114 boats and 228 anglers converged on Cooters Pond in Prattville, Alabama for a day of fishing and fun! The event was hosted by BASS Founder Ray Scott and ESPN's "Bass Professor" Doug Hannon along with “Venture Outdoors” TV show hosts Don Day and Rick Redmon acting as event emcees.
The boats blasted off at 6:15 after a moment of silent prayer and the singing of our National Anthem. Weigh-in began at 3pm and family and friends turned out to join the contestants. Everyone enjoyed BBQ from Peppertree Steaks and Wines and live music by the Tom Williams Band.
Of course, the best part of the day was that 100% of the proceeds went to support the Joy to Life Foundation and our efforts to assist in providing screenings and early detection of breast cancer for the medically underserved.
Our sincerest thanks to all our volunteers and especially to tournament coordinators Boyd Hodge and Terry Mullins for making the Pink Lure Tour such a success!
