how many entries were there last year??

Last year we had around 60, this year I expect better numbers due to the SPRO lure packs and overall better fishing on the lake in 2017.

On Site Registration Begins from 5-10pm tonight and again Saturday morning at 4:30 am. Lake Fork Marina and Motel.

Anyone know the results? I think weigh in is over around 3ish?

Took 9.21 to get a check. 4 overs were weighed in, not sure what won yet.

Caught my first over in a tournament today, 9.34 which won big bass. Chris Large and I never could get any good unders so we finished 4th with 13.97

if anyone can , it would be interesting to see the top ten weights.
thanks

Thanks danny

We were fortunate to win it. Shawn caught the Over (25-1/4") about 7:30. I need to get a picture of the Shakey Head Hook. It is bent all to h££|. Then we had to try to get 2 more good Unders in the boat. We had two. Got the last one about 1:00. A 6 oz. upgrade. Most of our fish had moved due to the cloud cover.

Congrats Steve and to your partner

Great job Steve!

Here is the Shakey Head Hook. Spot Remover peg was actually drilled through the outside corner of mouth.

Wow, great job winning you two there were some above average anglers in that top 10. Well done indeed.

Strong weights for sure!

Congrats Coach!!!!!!!

Incredible!!

Where's the bait Steve?

Thanks guys. The fish either swallowed it or shook it off. But, nice try.
