Our next event is on the Red River on Sept. 10th. Registration and weigh-in will be at the AR Teague boat launch, trailering will be allowed for this event. Registration will be from 5:30am - 6:30am, with a first cast at 6:30am. This will be our final regular event of the year, before our Classic in October. Following weigh-in, we will have a short informal rules meeting and BBQ meal. If you're interested in fishing with us next year, feel free to join us...everyone is welcome.

Cooley Lake and the Port Slack Water Harbor (barge turnaround) are OFF-LIMITS, anyone caught going into those areas to fish will be disqualified and your entry money will be forfeited.

This event concludes our 2016 regular season, we ended up with a total of 180 members this year. Those members that have fished 6 events with us, are qualified to fish our 2 day Classic on Oct. 8th and 9th. We also had our annual meeting and no rules will be changed for the 2017 season. The membership did make a motion to eliminate Martin Creek Lake from the random drawing for Classic lake selections, the motion carried with a majority vote. I will post a separate thread with all qualified Classic contenders.

Our first place team, Chris Nettles/Lance Hunt with winning sack (18.19 pounds) and Big Bass (4.78 pounds)
