RIDGELAND, MS, USA, October 17, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The National Crappie League (NCL) is thrilled to unveil its upcoming crappie fishing tournament at Ross Barnett Reservoir on October 21 & 22, 2023. Set against the picturesque waters of Ross Barnett Reservoir, this event is not just another fishing tournament; it represents the growing professionalism in crappie fishing and its symbiotic relationship with local tourism.

The NCL's commitment to raising the bar in professional crappie fishing is evident in its well-planned tournaments, competitive spirit, and community involvement. This particular event, being a wild card, promises a 100% payback (no guaranteed payout for wild card tournaments), and an additional $1,000 (for Division 1) to $2,000 (for the Open Division) prize for the day's biggest catch.

Ridgeland MS, the host for this event, has been instrumental in making this tournament possible, showcasing how sports and tourism can collaboratively benefit both sectors.

"Ross Barnett is among the premier fisheries in the country, boasting both black and white crappies. With its diverse fishing styles, river system, and expansive lake, it's the ideal location for our inaugural wildcard event." says Jeremy Mattingly, Executive Director of the NCL.

Attendees can expect a seamlessly organized event. To make the event family-friendly, a delightful Kids Rodeo is scheduled at Madison Landing on October 21, ensuring a day filled with fun for everyone.

Media professionals are cordially invited to cover this significant event, witness the collaboration between NCL and Ridgeland MS, and explore the myriad opportunities it presents for both the sport and the region.
