RUSSELL PRIVETT TOURNAMENT
(For all NCBBA members and guests, with no fee to participate)
To encourage participation in the tournament and offer a greater opportunity for Junior Members and their guests, the NCBBA Board of Directors has decided to start the tournament on Friday, September 3, and end it on Saturday September 4, at noon.
In addition to this, the Board has added the John Overholtzer Junior Division. This change was made possible by the generous memorial gift made to the organization by the family and friends of John, whose wish was to help provide and encourage fishing opportunities for the younger generation.
An important change to the rules regarding the reporting of fish to be entered in the contest should be noted. All fish must be weighed at an approved NCBBA Weigh Station, with a slip obtained by the angler verifying the catch. This slip is to be turned in to the Tournament Chairman, Director Chris Worthington, before the Annual Meeting.
Prizes will be as follows:
- Member-Guest: Largest Slot Red Drum, $100.00, Second Largest $50.00
- Largest Blue Fish, $100.00, Second Largest $50.00
- Largest Mullet, $100.00, Second Largest, $50.00
- Junior-Guest: Largest Slot Red Drum, Rod and Reel, Second Largest, $25.00 gift Certificate
- Largest Blue Fish, Rod and Reel, Second Largest, $25.00 Gift Certificate
- Largest Mullet, Rod and Reel, Second Largest, $25.00 Gift Certificate
