Hardware, Bass Pro Shops, Marathon Gas and Pacemaker are donating raffled items
after 1pm weigh-in for all Candlewick resident’s
The intent of this year’s tournament
is to recruit Candlewick resident fishermen with boats to participate in next
year’s event where they would partner with a Wounded Warrior during the fish
tournament.
Wounded Warrior fishing tournaments
are popular in other states, and we would like to show our support and
appreciation for the veterans as well. If you are an inexperienced bass
fisherman with a boat, and want to participate, we will show you some
techniques and locations to catch fish. You need a working live well or a
cooler with a battery operated pump. This is a great opportunity to give back
and have fun at the same time.
The same rules apply for this
tournament as the annual Candlewick bass tournament. Residents and guest of
Candlewick are encouraged to come down to the weigh-in behind the Rec center.
We will have a raffle of gift certificates from above sponsors after the 1pm
weigh in. Donations would be appreciated for the Wounded Warriors Organization.
All cash from tournament and raffles
will be counted out in public. I will write a check for the wounded warriors
representative.Any questions please contact Chuck Hart at bassmaster1211@gmail.com or 815-520-1796 <’)))><
Effective this year non-resident
boats are not allowed on Candlewick
