Smalliebigs Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Is anyone on this forum planning on fishing the River Bassin Tournament that is in Rogers, AR 06/04/2011 ????? I am fishing in the Rogers, AR stop and the Frankfort, KY stop 04/30/2011. I am fishing in the Oakley Big Bass Tour event by KVD @ Table Rock on 03/26/ and 03/27 also.I f anyone here is fishing any of these events please pm me I would like to meet some forum members if they are going to be at these events. I think a lot of guys here would actually like the River Bassin Tour event, they are very diferent from your typical tournament on a lake to say the least. The KVD event @ Table Rock is a little early and can pose some weather propblems but, all you need is one big hawg!!! My team is goofy we are try to catch the biggest Smallie we can @ the Table Rock event but we will not turn away a big green bass.... not with a $45,000 rig on the line. I hope some guys here will try the River Bassin event, they are pretty cool. I think some of you guys and gals would enjoy it. Scott
gotmuddy Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 I am intrigued. tell me more. everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.
Smalliebigs Posted February 17, 2011 Author Posted February 17, 2011 I am intrigued. tell me more. Muddy, I figured you would know about the Riverbassin Tour.....go toMy link This was started by Drew Gregory and basicly the event in Rogers, AR will be held @ Lewis Clark Outfitters.The rules are pretty simple....you must measure your fish and take a picture of them on a recomended measuring defice.They take the total measurement of three fish and pics, there must be pics of the measurement.The thing I like about Drew and the Riverbassin tour is they are adaptable on the fly and make adjusments to the tour based on the location.For example the Rogers,Ar stop I heard they are going to allow other species to be measured such as trout, even though it was designed for bass.The part of the tournaments I like, which lends to locals winning these events is that you are allowed to fish several designated streams within 50 to 90 miles of the event location.At the weigh in's they have a huge BBQ and a nice spread of food, we go over the pics and locales of the catches and lures used.That part is actually way more fun that I thought it would be. They are cool events, if you ask me and way less stressful than the Tournaments I used to fish. You should try that one Muddy, it's the closest they have had an event to me.You would have a big local advantage I would think????? I fished an event last year and the winning fisherman had 58 inches of Smallies, not bad???actually I think one fish was a Shoal bass not as impressive as a feat as if it were a Smallie. also Diablo Paddle sports, Jackson Kayaks, and NUcanoe are contributors and you win their kayaks....I really want to win a Diablo, chupacabra...they are friggin sweet!!! a little heavy but sweet!!!!
Smalliebigs Posted February 17, 2011 Author Posted February 17, 2011 sorry Muddy, I didn't know if the Riverbassin intriqued you or the Oakley tour??? the Oakley KVD event is for amatures only and is a one fish big bass wins deal.There wil be hourly prizes that are pretty sweet for biggest fish and overall big fish wins a Nitro Z9. @ Table Rock 03/26 & 03/27
hoglaw Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 I just put it on my calendar. This sounds like a blast. There was something in the rules about "no natural lakes or beaver ponds." Does this mean all impoundments are out and it's only flowing waters? Why didn't they just say it that way? Also, I couldn't find the boundary map of the fishing territory.
gotmuddy Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Also, I couldn't find the boundary map of the fishing territory. thats what I am interested in. If it is as the crow flies I can fish CC. If so then I am wanting to enter. everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.
tjulianc Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 It seems like the Buffalo has got to be within the boundary, its the crown jewel of the Ozarks. And if it is then, CC should.

I personally believe CC is better, but I haven't fished the upper reaches of buffalo. everything in this post is purely opinion and is said to annoy you.

RSBreth Posted March 3, 2011 Posted March 3, 2011 I passed the word along to Drew to get the map up of what the area the tournament will cover. Depending on what's O.K./off limits I may do this, too.
