    Anybody fishing the 300k derby at Rayburn this weekend?

    They expect entries from all 50 states...should be fun for those that catch a big one. I'll stay home for this one. Good luck to all.

    Wow 8,000 entries ain't "Growing the Sport" the greatest thing you've ever "Lived to Dream About" ?

    Those inexperienced boaters had better stay out of the way of those 8,000 Professionals fishing for the Big Check as when you are fishing for that much cash they surely have the Right Away..

    Wheres that guy that posted the pic of another angler cutting him off.....when he was on about the 5th dock down an 1/8th mile away? I imagine you can step from boat to boat it'll be so crowded. It would be fun to fish for that much, someone will have a big payday!

    Half the people fishing it won't be real bass fisherman. They will have guys that fish once a year.

    They ought to close the lake to everyone else so the 8,000 Pros who know how to drive fast on the land and water don't have another 8,000 inexperienced boaters following them around trying to steal their spots and secret techniques.
