On Saturday November 16th we will have our next Kayak Fishing TN event. It will be hosted at Williamsport TWRA Lakes in Williamsport, TN. There is a $5 fee per person property use, and must be paid at the kiosk just past the concessions building. You are required to have a valid Tennessee Fishing License.
The mandatory Captains Meeting will be held at the kiosk just past the concessions office at 0600. At the Captains Meeting you will have a chance to ask questions in an open format, and all rules will be gone over, the meeting will last approximately 15 minutes. No entries will be accepted after 0630, and start fishing at 0700. Entry for the competition is $10 with big fish being an optional $5, and paid in exact cash before the Captains meeting.
(PLEASE BRING EXACT CASH)
After the Captains meeting you will be dismissed and able to fish any lake on the premises (Bluecat, Shellcracker, Goldeneye, or Whippoorwill (only if you are accompanying a youth 16& under one adult per youth for Whippoorwill). Check-in will be at the shelter located on Shellcracker Lake at 1400. This is where your photos will be judged, and monies awarded. Bring your own food and drinks for there is nowhere close to eat.
This will be a two fish CPR event catch photo and release. You can either submit largemouth or hybrid bass in any combination. The hybrid bass will have a multiplier of .8 so a 24” hybrid would equal 19”, and largemouth will have no multiplier. Only artificial lures may be used. The fish must be facing left, dorsal fin upward, mouth closed, and tail in the natural lay position. The bottom lip must be touching the zeroed mark of the measuring device. Lengths will be measured to the nearest 1/4” and must break the mark. Camera phones will be accepted. This is a paddle craft event only, no electric, or gas propelled watercraft, kayaks are preferred.
All anglers must possess a valid Tennessee fishing license, all anglers must have a PFD, and it is suggested to be worn at all times while on the water. If you would like to just come out and fish without joining in on the competition you are welcome to and will only have to pay entrance fee of $5, and possess a valid Tennessee Fishing License.
Williamsport Lakes are having a hunt this day, the lakes are open, but to warn you there will be hunters in the woods.
