In case you are not familiar, here's the entrance of Victoria
Landing where the tournament is launched.

One of the two parking lots at the Landing before the
tournament starts

The lots are then filled up quickly for the evening

The anglers then gather around and BS, uh, have an
enriching conversation session where fishermen
share truthful information, tips, and tricks of the sport

or getting things ready

Uh......

Some pray, some work on voodoo stuff, some sleep, some
spy on others for secrets.  This one is depending on the
charming of the Hula girl!

Fans span all generations.  Here are a couple of future
champs.

Then they launch for the 7 PM blast off

No, not UFO nor Christmas lights.  It's the return at 11 PM

And then they weigh in the fish

And here's one of many big bass of the night

And here's 3 of the 5 that made up that 15.62 lbs winning
sack by Patrick & Brandon Croft

And here's the other two.  For Allatoona, it's a huge sack!
And then the directors announce the winners and prizes.
