I didn't even weigh a fish, but they rolled the red carpet out. One of the best ran tournaments I have fished.

We drove a long way to fish it and we weren't disappointed. Well ran tournament, Mike did an excellent job, paid REALLY well, good lakes, etc... I agree with Brandon, they roll out the red carpet.
Just a minor suggestion for next time:
Get a few more weigh-in bags.
That was the only issue I rant into, really wasn't that big of a deal though. Overall, A+.
I think once word get's out about how much contingency they are paying out, more teams will definately fish. We drove all the way from Belton, got the last check, and actually made some money after expenses due to contingency. Pretty cool deal.

I fished it and enjoyed it. The weigh in was nice and the launch wasnt to bad. Kinda crowded in that small pocket but thats not there fault. The only thing, like said above, is more weighin bags, but i bet they have that solved by the next tourney.

Well ran, great payout, good lakes, and I would look for this trail to gain momentum. I thought they did a great job, especially since it was the first event for a new organization, looking forward to the next event.

I heard good things but do not know anything else other than what I have heard, I hope they branch out with seperate divisions. I think there is room for a few of these type of event holders in the state.
I am blessed to have a opportunity to live a childhood dream as a professional wrestler

I haven't fished a TTT yet, but most tournaments that provide weigh in bags limit the number in efforts to keep fish alive. Fish are a lot better off in live wells than in a couple of gallons of water in a plastic bag.

Here is what I expierienced with weigh in, their were approx 20 bags, each flight had 40, by the time the first 20 weighed in, the next flight of 40 came in. By the time you attempted to get a bag, you could have had another flight weigh in ahead of your flight. There was no single person controling the bags. I will agree only if there is somebody managing the distribution of bags and ensure each flight is weighed in before the next flight gets bags.
