Title: Jr. Diabetes Research Foundation tournament went great!
Post by: Waterfoul on August 12, 2014, 12:30:52 PM
We had our best year yet.  20 boats, great sponsors, and we raised $900 for this worthy cause.  We raffled off some very nice items including a Shimano Crucial, a Partriot rod, lots of baits and even a whole pan of blonde brownies!  Everyone had a good time, and everyone caught fish, even the kids!  In my boat I had my friend Brandon and his 9 year old son Jesse.  Jesse caught our big bass and now he can't wait for the next tournament!  Again, thanks to all who came out and fished and these sponsors for their generous donations:

Dan Hatchew and Kustom Kicker Jigs
Al and Bob's Sports
The Outdoorsman in Jenison
Gander Mountain
West Marine
Jeff at Extreme Towing
Mootsies Sports Center near Greenville


Looking forward to next years event already.  We'll more than likely move it back to Reeds Lake where the fish are bigger (providing the construction on the road to the ramp is done!).  Wabasis has a lot of fish in it and everyone had a great time, but there's no substitute for big fish!  :-)
