The 3rd Annual CAT Crappiefest Tournament is set for Saturday, April 2, 2016 at the Minnow Bucket on Lake Fork.

A record $14,000 in cash will be up for grabs this year!

This is a "big fish" tournament where each angler weighs in only one fish. 1st place will pay out $5,000, and the top ten places will all pay out cash. The entry fee is only $50 per person. You do not have to be a member of CAT to fish this tournament, and you can fish from a boat, the bank, a dock, a kayak or a tube. All anglers of all skill levels have a chance to win. There are also cash payouts for the fish weighing closest to 1.00 pounds, 1.25 pounds, 1.50 pounds and 1.75 pounds, and if your fish hits the exact weight of 1.00, 1.25, 1.50 or 1.75 pounds, you double your winnings! You can register for the tournament at any CAT monthly meeting, by mail, or at the Minnow Bucket the evening before the tournament or the morning of the tournament. All the tournament details are available online at www.crappieanglersoftexas.com.

And most exciting of all, there is a $4,000 cash bonus for anglers that weigh in a 3 pound + crappie. If you are the only angler to weigh-in a 3 pound crappie and you are a CAT member, you will walk away with $10,000 in cash. No tournament in the country offers anglers of all skill levels the opportunity to win so much money for a single fish, so be sure and fish CAT's 2016 Crappiefest Tournament.
