Cannot wait to see some people we have no seen in awhile!

Definitely looking forward to seeing old friends and making lots of new ones this year!
There are plenty of reasons why you should come out to a Wed Nighter...Lake Austin eye candy (aka Radar), big fish, nice payouts, good people, cold beverages and did I mention Lake Austin eye candy?! The list goes on and on but the one overwhelming factor is the fun. I've seen these tournaments grow from 5-7 boat jackpots to an amazing 29 boat field last year! This tournament format is one of the most fun events I've been to and has a little something for everybody.
For die hard tourney anglers that love the competition but need a break from the grueling 8 hour, rule infested trail events, we provide a competitive environment that allows you to fish against some of the best sticks in the Austin area while enjoying your favorite iced down beverage. We came up with a very simple set of rules to keep the tourneys laid back while still remaining fair.
For any new comers to the tourney scene, this is one of the best ways to cut your teeth in the field of competitive angling. Fishing these events will give you an affordable way to fish competitively, against the clock and other anglers, and allow you to hone the skills that every successful tournament angler must posses - decision making, adapting to the changing conditions/patterns on the water, time management and learning how to win.
These tournaments are also a great networking tool for anyone new to the Austin area. Anybody that has been to a Wed Nighter can tell you we are not a bunch of ego driven anglers that stand around looking down at everyone else and keep to ourselves. Our goal with these events is to know everyone on a first name basis and have a good time. To be honest, I have just as much fun meeting and catching up with everyone during registration and hanging out after the tournament under 360 as I do while actually fishing. And sometimes the fishing actually sucks and all I'm looking forward to is heading back to 360!
So if you are on your way out for the first time, we are pretty hard to miss. As you pass Ski Shores and come around the bend to City Park, look for all the bass boats beached up, people gathered around with their favorite beverage in hand
and the gold pole with the dancing girls and the soon to be three TTZ 2009 Legend Alpha 211s with Merc 250s.
It's about that time...Go Big or Go Home!
