Our first event of the year will be on Martin Creek, located south of Marshall, TX. Please make sure you don't carry over ANY salvinia on your boat or trailer, they pretty much check ALL of us with Louisiana plates...and write citations if they find one little piece. There is also an additional "special event" fee ($1/boat) that TP&W charges to hold a tournament there.

Out.........

I've had several people asking me about getting a TX fishing license for Marin Creek, here is the website: http://tpwd.texas.gov/business/licenses/online_sales/
Over 65, you need a Louisiana resident fishing license or lifetime license. Disabled veterans can get a free license online. Under 17, you only need an ID to prove your age.

Non-resident annual freshwater license = $53
Non-resident 1 day all water = $16 (must be for Jan. 14th)
Convenience fee (to pay online) = $5

Last year's winning sack!

Registration will be from 5:15am - 6:15am, with first cast at 7:00am. Please get there early, as they limit the number of boats and it's a very popular lake with the local anglers. Also, there is a $1/boat "special event" fee that can be paid at registration. The fee for park entry is $3/person and should be paid at the entry gate. PLEASE make sure you don't have any vegetation on your trailer, THEY WILL WRITE YOU A TICKET FOR ONE SMALL PIECE!!!
