Challenge activities worth noting:

On Thursday, March 1, from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm, Wild Carp Companies, USCARPRO Magazine, and the Lake Fork Sportsman's Association are arranging for demonstrations on the latest Carp & Buffalo fishing techniques and guest speakers who are experts on rough fish species and the emergence of rough fish tournaments in Europe and other parts of the US. The Saturday post-tournament awards ceremony will take place at 2:00 pm. Both the outreach event and awards ceremony will take place at Oak Ridge Marina. The public is invited to both.

The public is also invited to visit the various peg sites during the tournament to watch the Challenge anglers in action. The peg site information will be posted at Oak Ridge Marina after the drawing.

I was just asking Jason if he had a chance to do that as he said he was going to post it here on the TFF and on the WCC website..

You have a ton of carp anglers close to that lake we all know there are big fish there but the reason many of us don't fish it is because lake of bank access. So yes many of us are interested in the locations of the pegs.

Fork and Town Lake can not be compared Fork is a 27,000 acre lake in the middle of where Town lake is a public park with pretty much unlimited bank access...

I was going to fish it with dave, he saw the bivy rule and booked a trip to the Bahama's with his family. Then I talked to AL and was going to fish it with him but JD decided he was in so I just decided I would come and hang out with everyone instead.

That is hilarious rolfmao

After the hardships some of his competitors had to endure in some of his tourneys (I can guarantee there are some guys who fished the Worlds in 2005, that would have given their right arms to have even had a bivvy to take up or down) cool

I thought you and him were hardcore carpers .

In the words of Billy Ocean............When the going gets tough (Or potentially uncomfortable) the tough don't bother !!! banana

I have to say I was wrong, I didn't think you guys could pull it off with out the private land I have fished fork plenty of times and just didn't see how it would work.

hats off to seems like it is turning out really well.

I don't mind eating crow and love being wrong if it helps grow carp fishing in Texas.
