Overall above the slot is a FXR 20 rigged out, largest under is a Yamaha Side by Side then cash for all the places per hour Do they still give away trucks, 4-wheelers, and campers and such? Or just cash for hourly winners? I sure miss fishing this event but not for sure that I could've handled the heat.

Any idea on entrees? Iām thinking with the booming economy it should be a record setting year. They had 1900 entries in 2021 and 1800 entries this year per Bass Champs.

Enjoyed working the event and seeing industry friends. The heat was pretty dang bad, so we packed up shop Saturday evening. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and chatted with us and bought baits/shirts. Great job to Skeeter and Bass Champs. Incredibly well run event.

The best thing about this Tourney every year is I get a new pair of shoes, so I can turn around and run as fast as I can to get away from Fork.

First time attending this for us. We were on front row during the raffle drawings and were the ones that said it was an awful day only because we had 3 get off that day.
My son had a monster hit his popper right at the boat with maybe 3 foot of line out and threw it out before I could get the net. Had one hit my popper right when I turned my head to look at something and spit it out 2 seconds afterwards. Then I had one smash a chatterbait that I was trying to reel in and it jumped and flung it out after about 10 seconds.
Thanks Skeeter for putting this on. We are planning on doing it again next year.

Must have been pretty good if the tourney was 5 times bigger than a H.S. tourney and haven't heard anyone crying yet.

There is one person that is complaining on the Skeeter Owners FaceBook page... I saw a couple complaining, but I was good with it, it was crowded far beyond anything I'd ever fished and that wasn't to pleasant but overall I enjoyed it, Ill definitley be back. It got me thinking about how I was going to bring my bug up to date on electronics and trolling motor. Seriously thnking about selling my bug this fall/winter and up grading to a ZXR with everything on it, probably used after talking to the folks at Diamond Sports this morning.
