We will not participate in the slot limit under 12 inches!      40mph speed limit!  Culling must be done upon the catch of fish number 6.  Please make sure you have read the club rules and are familiar with them.  There have been a few updates since last year. 
Directions from Terre Haute:   (according to mill creek's website) take Interstate 70 west about 18 miles to the Marshall, IL exit.  Take Route 1 South to Route 40.  Turn right on Route 40 and go about a half a mile.  Look for the brown Mill Creek Park sign on the right.  Turn right on the Clarksville Road. Go about 7 miles.  The park is on the left. You will see a small portion of the lake from the road.
Upon arrival at the ramp please check in with the officers.  Pay your entry fee ($70) and/or optional big bass pot ($10) to Jason Smith.  Make sure you are marked as paid.  After you have paid see Brian Hollis to draw your launch number .  If you wish to participate in the optional $10 rollover big bass pot see Rick Ray.  Mike Botos or another officer will be checking live wells.  If you are fishing by yourself please have someone launch your boat immediately after you have paid and received your launch number.
Pre- tournament meeting will be by or at the docks.  Size limit, off limits, 1st place auction, what's considered a live fish, and other formalities will be addressed here.  If you are late for the meeting it is your responsibility to find another member on the lake to have your live well checked before you begin fishing.  You must also indicate at this time your intent to enter either big bass pots.
We will be weighing fish from the water this tournament.  Please bring rope and bumpers for the docks.  Remember officers will weigh first and then we will call teams in sets of 3 to 5 via the megaphone.  Please do not bring your fish to weigh in until your team number has been called unless you have a stressed fish!  Mill Creek will not allow more than 5 people in line to weigh fish at one time.
