Looking forward to it. Was on lake graham last week and caught some nice fish. More than enough lake for everyone. Come out and support our service men and women.

Re: Charity Bass Tournament for our Soldiers!!!! - 09/08/12 07:12 PM

You will thank that if there is that many teams out there... Can you prefish on Friday or should I say is there any off limits?
Posted By: Phoenix dude

Re: Charity Bass Tournament for our Soldiers!!!! - 09/09/12 06:26 PM

There is no off limits. Remember there is two lakes here connected by a 200 meter cut. Very similar to lake Tyler. Should be a great event...drive through weigh in at the arena in Graham. Free catfish tank for the kids. Small town showing some love. Come on out!

Hello...

I live in Graham, I have not seen anything about this in the local paper or on the news..... Have you done any of that? I am not sure that the public support will be very big unless they get some notice.....

Great Project!!!!
