Thanks Chad at Hook 1 for the gift cards to give away. Check them out at kayakfishinggear.com. Also would like to thank John Davis with Smallmouth Specialty and Hollow Log Cabins on Dale Hollow Lake. He was very gracious in donating a 2 night cabin rental to be given away at the first tournament on March 24. Check out their websites at smallmouthspecialty.com and hollowlogcabins.com for guided fishing trips and cabin rentals on Dale Hollow Lake.

We have joined the American Canoe Association as a Paddle America Club for 2013. As announced earlier this helps the tournaments in two very important ways by promoting the tournaments and providing liability insurance. They have also agreed to lower the cost of individual membership from $30 to $15. This will be a one time fee to join ACA. Memberships will be available at the tournament sign ups and they do include some really great discounts to several retailers. Hope to see everyone at the first tournament on March 24th at Guist Creek Lake. Come out and support HOW!

First tourney of the year has come and gone. Despite 35 degree temps and rain/snow mix we had 12 people come out and support SMACK and HOW! The fishing was tough with no fish caught by 11 am we decided to call it a day and head to Beef O Brady's for lunch. Hopefully the weather will cooperate for the next event and we will see some new faces. Mark your calenders for April 21st at Barren River Lake Brownsford Ramp.
