Rock -N- Reel Fishing Tournament

    The first annual bass fishing tournament for the Roane County CHamber of Commerce was held in October, 2007 with great success.  A $12,000 first prize was awarded with payouts awarded to the top 40 finishers with 100% payout of all entry fees.  The tournament drew fishermen from a five state area as well as across Tennessee. 

    A $1,000 prize was awarded to the highest finishing male/female team and an additional $1,000 prize went to the highest finishing youth/adult team.  The entire community held events on this weekend to entertain the fishermen and their families while they were out on the water. 

    The tournament is tentatively scheduled for the weekend of October 11, 12 in 2008.  Additional details will be announced as they are finalized.  For more information, contact Beverly Stroh at 1-800-FUN-IN-TN.
