CATCH at Watts Bar 5/9

[CATCHMAN]

The 2020 CATCH Tournament Trail will be launching from the Fooshie ramp on Watts Bar Lake on Saturday morning May 9 with a $500 first place guarantee. This is an open tournament. This tournament will be sponsored by Tennessee State Senator Mike Bell. Special thanks to Senator Bell and his continued support of CATCH Ministry. Hopefully his schedule will allow him to come give our devotion after the tournament. CATCH does not endorse political candidates, but we can say he thinks a lot like most of us when it comes to fishing, hunting and other outdoor activities. He has led the fight for gun rights and also helped keep the Ocoee River flowing for whitewater enthusiasts.

We will have pre-registration at Fishtales in Cleveland on Friday night, 5/8. The address is 5008 Georgetown Road NW. It will begin at 5:15PM and it will end at 6:30PM - give or take a few minutes either way. We will start when we get set up so there is no wait in line.

This will be first come first serve for launch position. We will blast off in groups of 20 on Saturday morning.

If you cannot attend, you can send someone in your place. A non-participant can only pre-register one boat. Another competitor cannot pre-register you.

You can sign up at the ramp Saturday morning until 6:00am.
