Congratulations again to Brad Kieffner and Billy Keedy. For the second tournament in a row they were able to bring in over 15 pounds to the weigh-in. This week at Peckerwood they put together a whopping 17.05 lbs that included the big bass of 4.21 lbs. In second were Nicky and Fuzzy Gates. They continued to fish well with another double digit sack (10.83 lbs) to secure second place. The third place team (Mike Warren and Chuck Coe) had a 10 pound sack as well. The turnout was a little low due to a conflicting tournament, but we still had a good tournament with 9 boats. Many fish were caught and everybody seemed to have a good time. I look forward to seeing all of you at the weigh-in on the beach in Jacksonport for the Portfest Buddy Bass tournament this coming Saturday.

Time for Peckerwood!

It is time to go fishing again. The plan is to meet at the Red Barn landing at 5:45 and launch at 6:00. Please remember that there is a fee to get into the landing. It sounds like we are going to have a decent turnout Saturday morning. Please give me a call if you have any questions. I look forward to seeing everybody there. Good Luck!

AOY Standings

Below are the current Angler of the Year standings (top 10). Please keep in mind that we drop the two lowest tournament totals for each boat at the end of the year. Also remember that the takeoff position for the classic will be determined by the AOY standings at that time.

AOY Standings:

1---79.64---Brad Kieffner and Billy Keedy
2---55.28---Nicky Gates and Fuzzy Gates
3---52.80---Marvin Ross and Raymond Bradley
4---46.90---Rob Hill and Dewight Jackson (Ratt)
5---46.05---Michael Brand and Nate Watson
6---33.61---Blake Anshultz and Doug Cockrill
7---31.02---Mark Clairday and Jason Denney
8---24.34---Brad Lewis and Dustin Roddy
9---21.37---John Reed and Brad Robertson
10--19.57---Mike Warren and Chuck Coe

These totals include the total weight of fish that have been caught by each boat plus the total amount of place points they have received for each tournament. The total weight of fish weighed is very important. There are only three boats in our club that have more place points than total pounds. For each tournament that has 20 fishermen or more the following points are awarded:

1st place---20 points
2nd place---10 points
3rd place---5 points
Big Bass---5 points

Our next tournament is scheduled for Saturday, May 29 at Peckerwood. We will use the Red Barn landing and probably start fishing at 6:00 am.

Congratulations to Brad Kieffner and myself (Billy Keedy) for hauling in over 15 lbs of Lake Conway bass to become the Lake Conway tournament champions. We were only able to catch 7 keepers, but the 5 best were quality fish. Second place belonged to Doug Cockrill by himself. He secured second with a nice sack of bass at 13.35 which was aided by a monster 5.37 lb largemouth. In third was Michael Brand and Nate Watson. They were looking for that final keeper to put them in the hunt, but the four nice fish that they brought to the scales were big enough to put them in the money.

We had a long day of fishing in the cool wind, but numerous boats caught some quality fish. We had 9 of our 16 boats catch over 8 pounds and seven of those were over 9 lbs. The tournament seemed to go off without incident and we once again had a nice crowd.

Lake Conway Tournament (Remaining Schedule also listed)

We will be putting in at the Palarm Creek Landing of Lake Conway Saturday morning. It looks like the weather is going to be beautiful, so hopefully the fishing will be as well. Please be prepared to leave the ramp at 6:00. If you could get there by around 5:30 or 5:40 it would help. So far this year, things have worked really well. It sounds like we could have another good turnout. I look forward to seeing everybody early Saturday morning! Call with any questions (512-9400)
