Ultimately, the rain was just too much.
Initially, this week's Table Rock Bassmaster Central Open seemed threatened by record rains that rose the lake 10 feet in a single night. Then B.A.S.S. declared the tournament would be a go. But unrelenting storms forced B.A.S.S. to re-evaluate and now, according to tournament manager Chris Bowes, any re-evaluation is pointless: The Corps revoked all tournament licenses this week and the event is officially postponed, probably until the fall.
Table Rock is fast approaching its historic high-water mark of 933 feet.
Participating Open anglers will be contacted by B.A.S.S. in the upcoming weeks with full details regarding the rescheduling.
With more rain and another round of devastating, widespread tornadoes in the forecast today come prayers for the safety of folks everywhere.
