IllinoisBasser Posted July 29, 2008 Posted July 29, 2008 Last year we started putting on Tournaments on Washington Co. lake. It is a 10 horse lake so anyone with a larger motor is trolling motor only. You can use your big motor to trailer your boat and if you have a small jonboat like many of us do. You must at a minimum have a cooler with an aerator. These are low entry fee($20) with a 100% payback. $5 optional Big Bass sidepot. 5 bass limit per boat with a 14 inch minimum. Last year a few of us started throwing $20 bucks in the hat and held 2 tournaments with a 5-10 boat turnout. This year we are going to have 3 tournaments and see where it goes. At some point I would like to see this blossom into a small horse lake tourney group. There are a fair amount of horsepower lakes in Southern Illinois that would make it worthwhile. Please email tsweet@gatewayedi.com with any questions. Quote
