Fall tube tourneys and other news - 09/19/03 01:54 PM
Here is the tournament schedule for the fall:
9/27--Amon Carter (Great spot--heavy timber, clear roadbed, creek channels, almost 0 boat traffic! Directions forthcoming)
10/4--Grapevine (Twin Coves)
10/18--Black Creek (Caddo/LBJ Nat'l. Grasslands)
11/1--Joe Pool (Location TBA)
11/15--Clear Lake (Caddo/LBJ Nat'l. Grasslands)
All tournaments will begin when there is sufficient light to ensure safety and will end at noon.
Directions to specific tournament headquarters and individual lake regulations will be posted ASAP.
Tournaments will still be $25 to enter, $10 for big bass. Payouts will remain the same.
In other news...
--We have decided to put off the formal creation of the Lone Star Float Tube Association until February.
--We are looking into creating a club website, and will post information as soon as it is available.
--We have also discussed having events that do not focus on only largemouth, such as bream, crappie, or sandbass tournaments.
The plan is to create a group which emphasizes FUN and FISHING, with a little friendly competition thrown in for good measure. We want to keep the dues cheap, have some social events (fishing trips, of course), meet occasionally to discuss tubin' and share ideas, and, of course, hold tournaments. Fishinaddiction is working on a few sponsors, who would help with publicity costs, prizes, etc. Anyone who has suggestions or questions is encouraged to post them or email me, Kelly Denham, or Fishinaddiction.
