After evaluating all tournaments through out the season it always comes down to the Championship.Due to other championships and trying to work around the fall holidays, deer season, and other circuits, we needed to change the date. to October 13th & 14th, 2018.I hope this doesn't inconvenience anyone and am looking forward to beginning the season. 

Due to the National Youth Fishing Association (otherwise known as Teen Anglers) changed their initial schedule and scheduled their Missouri division championship on the same date as the Grand Lake event. I am a HS Fishing Adviser and know I didn't want to step on any major youth activities. Fishing or Deer season. Thanks for understanding. This being the end of 2017 and a new beginning around the corner in 2018, I want to wish each of you a Happy New Year and lets go Fishing!!
