BUMP on a log

Anyone who can help out with suppling a boat for the Kids to fish out of show up at the lake. This is a Trolling motor only lake so you won't be using any gas from your boat....Only got to use the gas from your tow vehicle to get your boat to the Lake.... See you all there on Saturday morning, before 8:00 am..... Let's all pitch in and help Eddie with the event...... I'm going to do my part......:)

Good luck at the "KIDS DERBY"

We had a total of 143 kids turn out for the Fishing for Kids event at Fagan Branch Lake on Saturday. Our winners for the Fishing for kids Casting contest are as follows: Brayden Thompson in 3-5 age group, Ashton Lanham in 6-9 age group, Buddy Bell in 10-12 age group, and Morgan Edelen in 13-16 age group. For the BASS Casting Kids competition the winners are in the 7-10 age group Keaton Vaughn and in 11-14 age group Shelby Goode. Michael Thomas Bertrand had most fish with 18 weighing 3 lbs 26 oz. Hunter Livers had big fish of the day with a weight of 1 lb 94 oz. Congratulation to all of you for your hard work and we hope you had a alot of fun.

Thanks to all of the sponsor's, and people that donated to the event without your help none of this would have been possible for the kids. They really enjoyed themselves and you made that possible. Thanks to all of the volunteers who came out and helped as well, again without your help this event would not have been possible. Thanks to the Mid Ky Bass Anglers for bringing their boats out and the many other boaters. All of the children are looking forward to next year already so if anyone would like to be a part of this wonderful event please let myself know. Thanks again to everyone.
