MEETING!!!

We will have a meeting at Iberiabank (next door to Wal-Mart) at 6:30pm on Tuesday, December 13th.  This meeting will be held to discuss ideas for the upcoming season.  We will not set the fishing schedule.  This meeting could be very important for the future of our club.  If you have any ideas on how we should handle our tournaments or club going forward, PLEASE SHOW UP!!!  If you don't come, then you don't have the right to complain.  Anyway, RATT said to be there, so be there!

2011 CLASSIC RESULTS

Congratulations to Ricky and Bobby Gates for winning the 2011 Jackson County Bass Club Classic Tournament!!! Their victory propelled them to the Anglers of the Year Championship as well. They were able to surpass Brad Lewis and Dustin Roddy by 6.01 points. We had another wonderful year, and I look forward to having another great year next year! I talked to Ratt and the plan right now is to have a meeting in the next few weeks to decide everything for next year.

I would like to thank everybody for the participation again. I really hope that next year we can keep the numbers up like they were this year. We averaged 17.83 boats per tournament. The most boats we had a tournament this year was 23 and the least was 14. We had 17 boats or more in 8 of the 12 tournaments.

The competitiveness of our club is great, too! This is the second year in a row that our AOY has been decided by less than 10 points. Out of 12 tournaments, we had 9 different boats win at least one tournament for the year.

FYI: If you are interested in fishing another local tournament this Saturday (Nov 4th), Rick Sampson called me to invite anybody from our club to fish at Tulot (7:30 am Saturday).

I hope that fishing with the Jackson County Bass Club has been as much fun the last few years for you guys (and gals) as it has for me!!!
