David,
Even People from Grundy are welcome! Hopefully, everyone that is fishing a tourney, or just fishing in the area that weekend will invest $10 dollars in a big fish pot. All the proceeds from this rodeo go to the Marion County High School Quarterback Club. There are a lot of door prizes to be given away at the end also.
 
I believe this outing is next weekend if I have read my calendar right. My little nephew has talked me into taking him and he sold me a ticket, his mother owns the Anchor Inn Bait and Tackle in Guild/Haletown, he is hoping to win this thing. Come on everyone, buy a ticket for a good cause and just maybe you might win, bring all the neighbor kids and teach them how to fish.
 
Don't forget to pick up your Big Fish Ticket before midnight. You can pick them up from Anchor Inn Bait and Tackle. This will make a good big fish pot ticket if you are fishing a tournament on the Nick. Good Luck to all this weekend.

Fished the rodeo. Didn't catch any big ones, but had a great time. Hope you guys do it again next year. Also thought it was great to see so many people enjoying the outdoors and nickajack lake.
 
Wife and I fished it also. Great way to support a local Football program. Weighed in a 29 lb. catfish on Saturday and Troy Boeck took a picture and told us he would post them online. I actually need it because it was a T.A.R.P. and it will complete my catfish for the program. Are other pictures posted anywhere yet?
