Wondering if there would be any interest in a regular midweek daytime tournament on the Ohio River in the Evansville, Owensboro, Henderson area. Surely there are enough of us old retired guys or shift workers that would like a little friendly compitition. Lets hear from you.........
Don
I am not an old retired guy but I am a teacher with the summer off and have more sick days than I will ever need at work. I would love to do some fishing during the week. don't limit it to the ohio river, include patoka and maybe KY lake or Barkly.
I'm retired and I agree with skeeter. I'm not a river fisherman.
Guys theres very little difference in river and lake fishing. And there are tournaments galore on those big lakes. My thoughts were to have some tournaments within a reasonable driving distance. At $3 a gallon it can get pricey. But then if the river intimidates someone I don't blame them. :) If you don't fish the river your missing out on some good fishing......
The river is just fine with me but I catch more 6 and 7 pounders out of Patoka and KY. My biggest out of the river were 5 1/2 and a 5 with in an hour of each other at Rocky point. but come tournament day on the weekend nothing but little 11 and 12 inchers. - I would even go for bluegrass or Lynnville area just for the fun of it. especially if gas $ is an issue.
OK Skeeter, if anything develops out of the this I'll get in touch. I've made the gas a personal issue because I'm not putting any more $ than I have to in some sheiks account..........
Totaly agree. Not like I am $ bags or anything but man gas is big expense when you want to tournament fish. cost of gas is can be more $ than the cost to enter a tournament many times. And they say Golf is expensive. Fishing is the real mans rich sport - it is just has a lot of rednecks like me that want to try their hand in it.
