The tournament out of Live Oak is scheduled to take place on March 1, 2014 and is the first event among five in the trail’s Southern Division. Other lakes chosen as Southern Division hosts are Lake Eufaula (March 15), Lake Jordan (April 19), Alabama River at Millers Ferry (May 10) and Lay Lake June 7.

Venture Outdoors TV Show‘s insight:

We are so glad to see that our local favorite lake, Lake Jordan is on this list. This tournament is expected to dump and estimated $500,000 into the local economy. "Anglers typically prefish or scout a location three of four days prior to a tournament, and during this time, they patronize restaurants, gas stations and tackle shops. During a tournament, approximately $300 is spent each day on accommodations, gasoline food and supplies," Donaldson said.

This is an amature tournament trail ONLY!!! It also includes stuednts fishing on high school and college teams, so get your registration forms in!
