Greers Ferry Lake Tournament

Our second tournament of the season is scheduled for this Saturday morning at 7:00. We will be launching from the old Highway 25 ramp past Tumbling Shoals. If you are not sure how to get there, please feel free to meet a group of fishermen at the Wal-Mart parking lot (in Newport) Saturday. I am not sure what time they will meet, but I will try to update the website later in the week. If you have not fished with us before and plan to fish this weekend, please let a club member know. We would love to have you!

Our first tournament of the year seemed to be a success, and we would love for this tournament to have an even better turnout. I have heard some rumors about the water level of the lake, but I made a few phone calls to Heber today and it seems to be fine to fish. The water is really high there, but where is it not high?

Please feel free to call with any questions regarding the tournament or directions.

Look forward to seeing you there!

Any member that shows up late for a scheduled tournament must launch his boat and immediately find one of the executive committee members to pay their fee and have an inspection on their livewell.

In the event of a tie, the boats that are tied would split the corresponding points and prizes.

Membership fee is $20 per person. These funds will be used to finance the classic tournament at the end of the season.

Any guest can fish 2 tournaments without paying a membership fee, but they must pay the tournament fee. A competitor may fish by himself.

If a team splits up during the season, the club will split their current point totals (both types of points).

If two members of opposite teams fish together in a tournament, they will split both points and weight for standings purposes.

FIRST TOURNAMENT (Site Change)

Due to the water level at Des Arc, we have changed the location for our first tournament. The tournament this weekend (April 5th) will be at Bald Knob Lake. We will start fishing at 7:00. If you have not spoken to myself, Marvin Ross, or Mike Warren and you plan to fish, please give me a call at 870-512-9400. I plan to have the entire fishing schedule, with locations, posted in the next couple of days. I also plan to have a list of club members some time after the first tournament.

I look forward to seeing everybody there!
