There’s one tonight on Sinclair. Look up middle Georgia catfish anglers on facebook if you have it. They have a tourney once a month, and rotate between Oconee, Sinclair, and Jackson.

Thanks for the information, I’ll look into it. I’m not on Facebook, don’t like how they silence different opinions.
