"Just a reminder", The month's of July and August have a 2 p.m. weigh-in.


June Tournament:

The June tournament was held at the Tensaw River out of Hubbard's Landing. There were 16 members and 5 guests present to fish at safe day light. The tide was incoming all day, we had partly cloudy skies in the morning changing to mostly sunny the rest of the day. The water was stained to muddy in most places. Some of the guys went to the grass for some clear water and hopefully a good top water bite, but the word was that the fish were short striking mostly. Others fished the main river and some creeks with lay downs and treetops. At the weigh-in, only Larry and Rich were fortunate enough to have caught their limit.
Crank baits worked the best in the shallow diving series. Larry had the big fish of the day which weighed in at 4.84 lbs and he also took 1st place with a total of 12.74 lbs. Rich finished 2nd with 11.08 and Tony Boyett had 6 fish that took 3rd place with 9.40 lbs. The 5lb Boo ray pot still lives another day.
