MCBC April 8th Open Tournament @ Marsh Creek

[G-man]

On behalf of the MCBC we would like to thank everyone who participated in our Spring Open Tournament held this past Saturday. Of the 32 boat field 11 boats braved the elements until the very end with 10 of those boats weighing in fish. Unfortunately neither mother nature nor the fish seemed to want to cooperate, which led to a much smaller weigh-in compared to our 2005 Spring open. A total of 20 fish were brought to the scales with no limits to be had. Here are the final results:

1. Ward / Hellmann 2 fish 7.78 lbs
2. Kousisis / Fulton 2 fish 7.11 lbs
3. Harsh / Crouse 2 fish 6.62 lbs
4. Patton / Ammon 2 fish 6.11 lbs

Lunker Kousisis / Fulton 4.69 lbs

A congratulations goes out to all of the winners and for the remainder of the teams that stuck it out to the end!

Please remember MCBC has one more open tournament scheduled for Saturday June 24th. It will consist of a picnic at the Lyndell ramp immediately following the weigh-in, featuring many many door prizes to be raffled off. So mark your calendars and join us for the day.

Tight lines!

Todd,
You are welcome and pass on a "big thanks" to MCBC for having an open tournament. It was my first one and regardless of the weather, I enjoyed fishing in it with Sam from Brandywine, one of the 10 boats to weigh in.

Would you have the complete list of the 10 boats with fish and weights? If you can and you want to e-mail let me know and I will send you my e-mail address.

Thanks again,
Jeff Sproule
It took awhile but finally thawed out!

Jeff,

I can post the entire list of boats that weighed in on this post. It will have to wait until this evening though because the list is at home.

That is a heck of a way to start tournament fishing! Can't say that I have fished in much worse! Glad to hear you thawed out!

Thanks Todd,
Look forward to seeing it, I appreciate it.
It had to be tough for those involved who ran the event. Hats off to all of you!
Jeff
