The 14th annual Austin Peay State University Governors Bass Tournament will be held Saturday, May 10, at Kentucky Lake, with registration and boat launching from Paris Landing State Park. Last year’s tournament drew 259 boats and APSU is hopeful of topping the 269-boat record of 2006. Eleven thousand dollars in prize money will be awarded with a guaranteed first-place prize of $4,000, an increase of $1,000 from a year ago. Second-place is guaranteed $1,500. Third and fourth-place will receive $1,000 and $600, respectively. The top 25 places will receive prizes. Each boat also will have the opportunity to win a grand door prize drawing of $500. If the tourney winner is fishing in a Triton Boat, Triton Gold will pay an additional $1,000. For a third straight year, a MotorGuide trolling motor will be given away as a second door prize as well as a 150-HP Mercury outboard motor. The tourney will begin 6 a.m., although all contestants must be checked in between 4-5:30 a.m., with a mandatory meeting on the water at 5:45 a.m. Pre-registration entry fee is $100 per boat (two people per boat), $110 after noon, Friday, May 11. For entry form and more information call APSU at (931) 221-7024.
