Only opening weekend of deer season if you are in Arkansas, correct? I like the spacing myself, and of course locations. Both should be good events.96 Eyra/12 Mercury 175 Pro XS with 2015 single axle trailer2017 Victory Gunner

We stayed at Bridge Bay 2 years ago for the Sealy Big Bass tourney. My brother and his best friend that passed away last week, plus some other friends. Nice location and quiet.96 Eyra/12 Mercury 175 Pro XS with 2015 single axle trailer2017 Victory Gunner
I stay at bridge bay quite a bit. Its a nice place with plenty of lodging and in a great location in the center of this big lake. Ill do all I can to make it this year. I have only fished Toledo once at this time of year but it should be fun!!Chris CoupelPaulina, La.Chris CoupelPaulina, La.
Id like to make it this year too but already committed to the LSU vs. Ole Miss game. Maybe next year for me. This looks like a good event for sure and everyone should enjoy it immensely. Thanks to Phil and Basketman (and others?) for doing the leg work.Everyone should believe in something. I believe Ill just go fishing!
I am ready. I booked a lakeside cabin today.
