This was a good one last year but hot as H*@L!!!! Looks like we may get lucky on this weekend and it be pretty nice. Right now if it does not change we are looking at a low of 69 and a high of only 85 with a 20% chance of rain. emoThumbsup Weights were a little down on this one last year with only 18 lbs getting paid. The winners had 24.08 to take 1st. The winners last year were none other then our very own president SHANE FRAZIER!!! and his dad, Randy! emoWorthy Goes to show if Shane can win one of these any one can. emoPoke They also had big bass of the event with a beauty at 9.47 lbs. emoWorthy Hope to see a good crowd at this one. Looking forward to it. emoTongue Jmax

I think 24-26 wins this event. Looking forward to it.

Must be true, I was just talking with Allen Hyde yesterday and we came up with the same number. But, then again, on this lake if a boat pulls up on a school of big bass on the river feeding all bets are off. Could boat 30 lbs in 30 minutes. emoEek Jmax

I think its actually going to take a little more than that because the lake has been fishing bigger this year. I think it will take 28 to win. As for who, I have no idea. Since the June day tournament I have fished 3 times total and each time was a CBA. It may be interesting for us on Saturday as we will be fishing out of Dallas's new boat. Hopefully we can get everything figured out on it on Friday...

Can't wate to see it maybe it will have an alarm to let you know when batteries are low. Wonder if Jmax can add one to your Ranger
