Greetings all,
It’s that time of year again. This is your official kick-off email and invitation to OTCI 2024. Please feel free to forward this to any qualified (upstream) industry individual that might have an interest in joining us. We are proud to have TexasFlood as our Title Sponsor this year. Registration will be at Cassels Boykin pavilion from 3:00-8:00 PM on October 24th. Axio cased hole services will providing the food during the registration times. The tournament will be October 25th & 26th. This will again be a trailering event. Launch wherever you wish (on Rayburn) and weigh-in at Cassels Boykin. Fishing times are 7:00 AM – 3:00 PM both days and you must be in weigh-in line by 4:00 PM. Meals will be served immediately after weigh-in closes and door prize drawings will start as soon as possible after the food. ProFrac will provide the Friday evening meal and Downhole Chemical Solutions will provide the Saturday evening meal. Entry fees will remain at $275 this year and we are not limiting the field. Entry form and sponsorship form are attached. Both are also available on our website for print or e-registration. Any new sponsors would be very welcomed additions. Payout will be at a minimum of 100% of entry money and paid to at least 20% of the field. We will also pay 1st and 2nd overall big bass.
The website (https://www.trashmasterclassic.com) has been updated with current information and forms for 2024. You may register there with credit card or mail in the attached form with a check. We haven’t nailed down the price yet for shirts this year, but I hope to keep them in the $30 range. Shirts will be available at the pavilion all three days of the event, during volunteer work hours.
The Fishers of Men crew will man the weigh-in again this year. We will in turn make a donation to them for The Fathers Heart Orphanage.
Please thank all of our sponsors for their support and the Fishers of Men crew for their efforts. These folks make this such an enjoyable event!!!! We all look forward to seeing everyone.
Stay safe, God bless and tight lines.
