Big CACA Tourney Coming to the Big D/Single Pole Only

Hey Guys just want to get the word out there... don't forget about JUN 6th. The CACA will be having a single pole Tourney coming up Soon. One man, One Pole, how much fairer can it get for you guys that don't spider rig or troll. I have heard that Midsouth Super Jig is going to really sweeten the pot for the top team that uses their bait. This is going to be a fun Tourney to be apart of so please come out and fish with us, tell a friend, or just come by and watch the weigh-ins. Hope to see everybody there and you can bet I will be using A Midsouth tube at some point during the Tourney. Let's all get together, Have a good turn out, some fellowship, and let me wish you all good luck to those planning on fishing Jun 6th. Let the single pole battle for Dardanelle begin. Good Luck guys, gals & kids.

You're going to have to launch on I-40. Hope the traffic slows for ya! :biggrin

I was about to post a similar thread. You beat me to it Russ! Don't forget about the new novice division for the teams who just want to test the waters. This was implemented for those that are Leary of diving right into the higher level of competition. There have only been two teams enter a tourney in division 2 so far. Hopefully that will change in the near future.

Hopefully the river will fall out enough by then? Lots have asked if we were still planning to hold the tournament and as long as there is no small craft advisory on lake Dardanelle we will fish!! If there is we will reschedule. I will post next Thursday if we have to reschedule.
Thanks
Jason

Jason, have you considered swapping the Dardanelle and Overcup dates?

I wasnt aware anyone on this forum could do any other than pushin cranks pullin cranks riggin brush riggin flats riggin semi private lake middles. Heck im impressed. Whisker do whisker donts. its all about the consumer man.

CMJ,
It is an option we have discussed but afraid it will be too confusing.

Last tournament was won with single pole and slip corks and it was open to rigging, crank baiting or single pole! We have a lot of talented crappie fisherman in the state. You should join us sometime.

This sounds fun! What are the entry fees?

11) Entry Fees-- Entry fees will be $60 for each boat which automatically includes a $10 big fish entry. Entry fees not collected during registration time will be considered as a non-participating boat to the event and therefore cannot participate in the awards payout. Payout will be 1 in 5 boats. After each 5th boat a place will be added (in example 6 boats enter, two places will be paid, 11 boats enter, three places will be paid and etc.) Entry fees will be cash only. Entry fees do not cover boat launch fees or license it is each person’s responsibility to take care of this. We will follow a 90/10 payout at each tournament 10% will be held out at each tournament to help with payout at the Championship this is still a 100% payback scale with all money being paid out and none being used for expenses!

Division 2 entry fee is $50, which includes big fish.

There is a $40 membership per person each year except kids under 16.

Is this a team tourny? Is it jig only? Can we register morning of the tourny?

Dmane, it is a team tourney, or you can fish by yourself but can only fish with one pole, you are allowed to fish with no more than one pole per team member. No more than (Two) baits on one pole and yes minnows are allowed. You may use that one pole per person how ever you like. Minnows are allowed. You may Register at the Weigh-Ins site between 5:30 AM-6:30 AM, fishing is from 7:00AM-3:30PM, You have until 4:30PM to make it to the weight in line. Hope to see you there.

dont be scared off by the threat of high water , i was there on Memorial Day mainly scanning for for new piles but lake was pretty much at normal pool , worst thing was the muddy water,lake Dardenelle is a very well controlled lake and is nerver more than a few feet high, did drop a jig in on a few piles before i left and the fish will still bite if you find em!!!!Attachment 204557

Cool I seen the fishing report and it was discouraging. Thanks for the report. If I can get one my buddys to fish with me I'll prolly make the trip. Hope to see y'all soon!

Water is still higher then normal but I have had reports of large stringers coming out of Dardanelle! One guy caught over 50 fish and had 25 keepers after half a day and one group caught 80-100 crappie from 7am-3pm earlier this week so it sounds like the crappie are bitting great!! Just need to stay in the bays and out of the main river it has lots of current and is extremely muddy. I hope to see a everyone there! Check out the details for the tournament and added bonus from Midsouth tackle on the CACA sub-forum.

Your Right Jason Them Big D crappie are hammer'in it. Lake a little high and don't be scared of the Muddy Waters.
