NORMAN, Okla. (April 23, 2013) – The Texas Team Trail presented by Cabela’s will host its third event of the 2013 tournament season on May 4 at Belton Lake. This tournament will be the first event for the Texas Team Trail at this quality bass lake.

Registration for the event is already underway – anglers can secure an opportunity to pre-fish Friday, May 3, by completing their registration online or via phone prior to midnight on Thursday, May 2. All anglers that pre-register will also be entered into a drawing for a Power-Pole Shallow Water Anchor. The Fort Hood gate fee will be waived for anglers on Friday.

Designed exclusively for team competition, the event offers anglers an unprecedented opportunity in terms of payout, sponsor bonuses and television coverage.

The Belton Lake event is the third of four 2013 qualifying events. The first-place prize for this event will be a fully-rigged, Triton 18XS powered by an Evinrude 150 HO package, valued at $30,000. The first place prize, plus a budget-friendly $250 entry fee, plus multiple contingency bonus programs and over 100% payback leads to a buzz among Texas’ anglers. Sights are set on the new Texas Team Trail event on Belton Lake, as well as the championship tournament in October on Falcon Lake.

On-site registration is set for Friday, May 3, from 4-7 p.m. at Belton Lake Outdoor Recreation Area (BLORA). We ask that one team member attend. The tournament will launch Saturday, May 4, at safe light from Belton Lake Outdoor Recreation Area and weigh-in will begin at the same location at 3 p.m.
