That's what makes this country so great!!! We're all entitled to our own opinion. Me personally, I'm just glad someone finally stepped up to the plate to give crappie fisherman the opportunity to tournament fish locally if they CHOOSE to do so.

good deal.......theres going to be a larger number the next time out as this club catches on .......Good job Central Kentucky Crappie Association

How many boats were entered?

13 boats were entered in this one!! Thats pretty darn good considering not a lot of people knew about it. I think this will be real popular when it catches on

Considering the bad weather before the tournament start and the terrible weather just at the end, it was a great turn out. There were 13 boats entered. Ten weighed in 7 fish each, two had 6 fish each, and one was unable to finish.

Congrats to the team of Goforth & Goforth who weighed in 7 fish with an weight of 6.40. Second place went to the team of Noe & Baker with 4.94 and third place went to Boyd & Woodard with 4.82. The Big Fish payout went to Baker & Noe with a crappie weighing 1.34.

Sorry we weren't able to get any pictures this first tournament due to the NASTY storm that blew just as the last fish were being weighed. Really wanted to chat with everyone and grill out to get acquainted with everbody but the weather unloaded pretty bad. Hopefully everything will go a little smoother and the weather will cooperate better at the Taylorsville Tourney on September 25. Hope to see you there! Check the Central Kentucky Crappie Association website for all weighings, placings, and tourney info. Please feel free to call the numbers on the website or listed in a previous posting on this forum and we'll be glad to answer any questions you have also.

Thanks and Catch Big Slabs!!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that the Central Kentucky Crappie Association tournament at Possum Ridge boat ramp at Taylorsville Lake this Saturday, September 25, has been changed to Chowning boat Ramp due to a large bass tournament from Possum Ridge ramp scheduled at the same time. Same date and time---just a different ramp. Apologize for any inconvenience, but we felt it would just be too confusing and inconvenient to launch both tournaments at the same time from the same ramp. Hope to see you there. Good luck and catch big slabs!

Hello Crappie Clan. We had a beautiful day for the Taylorsville tournament and a good turnout with 12 boats. The crappie were up a lot shallower than we thought and most of the fish that weighed in were Black Crappie. Congratulations to all of the winners. 1st place went to Hamner-Coulter with 6.38 lbs. and they also won the big fish pay out. 2nd place went to Major-Hale with 4.98 lbs. and 3rd place was taken by the team of Ashford-Terry with 4.82 lbs. Looks like it's going to be good weather for the Cumberland Lake tournament next weekend. It's not too late to join. You only have to fish 6 tournaments to qualify for the fish off in the spring. We'd love to have ya! Hope to see you there.

Good luck and catch big slabs!

The tournament at Cumberland lake turned out to be a good one. The CKCA is doing a fantastic job !! Those guys are great people and they do care about the world of crappie fishing . They handle all of your questions and they are honest people .They truely are sincere about the sport and are not doing it for the money . As you see ,every dime ,all but what it takes for stamps ,envelopes, etc. . Goes back to the angler . Soon this will be in my mind . The up and coming Crappie USA. As I was talking to one of the Directors. He told me . That it is very possible that thier fish off in the spring . Could have close to $5,000 in prize money !! That aint hay! So why not ask yourselves ? Why not join in on the fun? I highly recomend that you join the CKCA. They soon will be the front runners in the crappie world.
