Same here it's been years since I've fished. Use to love fishing for bass and catfish on the TN River

Kirk and TheLBLman will be there.
:D "there" :D
Some of us are already :tu: HERE! :tu:

Heck, after you fish Tennessee's "Crown Jewel" Lake,
you'll probably want to move here, too.

Did you know Kentucky Lake has more shoreline than Lake Superior,
and is the largest (surface acreage) lake east of the Mississippi River
other than Lake Okeechobee in Florida?
 
Re: Official sign in for TnDeer bass fishing tournament

Did you know all those big Florida-Strain Chickamauga Largemouth are heading downstream, and ultimately end in Kentucky Lake?

They can only go downstream.

Did you know many believe the next world-record Smallmouth will come from Kentucky Lake?

Since you are already "there" go find us some fish. :D
Don't matter where the fish are now & here :P
It's where they'll be 6 ways from Sunday,
I mean 5 weeks from Saturday :tu:

Can you splain those winning categories?
No big bass category, just big non-bass?

Could make this more interesting with more winning categories?
Biggest Smallmouth?

The $5 is for the big bass pot. You win a door prize for biggest non bass species.

Never been in a tournament with side prizes like this. You guys are making it fun and interesting for sure.
 
Although this is a Tndeer.com Forum Members Only Tournament, you are allowed to bring either a friend or family that is not a TnDeer.com member.

ONLY one angler in the boat has to be a TNdeer.com Forum member.

If you have a friend, Dad, Cousin, Father-in-law, next door neighbor that has a boat you are welcome to invite them to fish with you. Same goes if you are a boater and looking for someone to fish with you.
 
I'll have to get to work in building a livewell for my boat, been wanting to do that for a while anyway. Hope I can make it

I had to build one for the John boat when I first started fishing tournaments. I used a large cooler and a 12 volt fish tank pump to fill the cooler as well as aerate it. Worked great. Hope you make it.
