F.D.A. organizes six Bass fishing tournaments each year on Central Florida lakes.  A disabled angler is paired with an able-bodied boat captain. However, even though the two fish together, their catches are kept separate because each is fishing in a different division. The disabled angler competes with the other disabled, as the boat captains compete with other captains. The anglers are allowed to choose their partner in advance or pick one on the morning of the tournament.   Even though Florida Disabled Anglers  includes this sense of competition the main objective is still provide quality fishing to those who otherwise would not be able to or would have difficulty participating in such an event.  The objective we like to use is Fun; that's what everyone has, and it can be seen in the smiles on their faces. It is a joy that is shared by the disabled and captains alike. Membership in the Florida Disabled Anglers is free to anyone wishing to join us, and the fun is free, but worth a million. Once you fish the first tournament you are a member. So we would like you to join us, or if you have a disabled friend you would like to take fishing please call 352-267-5933 or 407-321-2043 or visit our website.   http://www.disabledanglers.org/

I just purchased a new group 27DC Duel Purpose marine battery through Advance Auto and got 35% off just by ordering online and picking up at the store! As long as you have an Advance Auto near you and you can pick the battery up, this is a great deal and is ready to be picked up an hour after ordering! Start by clicking the link below, then do a search for marine batteries. You can be specific if you want a group 24, 27, 29, 31, or 34 and they also carry Optima Gel Batteries too! Click on the battery you are interested in then click "check store availability". Different stores have different battery sizes in stock so you are bound by what your nearest stores have but most seem to have a good stock. The 24 and 27 group batteries seem to always be in stock. The batteries are Autocraft and I have had really good success with these in both my boats and SUV.  After you choose your battery(s), go to check out and use one of these promo codes: "WD3" will get you 35% off through Saturday Jan 18th. After that, use A124 to get a similar discount. JUST ADDED: Use "TRT41" for $40 off $100! If you order one online, they will charge you a core fee of $18 but just bring your old battery in the store with you and they put the $18 back on your credit card. Here is the link:

If you are battery illiterate, the "group" is a basic size measurement with 24 being smaller in actual size than 34. The most important measurements are the CA's and CCA's or Cold Cranking Amps. The 27 group battery I purchased has a CCA rating of 600amps and a CA rating of 750amps. The group 31 has 675 CCA and 840CA. The size of your battery and amp rating should be dependent on your engine size and how many accesseries you are powering and for how long without charging. 

Any problems or questions just drop me an email at bradb@flbasstournaments.com

From Team Fishing Series Website:

Okay guys and gals. It pleases me to announce the following:  Team Fishing Series and OGS Tournament Trails have united as one great tournament trail. How great you ask? The big news is that TFS has made it possible to add $10,000.00 to a now established classic going to be held on the September 20, 2014. All aspects of the OGS will remain the same except for the advent of the now $10,000.00 Classic!!!! Wait it gets better. We also have another $10,000.00 to put towards the qualifying tournaments which will be scattered out during the year. I have worked hard for you in assembling sponsors and organizing and I assure you, there will be more announcements to come. Stay tuned.

All TFS tournaments take place on St John's River out of Crystal Cove Marina.
