Game time is sunrise to noon, the weigh in happens right around the time the mudbugs are finishing up.

Format is Catch Photo and Release, but if you are digitally challenged bring the legal ones in alive and we will work with you. It is still length only though not weight. This is a FUN tournament :-)

There will be some other entertainment as a Turkey shoot with rods, as well as casting competition (moving targets in the creek ) and some kayak ( paddling) based competition as well.

Food will be served when the cooks get good and ready, but probably start serving around noon.
