Wednesday - August 18th - COX PARK - 6:00 to 9:30 - $20 winner take all

[artcarney_agr]

6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.

$20 per boat, winner take all; ties determined by largest bass

Cox Park - meet in parking lot around 5:30 - 5:45, takeoff at 6:00

1 lb. deduction for each dead fish

5 fish limit per boat - 12" on all bass

Previous winner shall hold onto the entry fees during the tournament - holding the money is a proven curse!

Disqualification for any short fish brought in to be weighed - so make sure it measures at least 12"!

Stay out of Captain's Quarters marina - fish the mouth all you want, but don't go past the sign...it's off limits.

A casual event, open to anyone. Very informal, and fun. It's not sanctioned, no memberships, or anything like that. It's officially non-official.

If you plan on fishing it, please post below so we know to look for you.

If you wish to launch at Duffy's, that's okay too, just come on over to Cox before 6:00 to put your money in the pot.

Maybe I can bust the curse this time.

I think technically, your partner should be holding the money, since he caught all the fish last time, right?

[Esnow76]

Dad won't be able to make it this time. I wish he would have caught one of our keepers, he was a little dissappointed he didn't catch one to weigh in but he had a good time regardless.

[teamskeetersteve]

I'm glad i don't have to hold the money this time!!!lol

[artcarney_agr]

Hoping it's a little cooler this time!

[Esnow76]

no kidding, last weekend at Monroe was miserable

[artcarney_agr]

It's getting to be pretty dang dark at 9:30 - should we maybe bump our ending time to say maybe 9:15 ? Or should we just leave it at 9:30 since it's already posted as such and make note for the next one?

[Joe Skeeter]

I'd say we make it 9:00. I have seen too many large logs just at the surface to be running in the dark. We can make it clear at take off.

[Esnow76]

I'm with Joe

Skeeter Joe squeaked out a win over Snow.

Joe had 1 LM at 3 lb 2 oz, Snow had 2 spots at 3 lb even.

The money curse continues!

[Joe Skeeter]

My 1st bite in weeks. Glad it paid off.

Great job Joe... we came up a little short. I don't think I'll get to fish anymore of these this year but can't wait till next year. I want to thank everyone for taking a minute for me to talk about my wife and her campaign.

One question though.....isn't she a little out of your league?!?!

[back_lash]

YES, no kidding. She is a wonderful person but... I kind of "robbed d grave". We first dated when she was 14 and I was 16. Her dad didn't like the ideal of his daughter running around with me, go figure . Now having a daughter I don't blame him at all. She's not allowed to have a boy friend till she's like 40 . We got back together when she was 16 and we've been together ever since.

Trace Adkins, said it best...

(This is for all you sophisticated ladies out there)

She grew up in the city in a little subdivision,
Her daddy wore a tie, Momma never fried a chicken,
Ballet, Straight A’s, Most likely to succeed

They bought her a car after graduation
Sent her down south for some higher education
Put her on the fast track to a law degree

Now she’s comin home to visit
holdin the hand
Of a wild-eyed boy
with a farmer’s tan

And shes ridin in the middle of his pickup truck
Blarin Charlie Daniels yellin, “Turn it up!”
They raised her up a lady
but there’s one thing they couldn’t avoid
Ladies love country boys

(You know its true)

Yeah, you know momma’s and daddy’s want better for their daughters
Hope they’ll settle down with a doctor or a lawyer
In their uptown, ball gown, hand-me-down royalty

They never understand
why their princess falls
For some camouflage britches
and a southern boy drawl

Or why she’s ridin in the middle of a pickup truck
Blarin Hank Jr. yellin, “Turn it up!”
They raised her up a lady
but there’s one thing they couldn’t avoid
Ladies love country boys

(oooh, get country with it)

You can train ‘em
You can try to teach ‘em right from wrong
But it’s still gonna turn ‘em on

When they go ridin in the middle of a pickup truck
Blarin Lynyrd Skynyrd yellin, “Turn it up!”
You can raise her up a lady
but there’s one thing you jus can’t avoid
Ladies love country boys

They love us country boys
Ooooooh yeah
It's that country thing you know
