Belton, Austin, Cedar Creek, LBJ are all prime night lakes. Moon-phase doesn't matter to me. Entry fee $160-200.
They used to do 8-8 with a split weigh-in at 12:00 am. It was a blast.
I'd fish all three if you did a central night trail June/July/August. Especially Belton/Austin/Stillhouse (or LBJ).
You want to see some big stringers of smallmouth Belton at night, any of those months would be killer. Austin would have some big sacks too. Stillhouse could be lights out, depending on the lake level and the grass.
Good idea mixing things up BLT!

While I agree a 200.00 entry fee makes a nice payday for some folks it will also put a strain on some in today's economy . Don't ya think you would draw more fishermen at a lower rate ? Just a thought....

Thats what killed the night tournaments around Belton in the past. Nobody wants to fish all night to win $200. Now $1,000+, umm yea... I'll be there.
They have club tournaments that have night tournaments all time at a lower cost entry fee if that's what you're looking for.
I would rather fish against a few for alot rather than alot for a few. Keep the entry fee the same as they are for the day tournaments.

Hubbard Creek and O H Ivie These two lakes kick out 30 lb stringers consistently. No telling what weights would be for night tournaments. If you have a series on these two lakes I am definitely "all in"!

+1 for Belton or Stillhouse. $150-$200 would be reasonable
