Tuesday, August 4, 2009 at 8:11PM John Peterson from Northland Fishing Tackle and I took third place at the recent Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship at Rainy Lake. It was my best finish in this tournament so we were pumped! www.canadianbass.com
Wednesday, July 15, 2009 at 5:37PM Chris Savage and I sky-rocketed from 32nd place after day one to 1st with a day two catch of 20.20 pounds. Our two-day total of 35.74 pounds earned us $12 000.
Tuesday, June 16, 2009 at 8:12PM Last week was really fun, I got to spend a few days on the water with Dave Mercer from Facts of Fishing.
Unfortunately the weather was tough on us, but we caught some fish and had a good time. I think I dressed warmer for four days last week than I did for the last four days of ice fishing! The weather is back on track now and it looks like summer is finally here AND the fish are biting!
Friday, June 5, 2009 at 10:42AM Dave Bennett and I won our first bass tournament of the year, May 23, on Falcon Lake in Manitoba.
We caught about 25 keeper bass, mostly on #8 Rapala X-Raps and 3 inch Northland Slurpies Grubs (White).
Dave caught the big bass of the tournament at 4.05.
A good way to start the season!
Monday, May 18, 2009 at 5:25PM Dave Bennett and I just returned from Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin where we were fished in the Sturgeon Bay Open this past weekend on Lake Michigan.
Despite some tough weather last week, Dave and I both managed to catch our biggest smallmouths ever weighing 6.23 and 7.36 respectively. (shown in the photo below)
Day one of the tournament was cancelled due to high winds so it was a one-day shootout. We took ninth place with a 6 fish limit weighing 28.20 pounds. Pretty good day of fishing!
