              I'll plan to be there to help out at the weigh in. One note though, the camp is named "Blockade Runners"

                            Anyone out there interested in picking up a partner?? I'm new to the Houston area but have grown up fishing trout and redfish in South Louisiana. I feel like I can bring a lot to the table and am more than willing to put up my share of the tournament fees and expenses. Let me know if anyone out there in interested or if you know of somebody.

                            Thanks,
                            Adam
