Drayton's 10th annual Rod & Reel Rally Catfishing Tournament

Drayton's 10th annual Rod & Reel Rally Catfishing Tournament is coming up Saturday July 17, 2010 from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Hastings Landing Recreation Area in Drayton, North Dakota.

The Red River of the North’s only WHOPPER catfishing tournament promises to be the best yet with cash prizes to be paid for the six largest catfish and largest slot catfish, plus a special $30,000 cash prize to be awarded to the angler who ends the tournament holding a new North Dakota record channel catfish.

We’ll run a maximum of 60 boats. There must be at least 2 paid entries per boat, but each boat may carry as many entrants as it can legally hold. Early entry fee is $40 if postmarked by June 15. Regular entry fee is $50. Entry forms are available at Drayton’s Red River Resort and Bait 701-454-6184 and at KXPO Radio 1340 AM in Grafton, ND (352-0431). Entry forms may also be downloaded by clicking here. For information and fishing conditions, please call the resort, or the Chamber line at 701-454-FISH, or email chamber@draytonND.com.
