First, we would like to say how incredibly excited we are about the Platinum Team Trail. We have been receiving calls, emails, and support from all over Texas, and beyond, and there are a lot of people that are ready to sign up. We will be finalizing the website over the next few days with all of the registration info, payouts, rules, etc, and registration will begin on August 1, 2013, by phone starting at 9:00 AM.

Angler Advisory Board

Please keep an eye out for the updates on the website (www.platinumteamtrail.com), and we will do our best to answer questions on the forums.
