Some of our members fish the ABA district 32 (KY and Barkley Lake) but we decided those would be too far for most of our members for qualifying events eventhough I would love to fish there for one of our club tournaments. I believe (if any other school will contact me and confirm it) that the Bluegrass Booyah Tournament is going to be on Barren 6/25, so hopefully we can get a good crowd together for the weigh in. But that is as far west we go with the club this year, maybe different next year?

Right now trying to get this instate rivalry tourney up and rolling, and maybe seeing if someone wants to put this thing on(it will be an anuual thing), looking for sponsors who are interested, I'm sure news stations will cover it, they will cover any UL UK rivalry. The CBAA said soemthing about it but I can not get a strait answer from them, it would be a great promotional event for a company, especially a Kentucky based one. The company would do the entire tournament procedure, weigh in, trophies, door prizes etc. and they can set up all banners they want(they would definately be getting some great publicity, plus this thing is going to last forever, just starting it up is the hard part). So if anyone is interested in working with us let me know. And Kyle, get back with me asap, I know finals are going on now but the sooner the better so we can discuss this. Thanks,
