    Me bad..must of missed that date in the above post. What about Friday the 15th of May. Jim told me with this new state rule of approval for tournaments we have a 60 day window to go by. This means we have to give them 60 days notice for up and coming events. With this being said no one knew to much about this new rule so there my be a little grace period we can work with but I think your right April 25th is out.

    I don't know how tough they are going to be on the new rules, if they are your looking at doing it sometime in June at the earliest.

    Just got off the phone with Jim. The paper work is all signed and sent off. Looks like its a go. We move it to Eagle Creek State Park this year do to availability of boat ramp and milestone dates for approval. Again the tournament date is Friday May 15th at the Eagle Creek Boat Ramp.. We may just have a sign up at the boat ramp the morning of. Or Jim may send out entry forms in the mail. I will keep you updated.

    Ill be at Crappie Camp, and Eagle Creek State Park on the 15th. Do you have more info on the tournament. Cost, hours, rules, etc.? I've fished Shelbyville 3 times, twice during crappie camp.
    HOI Crappie Club
    Where family and friends come to compete for a little more than bragging rights.

    Quick, someone teach me how to fish so I can win this tournament!!!

    Ken, can you clarify this please. this means 7am, unless it's not light enough at 7am then it will be after that when it becomes safe light, correct?
