[cool][blue][size 1]That sounds pretty pricey...just to get on the water.[/size][/blue]
[#0000ff][size 1]Of course, if you hang the world record while you are playing, the rewards could almost defray the expenses of entering the tournament.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]GOOD LUCK. I won't be able to make it. [/size][/#0000ff]

I'm lucky that I get free parking. I still have to pay the entry and parking launch permit though. Whoooooopie, I save 8 bucks from the price tag. But then again, that world record would be nice.

I sure will. I'm going out to play with them abit tomorrow morning (Sun). This should be fun as they are chasing planter rainbows all over the place, yet won't hit any of the imitations.
I do have a secret weapon for them. After I catch one on it, I will take a picture and let everyone see. I even bought me an extra large livewell for my float tube. I hope I can fit at least a limit of fat Hawgs in there for weigh in.

The wind was blowing like mad over there. There wasn't much of a derby. I backed out at the last minute for safety reasons. It is no fun tubing that lake with 1 foot waves crashing over your tube.
We'll just have to wait for the next tournament to come around.
That lake is so tempermental. Everytime I go there and don't take my float tube, there is no wind. When I do take my tube, the wind will kickup 5 minutes after I have launched.[crazy]
