Haha, Ski you got a shot of Russ holding his sissy net!

Congratulations guys! Sure enough was a tough bite on most areas of the lake.

Thanks Jason for all of your hard work on the trail this year.

Good job on the trophies Jeff....!!!

Hope to see everyone next year....

Congrats to all that participated! Well deserved! :cheers2

Awesome and congrats. Thanks for sharing

Congrats to the winning teams, Good Times. I had fun. and Great Pics. See you guys next spring.

Congrats guys

Congrats to all who fished. Looking forward to next year!

I had a good weekend. I did figure out why it does not hurt my feelings to sit in a tree during the fall. Shad were every where and the fish were not. At least not for me. I had a great time and enjoyed a good dinner on Friday night with a great group of guys! My hat is off to Dustin and Kelley, congrats to you!!

Dardanelle, like most of the lakes I fished in the central Arkansas area this year, proved to be tough for me. I learned a lot about the lakes and I know there's plenty more to learn. I also learned that sometimes I need to get back to my basics. I met some of the finest folks I've ever met this year. I appreciate the tips, the phone calls, the help and all the laughs! Everyone involved in the tournaments are great people!!!
If you folks have ever considered fishing one of the tournaments, you need to do it! If you get in there and fish, you are going to learn something! It is a great experience and the people fishing are really good people. Yes there is competition involved and no it is not for everyone. What money I spent has been well worth it for the information that I have gained.

Jason, great job that you and Jim did putting this together and keeping it going!! I'm sure that 2014 will be even better.

Congrats to all that fished Saturday. I'm looking forward to 2014!!!

Good on you too, Kent, for making that long a haul to fish the tournament. :ThumbsUp That's a good example of support for the association, in my opinion.

Congrats to the winners. Sounds like y'all had fun.

Congratz Team Crappieholic -- Great pictures, Looks like everyone had a great time.

Thanks guys, congrats to all, it was a rough day of fishing. Hopefully our club will do nothing but grow from here! It was a great season and looking forward to next year.

Its worth the price of admission just to hear how the guys that were successful did it especially on tough days like Saturday. IMO it makes you a better fisherman after hearing how they fished because it will make you look closer at how you fished and what you did or most importantly didn't do. Congrats Team Crappieholic's!!!! I would like to say thanks to Jason one more time for putting this all together.

Great Win Dustin & Kelly!
