The 2009 "Original Redneck Tournament" will take place on July 10th & 11th at Bath, IL. Here's a link to the official site: http://www.lighthousetelevisual.com/11.html
The registration sheet is on that site. SIgn up for your heet early. There are two each on Friday and Saturday. Participants are also asked to get an Illinois Fishing License. In speaking with Mike Eigenbrod (site owner), he said you can get a three-day license pretty cheap. Registration for a heat costs $50 per boat.
Also, we were stopped by the Illinois DNR folks after we were going too fast near the boat ramp. There is about a 1/4 mile idle zone. The DNR folks were nice about it, but we were just excited to get our boat running!
Looks like another great year with plenty of events for kids and adults alike. It just continues to amaze me at how nice everyone is over there. This will be our third year and have yet to see anyone being anything but polite and just having fun. Granted, they may be dressed funny while celebrating, but that just makes it all the more exciting.
Also, we camp out and that costs $10. Well worth the experience if you like to camp.
This a one-of-a-kind event with great people. Plan on attending and having a great time.
