NEW HOURS 6:00 to 12:30 weight in at 1:00.

What is the organization/group/charity that is putting this tourney on? Or is this just something you are doing as a individual?

Sounds like a fun tourn. Keeping fish alive or can we ice them?

this is something that we put togeter last year because no one was holding any tourneys on cc. I also did this the help our friends at fishermans warf marina because they were new owners and wanted to help promote them. Also finny tribe in gbc donated some nice tackle packs to us last year. However this year i have become part of a group that holds meals for hungry people in athens texas. All proceeds( which wont be much) will be used to help with a meal to feed 600 people. also i was going to ask that any fisherman that dont want the fish they catch that day would be willing to donate them to us for a fish fry for these people. Yes we will clean. So its just for fun and does have a charitable cause at the same time!

you can ice fish!

My family and I will be entered!

Last year was a long day! In a hour we had our limit. 12 noon weigh in?

We had a great time last year. I agree with Jason...that time of year the fish are extremely active and everyone should have limits by 10 or 11a.m.

Last year we had our limit of sandies by about 9a.m. and ended up going crappie fishing and got a 4 man limit also. Ended up bringing 200 fish to the weigh in. Bad thing was trying to find the top fish to weigh in...all were squished!!!

I cut an hour off already how about we make it get there by 12:30 and weight in at 1:00?

Hey Charles, you need to give me a tour of Cedar Creek sometime.......I have never fished that lake.

Alan
