skip johnson returned to the champion position fishing with LAPORTE with a big 24 pound 5 ounce 5 bass limit! Tougher job this year with the biggest turnout ever for a GreatLakesBass.com members tournament featuring 28 boats and a total of 58 participants! old$chool fished his first members tournament in honor of David 'MadWags' Wagensomer taking out Jay-MadWags and Liza Wagensomer - our special guest - to finish 2nd with another impressive limit of 23 pounds 13 ounces. Jay-MadWags landed 2nd big bass of the event with a trophy 5-3 smallies while overall big bass went to Eric and his 5-4 smallie! No 6 pounders this year but lots of 4 and 5 pounders!

The coveted Big Ugly fish award went to member BrianB for a 5-9 sheephead.

Jay-MadWags caught the 2nd big bass - this 5-3 Lake St. Clair smally - while fishing with old$chool and Liza Wagensomer during this first event honoring his best friend and Uncle David 'MadWags' Wagensomer

1 Big bass winner
2 2nd big bass

Someone turned in a no name weigh in slip that was so faded I couldn't read it though it looked like there were a few good weights on it if I guessed right. Mikesmiph? Must be because capt charlie's charters and jcheetam declined to turn in their weigh in slip (too many big ones I guess ;D ).

bassfan586 turned in a weigh in slip that was on its last leg. Barely... No Big Ugly award available for the weigh in slip unfortunately.

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

LOL Pen ran out of ink on the water. Got so busy cooking, forgot to put my name on it. Oh well.

djkimmel

No rest for the volunteers... ;D Looks like you caught a few nice ones anyway before you came in early to do all the cooking. I could probably have guessed your weight but I think I need a secret spy decoder, some lemon juice and quad-focals to read it correctly!
