Zac Sexton Right now that’s all we are planning for. There is a chance we can do a reservoir near Clear Creek, but we haven’t finalized it, yet.

Luc Martin Do we have to fish the comp the day before to fish in this one

Zac Sexton Luc, that is ideal so our numbers stay the same, but maybe we can get someone to fish the other event. It's not required. Also, we are looking at some other lake venues, fishing from shore.
