Entrants may launch from any site on Greers Ferry lake. Awards ceremony, weigh-in and cook out at Devils Fork Park Tournament Facility, Greers Ferry Lake beginning at 2PM.
Purpose of Tournament
Take as many White and Hybrid Bass out of the lake as possible. The White and Hybrid Bass populations are out of control on Greers Ferry Lake. They eat a substantial portion of the bait fish in the lake. If we can remove many of both species, we should be able to have more bait fish for the Walleye, Crappie and Bass. This is a catch, clean and cook tournament. Fish will not be released back into the lake!
What Are We Doing With the Fish?
“The Other Side” a Men’s Drug and Alcohol Rehab Ministry in Wilburn, AR will clean the fish. They will keep some of the fish. The remainder will be donated to Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance. You may keep your catch if you like.
