The tentative schedule is out for next year and like I had heard we in Illinois are left out. I don't know how they can call it a north region when Patoka and Ceaser Creek in Ohio are the only two lakes north of Kentucky Lake. Everything is very south and with gas as it is I am sure none of us will go to anymore tourneys. That is too bad I enjoyed fishing their tourneys and I know that Lake Shelbyville drew more entrants than over ninety percent of those tourneys in the south. Since the little town of Shelbyville won't put up the $6500.00 for U.S.A. to come back, none of us will see a tourney on that lake again. I mean how much do they need. They already get 20% of the field entry and pay back very little as it is. Second place is a slap in the face in those tourneys and won't pay for your gas home so I am done with them.
