Next up! Lake Anita on July 12. It lies in the same watershed area as Badger Creek. I put the boat in Saturday afternoon. The water was high with a slight stain. Visability was two feet.. The lake should be settled come tournament day, if it stops raining that is.. |

Badger Creek June 7. I am sure you have heard the saying "COME HELL OR HIGH WATER" well we lived the day! Several club anglers arrived Friday to explore and prefish for what was expected to be a tough tournament. Adding to the nature of the season (post spawn) we were greeted by flood conditions at the lake. 10" of rain had filled the lake plum full of muddy water. The conditions at shoreline at first glance looked to be encourging. With newly flooded grass, brush and willows out into 3 feet of water. The water level had crested and had begun to lower. Fish that should have been in the shallows feeding proved not to be there.
Saturday morning the water had dropped at least a foot, visablity was 4" at best.. Then add to it the 30 mph wind.. I am trying to set the stage here.. 16 anglers fished eight hours and carded four fish. The tournament was won with a one fish 16 1/2" fish. Second with two 12 1/2" ers. Third with one 14 1/2 er. We had 13 anglers tie for 4th place all with blanks. |

Lake Okoboji, May 17. We have never fished Okoboji this early in the season. We arrived to find the water bath tub clear with suki some 15 feet..The other observation was that there were very few weeds on the main lake.
15 members and 1 guest were in attendance for this early spring event. Our one day event neted 71 fish carded with 37 Missouri's. Only two fish (bass) were 18" or larger. The big bass of the tournament was a 19.5" largemouth caught by D Haneline.
Moose was able to sneak in with a win by scoring 1030 fish points. He had a limit of 5 Missouri's. Four of the fish were Smallmouth. His largest fish (tie breaker) was 17.5" sm.
MR Bass 07, Kozel (I like the way that rolls of the tounge..) Also scored 1030 fish points. His 5 fish were all largemouth. His big fish was 17.25"..
Third place was Cota. He also had a limit of Missouri"s to score 1025 fish points. Prentis had the great big fish of the trip a 50" Clear Musky that weighed 36. 15 oz. The fish hit a bass buzz bait Thursday afternoon. (You can see pictures of the fish in by visiting our photo album = Okoboji 08.. |

Brown Lake. April 26 (mid winter). We had 22 anglers show up to fish the eight hour tournament. We had 9 limits and 1 blank turned in at the end of the day. Carded were 3 fish 18" or larger. Big fish on the day was an 18.75" largemouth. Groff took 1st place with 5 Missouri's. He had the big fish of the day also. He scored 1345 fish points. This will be a tough big stringer card to beat this year.
Cota took 2nd with 5 Missouri's to score 1130 fish points.
Kozel ( MR Bass 2007) took 3rd with 5 Missouri's to score 1070 fish points while fishing as a non-boater. |
