"Tickets for the event are $20.00 and the ticket is also good for another $500.00 drawing. The winners of the tournament will be crowned “King” of Lake D’Arbonne for the year. There are also some pretty good lady fishermen out there, so there is a chance there might have to be some slight adjustment in that title, by the way! This tournament is good for all ages. Fish bank or boat. King of King’s on Lake D’Arbonne."

Brandon, you are doing an awesome job to promote our sport.....

Brandon, did I understand your post right? If I buy a ticket from you for $20.00, that is my entry fee into the big fish tournament? Just wanted to make sure. Thanks Brandon, for all of the time, money, and energy you spend promoting a sport so many of us love. May God bless you.

Will the weigh-in be at D'Arbonne Point?

Yes Pastor, with a ticket purchase of only $20.00 you can weigh-in for both categories....(1) Crappie and (1) Bass each worth a chance at $500.00 CASH. Also your ticket goes into the door prize drawing at the D'Arbonne Expo on March 28th (the following weekend) for a chance at another $500.00 cash prize. That is 3 chances to WIN, a total of $1500.00 to be given away! The Winners will also receive a Large Trophy 4' or maybe even 6' for each categorie, and hold the title of "King" of D'Bone for one full year. This will be a yearly event, so defending your title or passing it along will become a yearly event.




It is events like this that bring focus and funding to Farmerville. This event will help fund future projects through the Chamber of Commerce. Events like Krappie Kings, Crappie Masters, King of Kings, etc. are not possible without funding. Doing our part to assist the Chamber so that they may continue to help others such as the Dept. of Tourism, Police Jury and other Union Parish Entities in promotion of Lake D'Arbonne!
