Tennessee Trading RMOG Summer Series
Where else can you competitively fish 21 Thursday nights for a hundred bucks? Bring a buddy and compete as a two-man team in our Summer Points Series sponsored by Tennessee Trading!
These 3-hour Thursday night bass tournaments have a 3-fish limit. Each team’s top 7 event weight totals are added for the team’s Summer Series total. Prizes are awarded to the top 30% of teams and are determined by entry fees and sponsor participation.

Don’t want to compete, but still enjoy the fellowship? No problem; non-competitors are always welcome to fish for fun and enjoy the fellowship. A brief devotional and prayer follow weigh-in every week! First tournament is April 3rd. Series awards will be presented at the Series final event on August 28.
