Hi Guys,

Updated 4/26/19

the gate opens at 5:00am everyone must check in at the tournament trailer. Don’t forget to bring a extra money for the optional lunker prize and raffle prizes. I am posting the entrants for the tournament, as of now we have 33 boaters and 29 rides with some pending. This year we will be having Ranger bucks for Ranger owners. The leading Ranger owner will win $100.00 after the third tournament is over. You must wear Ranger approved shirts at all 3 tournaments. Have a safe trip down and I will see you all there on the water!
