Greers Ferry #2

We will launch from Devils Fork this Saturday morning for our third tournament of the season and our second on Greers Ferry. We will leave the ramp at 6:30, so please try to have your boat on the water by 6:15. I still hope to have the pictures from the last tournament loaded soon, but we have had some technical difficulties. Spread the word that we are fishing Saturday and it is supposed to be a beautiful 85 degrees! I hope to see 20+ boats again! BK

Congratulations to Bill Wooten and Kenneth Youngblood!!! They were the only pair that brought a double-digit sack to the scales. Their 5 fish that weighed 11.31 beat the field and secured the Norfork title for them. Second Place went to Doug Cockrill and Dennis Browning. They braved the weather for a near double-digit sack and held on for a second place finish. Michael Brand and Justin Doyle binked their way to a third place finish with 5 fish that weighed just under 9 pounds. Kenneth Haney brought 4 largemouth to the scales that averaged 2 pounds apiece to take 4th. The monster fish of the day went to Kris and Kevin Jackson. During a tough day on the water, they were able to bring a 4.19lb largemouth to the scales. Congrats to all of you!
It was a terrible day for fishing, but there were a number of fish caught. We had a motor that wouldn't start, a person falling in the lake, a carp in a boat, numerous rain showers, many numb fingers, and one wild looking pair of boots (Raymond Bradley)! Again, thanks to everyone for toughing it out at Norfork. It says a lot for the club when 18 boats will show up and fish knowing the weather is going to be bad. See you soon!

Norfork (Jordan Landing)

We will launch at 7:00 Saturday morning from Jordan. Please try to be there by 6:30 or 6:40 so we can get out right at 7:00. Be prepared with warm and dry clothes because it looks like we may get some showers Saturday. Sorry I am posting the launch time so late. I totally forgot to update the website. I hope this didn't inconvenience anybody! See you all Saturday.

Congratulations to Nicky and Fuzzy Gates! With 22 boats leaving the ramp this morning, it was going to take a nice sack of fish to win. Nicky and Fuzzy brought that nice sack to the weigh-in! Their 11.76 pounds were good enough to hold off Jordan and Jerry Walker. The Walkers had 4 fish that included the big bass of the day.....a 5.65 lb largemouth. Third place went to Rob and Ratt. Their 9.76 pound sack was aided by a healthy 5.38 lb largemouth. Bobby and Ricky Gates didn't bring a 5 pounder to the scales, but they did bring the only other 5 fish limit which was good enough for fourth.

We had a tremendous turnout today for a February tournament, and there were some nice fish brought to the scales. I would like to, again, say welcome back to everybody and welcome aboard to a few of you knew guys that fished with us. We already have 44 members, and I am sure we will continue to add new members in the next few upcoming tournaments. Pictures should be posted in the next few days. Hopefully there will be numerous other pics added to our Facebook page (Jackson County Bass Club) as well.
Thanks for participating and please pass the word on about our club. It looks like we have another good year ahead of us!
