It started out cold around 48 and by the time we got off the water it was in the low 70's. And there was quite a pile of clothes sitting on my seat by the time we headed in to the ramp.
The MLF format counts every fish over 10" including slot fish. We fish three rotating sections on Lake Fork every other Thursday daytime about 22 times a year..
Members must fish at least 8 tournaments to maintain membership.
Like the Major League Tournament format they go thru several ways of eliminate anglers to get to their championship day. We do it a little differently because we don't start with 30 anglers. All of our members can qualify for the semi-final by catching 6 LB in one tournament during the year or by fishing 80%. So today we started with 13 boats each with a boater and co-angler. Right now we have 20 members on leave due to covid 19 precautions. On the morning of we picked 1 of 3 sections. The final will be held in one of the other two.
We fished section 2 for today.
