meet up and set up next to the back boat ramp.
*We’ll do a Big Fish pot of $10 per boat so bring some cash if you want in.
*We’ll fish until 1:30-2 pm and then do a quick weigh in for the big fish pot.
*I will also have a prize for the Jr Angler that catches the biggest fish and if anyone has something they would like to donate as the prize then let me know.
*Fish Fry to start as soon as we’re done with weigh-in and cleaning.
***No fish over 5 lbs will be kept for cleaning so please abide by the only rule.
We’ll be doing all this lakeside so any help bringing whatever necessary to clean and cook fish would be greatly appreciated.
There is no electric or water so keep that in mind.
I will bring a portable cleaning table, water jugs for cleaning hands and fish, and a fish fryer.
**Need help with cleaning fish, plates and utensils, extra fish fryers, chairs, drinks, and whatever else y’all might think we need to make this thing work.
I will also bring a portable fire pit if I can get out to the ranch and pick it up in time.
I’m not good at this stuff so will definitely need help from my TFF bros to make this thing work.
Hopefully we can make this a fun event and start a new annual tradition each fall.

Let me know who plans on attending and if your able to bring stuff that is needed.
Looking forward to meeting everyone and putting a face to some of my TFF friends.

I will be there! There will be 4 from my clan. Me, Sam, Gerry and Wyatt aka my Texas Tornado.

To help Chris out, below is a list of stuff to bring. If you feel like helping out, copy the list and add what you'll be bringing.

Thank Buddy! Hopefully we get more folks than just me and you! Lol

I can't commit to the tournament as of right now. From the looks of it we will be in town that weekend but life throws curve balls sometimes. I will have to let you know closer to time. I have never been on Lewisville in my whole life. HAHA. Also, I do not have a livewell on my boat, I could use a big cooler and an aerator though. If, we are able to make it then I will definitely help out of items on the list

Come on Matt! Put it on your wife’s Calendar now so she doesn’t plan something else! You will only need the bait livewell on the boat to hold a fish most likely as Lewisville isn’t a big fish lake for the most part. It’s not like fishing Twok or Lavon where huge fish are frequent. I have a tournament livewell you can use. This event is not a tournament by any means, it’s an excuse to get together and meet good folks while catching some fish. Don’t worry about not knowing the lake either as y’all can come fish next to us like we do when I come to Twok.

Man sounds good. I will let my wife know tonight and cross my fingers. LOL.

Chris and all,

I am traveling with work that week, back home on Saturday afternoon. Planning to come, but not sure if I will bring my small boat, fish from the bank, or maybe just come and help clean fish, cook and swap stories... weather and everything else comes into play.

BUT - I plan to be there, and help and ENJOY meeting everyone!

I will add one thing to the list - hand sanitizer. I will bring plenty for everyone. Still have some from the big batches we made at the TX distillery during COVID last year for the first responders and FEMA. It is pretty good at helping to clean smell off hands after cleaning fish, etc. also.

Might also find some adult beverages to share... as long as you like TX Whiskey! LOL

I will watch the list, and fill in stuff that is missing as we get closer! Looking forward to this!

Ken

Heck yea Ken! Thanks buddy! I knew I could count on my TFF bros to lend a helping hand! Drag that boat up here and come fish next to us amigo!

Sign me up for plates, cups, utensils and paper towels.

My boat is at pier 121, so I can meet you guys at the ramp in the morning when you guys launch.

Jimmy freakin Hendrix! My brother from another mother is in the house! I will put you down buddy! Thanks amigo!

Chris,

I found "Lake Park" on the southwest corner of the lake, just off I-35. Having never been to Lewisville Lake, when you say "back boat ramp", are you talking about "boat ramp #2" on google maps?

Just want to clarify for everyone.

Thanks!

Yes Ken…thanks for clarifying!
Lake Park Boat Ramp #2. Trotline Rd. Lewisville Tx

You must use the entrance on Sandy Beach Rd to enter Lake Park. That toll gate is the only access point to Lake Park boat ramps.

Here is a link to the location of the entrance.
