Who all plans to fish this?
We need a huge turn out to raise the money Blake's family desperately needs.
Also for anybody that's not fishing the tournament but would like to pitch in there will be lot's of raffle prizes and give aways at the Fun-N-Sun weight in as well. Please mark your calenders and come out we need all the participation we can get. I realize there is not a lot of time to plan and this was announced with very little notice but due to the urgent situation we had to get something going as soon as possible. I look forward to seeing you all there.

Monte,
My wife and I will be fishing Fort Worth Anglers' Club on Bridgeport this day otherwise we would be there. We have made a donation through our C.A.S.T. Metroplex region which will be given to Blake's family. All of us in the Metroplex region send our thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Steve and Debbie Amburn

I just spoke with Blake's wife and she's very thankful for all the thoughts and prayers. She will be posting soon to personally thank you all for your support in this difficult time. She said Blake would have been so proud to know that so many of his friends were stepping in to help out and do all this for him and his family. She also expressed an interest in taking part in the tournament as well.

good news... i have spoken with Lane and Tony from SureLife and they are going to donate product for this event to help ensure proper care for our fish since we will be transporting them in our live wells to Fun-N-Sun. i would also recommend that anglers read the BassChamps/ Falcon Lake protocol at http://sure-life.com/pdf/bass_champs_falcon_tips.pdf to ensure proper live well care so we can provide the best fish care possible.

Do we go to FUN N SUN then proceed to fishing destination then return to fun n sun for weigh inn? Or is that first stop only necessary if you are not inrolled before the 23rd? Can you pre- register then proceed directly to lake of choice and start fishing at 6am?

You may pre-register prior to Saturday and not have to come to "Fun-n-Sun" until the weigh-in at 2:00pm. The open registration has been implemented to register those anglers that do not pre-register but still want to take part. Do we go to FUN N SUN then proceed to fishing destination then return to fun n sun for weigh inn? Or is that first stop only necessary if you are not inrolled before the 23rd?
