Also thanks to Eric, for helping me rig all those free rod and reels today!!
They are done bags are stuffed, we are ready to roll. Hopefully, it goes well.

Should be a great day of fishing for kids young and old.

Y'all have a blast out there, we will be joining you in a couple years Dugie! Saturday we are celebrating my son's first birthday during your shindig Have fun though!

If my son was not playing opening day of T-ball on Sat. at 11 a.m. we would be with you at the lake 100%. Have a great time to all the youngsters.

Anyone.

I heard from a friend that fished it that 18 and change won it but not 100% sure

18.88 won the etba...I think they paid 10 places, I heard fishing was a little tough, 7 and something was the big fish.
they had 51 boats I think.

We had 130 kids fish our event and Cowan Thompson spent about 40 min casting at a 4.14 bass between the ramp and the gas pump finally it bit and he had big fish of our event. It was a really good day, thanks again to our sponsors.

That is Awesome Dugie, I bet Cowan was excited.

Thanks for the Update

My son cowan who's real name is coen was pumped. He has seen way to many bassmasters episodes and went Ike on us. After he weighed it in he came back and told me " That's why you never give up". His sister was also in the event and weighed in a .53 goggle eye to win on the perch side. It was awesome. It was a great event and they can't wait till next year.

It took 18.88 to win. Somebody else had the 7.25 big bass. Jeff Jones had a 6.68lb bass. My brother and I got 6th place with 17.14lbs our big fish was 6lbs. There are still a lot of fish on beds but they are 2.5lb-3lbs. We caught post spawn females fishing the first breakline's.

What a great event,I would of loved to see the kids faces when they set the hook.we really need more events like this one.

Took 21lbs to win Kilgore Bass Club. 9lb 15oz Big Bass. Here is the link if your interested.
