Title: OPEN TOURNAMENT ON COLDWATER LAKE
Post by: squid on July 01, 2009, 01:52:31 PM
SOUTHERN MICHIGAN'S FIRST ANNUAL FALL OPEN

I am working on putting together an open tournament on Coldwater Lake for October 3rd.  I will get all the details up on the board here real soon.  But for now, check in starts at 5am and we will launch at 7 or safe light.  We will launch at the DNR launch site.  90% payback, team event, all cash.  5 fish total.

Like I said I am still working out all the details.  I am hoping to get plaques, but I am not counting on that.

Little over a month away and I have notice that some are finding the bigger fish already.  Should be a good weigh in with a mix bag if the smallies are on that day.

Never heard about it and the DNR never told me there was another tournament on that date when I first checked into it back in July.

That is not the same group. MATS = Michiana Anglers' Tournament Series. They do not have a website.

This tourney is going out of Lakedrive Marine.

Well the ankle is still sore and stiff, but coming along.  1 week to go and the smallies are biting.  Hope to see you there.
