This Open tournament will be hosted by the great Scott Gordon. This is a benefit to raise money for the American Cancer Society of Dallas/Rockwall. We have a guaranteed first prize of $3000.00 and guaranteed big bass payout of $500.00. You can register on line by debit or credit card until October 18th at this site.

FFAC Online Registration

You can register in person the morning of the event at Bass Pro Shops in Garland starting at 5:00AM. We will accept cash, credit card or checks made out to the American Cancer Society. When you register, you can also purchase event t-shirts and raffle tickets. Those will also be available at weigh in.

ALL teams must check in at BPS the morning of the event and get their live wells checked. After you have checked in, you may trailer to a ramp of your choice, launch and go to your spot. First cast is 7:00AM. Lines out of the water at 3:00PM. You MUST be in line to weigh your fish by 4:00PM. The weigh in stage will be set up in the parking lot of Bass Pro Shops in Garland. As you enter the lot from Bass Pro Drive, the weigh in trailer/stage will be on the far right edge straight in front of you. If you are facing the store, the right side of the Bass Pro Parking lot.

We are in the process of getting our list of prizes together. If you have something you would like to donate, please contact me here via PM or e-mail to tomnali2@sbcglobal.net. A full list of prizes will be posted and updated regularly in this post. These do NOT have to be fishing related.

Sponsorship's are available for the tournament. They start as little as $250.00 and go up to $2500.00. If you are interested in sponsoring us, please contact me and I will get you a sponsorship form that details exactly what you receive for your money. A sponsorship of as little as $500.00 includes a free entry to the tournament.

Last years even was a great success for our first time out. We are looking to raise the bar this year. We need you TFF. I doubt there is anyone reading this whose life has not been touched by this terrible disease in one of its many forms. Help us stamp it out! The web site can be used for donations as well. If you cannot be there, but want to help, please contact me. My number is 817-980-0718 or you can PM or e-mail me. Thanks everyone.

A great event for a great cause. We've all been affected, either directly or indirectly, by this horrible disease. Can't think of a better way to support the efforts to find a cure than through the sport we all enjoy so much.

We had 60 boats fish today. Thank you ALL for coming out to support us! Man that wind blew today and the one thing about Mother Hubbard is when she shows her nasty side, the big girls come out to play! Congrats go to the team of Steve Black and Eric Krause who weighed a great limit of 21.03 to take the win. Big bass of the event went to our second place team of Kelly Langhorne and Jeremy Collins who weighed in a 7.64 beast. Full results and pictures will be posted soon.

The most important part was thanks to all of you including our fine sponsors, we raised $28,000.00 for the American Cancer Society. I am humbled by your generosity
