A Mostly Muddy Lake, Blue Bird Skies and Hot Temps Await LBAA Anglers

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Russellville, AR) – The second tournament of four regular season tournaments on the Lady Bass Anglers Association’s 2012 year is this week and Arkansas’ Lake Dardanelle is the destination.  Thursday, and Friday May 17 and 18 are the dates, as some of the best women anglers from around the nation will blast-off from the Lake Dardanelle State Park in search of a limit of bass from Dardanelle’s 34,300 acres.

The anglers of the Lady Bass Anglers Association find themselves facing a lake in which the main lake and some tributaries are primarily muddy with a lot of floating debris.  However, clear water is available in many arms of the lake and many creek channels.

In addition, the hot weather pattern residing over the Arkansas area the past couple of days will continue through the week.  A weak cold front passing through the area overnight prior to day one of competition will do little to change or affect that pattern other than to bring the possibility of a “pop up” thunder shower into the afternoon forecast.  Forecast highs for competition days will be in the upper 80s with little or no wind.

LBAA Invades Arkansas’ Lake Dardanelle A Second Time

PDF

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

(Russellville, AR) – The Lady Bass Anglers Association (LBAA) is set to return to Arkansas’s Lake Dardanelle for a second time on May 17 and 18.  Lake Dardanelle was the site of the LBAA’s first “official” tournament back in September 16-18, 2010.

Texan’s Debbie Kemp and Jan Bruner claimed victories in the LBAA Kick-off Tournament back in 2010.  Kemp won by the slimmest of margins as her 11.5 pounds was a mere 0.42 ounces more than second place veteran Emily Shaffer who brought 11.08 to the scales on the pro side.  Bruner a veteran co-angler caught 6.47 pounds of bass --- just enough to edge out second place Kim Giddens who had 5.42 pounds. 
With the lady's return to Dardanelle being a late spring event there could be both post-spawn patterns and pre-summer patterns that could come into play in helping to decide the Dardanelle Dash for the Cash next week.

Since this the second event on the 2012 LBAA schedule, a win or a good finish at Dardanelle would give an angler the “Big Mo” --- momentum that could catapult them into a successful home stretch run in the second half of the LBAA’s 2012 schedule.

Preparation of a Fishing Resume' and Approaching Sponsors Part 2

Thursday, 12 April 2012 08:27 | Written by Monica Altman | Print | E-mail

Altman

When approaching a sponsor one needs to be dressed professionally and cleanly groomed. Wear nice slacks (black, tan, or navy) and either your tournament jersey or a nice collared shirt. A sponsor’s first impression of you goes a long way. He or she wants to know that you would represent their company when fishing and promoting their products in a positive and professional manner, just as you did on your first meeting. It is all about perception and how people perceive you.

Anglers should learn all they can about a product, use it over a period of time and really like the product and know it works before asking for help from a potential sponsor. If you don’t use a product, how can you honestly tell others that it works and what the product is all about. How do you promote, if you don’t have all of the information that you need?
