Parker Cothell sets a Kids Fishing Day tournament
record with a huge 30.12 lbs. Blue catfish, and

temperatures, the turnout was great. Overall, 225

a grand total of 87.50 lbs.
We want to express our sincere gratitude for those
who sponsored this event. And to all our volunteers
and staff for making this tournament safe, fun, and
