2017 Season Update

Many have been asking about our 2017 schedule. We have decided to do a total re-boot of the XFL for 2017, and are going to announce some new exciting things here shortly. Those of you who have been around awhile will remember that all of the Oklahoma trails used to announce their schedules at the boat show…well, it won’t take us that long, but we still have a few things to work out before we can announce what the schedule is. I can answer the two most asked questions now…YES we will be back, and two…YES we are NOT cutting the number of events! Thanks for your patience, and have a very Merry Christmas!

XFL-Extreme Fishing League 2016 Championship

Three Forks reminders…

A few reminders about Sunday’s event:

* Registration will be done at the Marina store (Cool AC!) in the harbor starting at noon on Saturday. Its at the bottom of the hill from the big building. You can pull up to the gas docks and walk in.

* Take off will be approximately 5:50 AM. We will call numbers from the gas dock, then you will idle out to the River. If you stay in a slip or launch from the main river, come to the gas dock for boat check. Come by the dock driver side to the dock. Boat check will start at 4:45 am.

* Kim at Three Forks has the river level, river flow, and lock master phone numbers…feel free to call her.

* Boat slips are $10 per night while they last.

* There is plenty of parking on the main lot in front of the main building…use it. You can pick up your partner on the gas dock.

* FOLLOW the fish care guidelines posted on our web site!! Do not bring fish up to the trailer with water from the harbor…use your live well water. REMEMBER…there is a 1 lb per fish penalty for a dead fish.

Thanks for fishing XFL, and as always, call if you have any questions.
