It's about a lotta good fun, some great comraderie...and a celebration afterwards where somebody gets to be a celebrity and win prizes:biggrin: Go for it!!:wink:Okay guys here's the deal. We have a cabin rented on Poverty Point Lake this weekend. The crappie are suppose to be spawning, moon is right, weather is suppose to be perfect.
A friend of mine called me this morning and said they were having a crappie tournament there this weekend open to the public. I'm thinking about entering the tournament.
My question is what is a fishing tournament about? I know nothing about fishing in a tournament. Can anybody tell me?
:fit:My kind of tournament you weigh the empty beer cans and fish together to determine the winner. :biggrin: Other wise known as a redneck fishing derby
You've got some good answers here.......

I can't wait. Never fished there but once. I MIGHT WIN A PRIZE AT HAVING FUN! What's not to love? :thumb:depends, usually there is a big fish pot and a prize schedule for big stringers. I always had to put in for whatever somebody else won. Then I found a bunch of people who couldn't fish and liked riding in boats and started winning some prizes.:biggrin:
I like fishing over at thompson pond. Biggest grinnell I ever caught was over there.:stooges: It was about 30" long and I caught it on 4 lb line. Thought I was gonna get my picture on the big board in the snack shop.

Bett,
I have had luck at Thompson Pond on shiners and Black Jigs with Chartreuse or Green Tails. Caught some nice ones around the marina and over by the graveyard. Lots of timber jut north of the marina looks like there ought to be a lot of fish in it. I just never got much chance to try it. My FIL caught a real nice one off the tree over by the fishing dock kind of NW of the Marina.
Just a warning, That place is about the snakiest water I ever saw. Needs a few Gators in it to clean em out.
Good Luck.
