The Southern Classic was a HUGE success with a good number of fish caught.
The Average weight per fish was a little over two and a half pounds.

The Palisades Resort, along with the owners, was a very wonderful place to
host a tournament. We had slips for the boats and never worried about
locking our doors at night, or while we were out fishing. Steve, the guy
that runs the place was always very friendly and willing to do whatever it
took to make us feel welcomed and comfortable. The place was so well
stocked, that we really didn't need to ask for anything.

Lake Barkley gave up some nice fish for all of us during the days before the
tournament, even with the bluebird skies and lack of wind. Below though, is
the final results of the 2006 Southern Classic.

I'm getting the website updated to show everyones final results and to add
the million pictures that was taken, but it will take me a little while to
do that. Please visit: http://www.midtennclassic.org later to see the final
tallies.

Thanks Everyone!
