Western Branch - 9 July 05
Bob & Jon take first Nick & Rob with 2nd Jim takes 3rd
- Well it was a tough day of fishing for sure. First no limits brought to the scales, matter of fact. If you had two fish you were doing something. It was windy, bluebird skies and was it ever hot, easily into the mid-nineties. The conditions vary with the wind throughout the day, water temp started at 80 and quickly rose to 84. We accomplished a first at a Bass-Jon's tourney with a single fish took Lunker and 1 st place. The few fish that were caught, had reports a couple on top water, crank bait and the rest on some sort of soft plastic . The sunfish, yellow perch were very active. It's the time of the year to get some red wrigglers, crickets and bring the kids out and let them have a ball. Complete set of pictures on the Tourney Results page.

Burnt Mills - 25 June 05
Matt & Steve with 1st place Jerry & Jim take 3rd
Bob & Roger take 4th place
The day started out with a fog bank and turn sunny and warm. Light winds, air temps in the eight's , water temps started out at 80 and reach 85 by days end.. The real surprise was the water color, never seen Burn Mills so green and almost murky. The further you went back the clear it got. Reports at the ramp had the fish being caught on a variety of baits, but Senko seem to be a name heard more than others. The winning weight of 16.10 was taken by the team of Matt Whitwell and Steve Loveless, most of their fish came from the Gambler Baby Bacon and Bacon Rind. A special thanks to Tim Ackal, Charley Workman and Gambler Lures for supplying the club samples of their products.

Lake Prince - 11 June 05
Well it didn't rain and now I can say it's summer time. Water temp started at 77 degrees, wind mild and air temp in the high 80's or low 90's, but the sun made it feel worst. But that didn't stop 19 boats from Bass-Jon's to compete in the June event. The weights brought into the weigh in were decent for the weather conditions. The favorite bait of the day, Senkos, flukes and worms. Most of the big fish were caught just minutes before the tourney ended. Just goes to show, fish to the last possible minute. The Lunker of the Day was taken by Jesse Munden was landed at 3:40 and Matt Whitwell landed his 5.02 fish at 3:30.
