Good morning all. There is a small adjustment to this coming Saturday's tournament. The launch ramp at Deer Creek is closed due to dock maintenance. We will be instead launching from Island Park launch ramp. Sign ups and check in will be from 5:30 to 6:00. DFW form 777 self inspection is required on board for the duration of the event. If you don't have one, there will be copies available during check in and livewell inspections. Please be expedient about launching once you are checked in. It is a single lane launch ramp and it will take some time to launch/load. We look forward to seeing you all there Saturday morning.
