American Bass Anglers Division 126 will hold a qualifying tournament May 13, 2017, on Stockton Lake, launching out of Old State Park. Twenty to 30 anglers are expected to enter the tournament. These anglers will fish for cash, prizes and points that will qualify them to fish the Stockton Lake Championship June 24-25 as well
Taberville Report By Linda McCallister Dains Fish Farm Well, if you can find a place to get to the water at Schell and down here at Taberville, in the back waters right before night, the smaller white cats are biting on nightcrawlers.
