People, if you've been thinking about trying one of these events, this is the one to try. I'm bummed my work schedule is getting in the way of it but this random draw put in makes this very interesting. The Cumberland varies greatly over it's distance so what works near OHD may not work near Shelby Park. There are some very big bass in that river and the KBFTN crew is a fun bunch to fish and hangout with.

We do have a lot of people who prefer rivers over lakes, and I'm one of them at times. WE had plans of adding more river events, but they have to be done on weekends due to time constraints. My schedule changed to where I work every weekend now, so we are looking to see what we can do with the 2016 schedule.
