We are only 3 days away from starting the 2011 season. Please remember that pre-fishing is now off limits for the Greers tournament this Saturday. We are going to put in at Devils Fork and launch at 8:00am. We will tentatively plan to weigh in at 4:00pm. I have already received a few calls about the tournament and the season. I expect to have a pretty good crowd Saturday and for the season. Please remind past club members and future members of the tournament.
I would really appreciate everybody trying to be there at around 7:15 or so. That will give us time to get members paid and signed up and also take tournament fees. Remember, at least one boater must be a paid member, so it will be easier if everybody just pays up their membership fee this week. The membership fee is now $25 per person and the tournament fee is $25 per person as well. If you would like to pay your membership before the tournament, just come see me.
If you would like to keep up with our club another way, please follow us on Facebook (Jackson County Bass Club). It looks like the weather should be nice, so I hope to see many people there Saturday morning!
Please feel free to call with any questions! (870-512-9400)
Thanks
BK

Upcoming Tournament Notes
I just wanted to let everybody know that I have heard from a few people that there is another tournament going out of Devils Fork the same day we are fishing. After thinking about it and checking into things, I think we are just going to go ahead and go out of Devils Fork at 8:00am. The other tournament is supposed to take off at safe light, so they should be out of our way, and the parking lot should be plenty big enough.
Also, I have been informed that there is going to be an OPEN fishing tournament this Saturday(Feb 19) at Poinsett in Harrisburg. The tournament will be from 8:00 until 2:00. $50 per boat and 5 fish limit. For any other details contact Rick Sampson at 501-940-7986.
