Good luck taking off at 6:00 that late in August... probably not safe light yet.
Had plenty of light at 6am last year that late in August. Don't know why it would be any different this year.
Yeah, I guess it actually starts to get dark earlier before it gets light later (make sense??). Never been on any of those lakes other than Portage. Have a great season.
Thanks man. We are definitely looking forward to the 2013 schedule. You are right about it getting darker earlier. At that point in the year we have to start fishing 5:30 - 8:30 if we fish after the league is done.
We have created a website for our league. We have our 2013 schedule, fees, rules, and tournament results available on the site. Check it out!

We have been having an awesome summer so far with out new league. We have been averaging 15 boats every week, but we have had as many as 18 boats. We fish Thursday nights from 6-9 pm mainly in and around the Centerville area. We fish Klinger Lake this thursday 7/25. Entry fee is $30 per team. If you are looking for a week night group to fish with, come on out. We would love to have you! Hope to see you on the water!
