McALESTER — Head to Eufala Cove Saturday to take part in a night-time fishing tournament. There will be a $20 entry fee per person.

There will be a four-fish limit and no dead bass will be accepted.

All boats will take off at 5:30 p.m. from Rock Jettie and weigh-out is at 12:30 a.m. Get there early as there will be no late entries taken after 5:30 p.m.
