This is going to be a fun Tourney, Prizes for kids and they fish free, Can fish from the bank, No membership fees required, just 30.00 per person and kids can enter that division also, great hours and beautiful weather forecast. Me and Greg have a young man just itching to see what he bring across the scales. Come on Arkansas anglers it don't get much better than this for the folks wanting to fish a fun family Tourney. I just love watching kids bringing them up to the scales. They are the next generation of crappie anglers unfolding before our very eyes. Good luck and hope all who are fishing bring a Good one to the scales. Can't wait to get out there Sat Apr 2nd.

My son is ready to fish. Hope we can find at least one to weigh. Hope to see a big crowd. This will be a great tournament.

I really wanted to bring Jacob to this one, but I am giving a presentation at the Heber Springs Expo and Jacob has a baseball tournament (1st of the year). I just cant win!

Weather is looking good. Bring the kids out.

I'm jealous!

How did this tournament end up? UPDATE please...

Kelley's youngster won with a 2.05. Following right in the foot steps of his Dad. Good year for that family with a Crappie Masters and a CACA win.

All the results are posted on the CACA sub-forum. Kelleys son did a great job winning the kids Crappie tournament with a 2.05 slab!
