“When we started planning our first open tournament in January 2022, since COVID hit us all, we didn't have the highest expectations. Most of us expected 30-40 entries, with difficulty obtaining sponsors. I'm very happy to say, we were proven completely wrong!"
Our community stepped up, and we had an AMAZING group of sponsors to help us make this the best open tournament yet! We want to express our extreme gratitude to all of our sponsors!
We had a total of 82 paid entries! 2 youth anglers even paid into the pot! We had an additional 10 youth fish, making it a total of 12 youth! And 81 anglers enter the big bass pot! A grand total of 92 anglers were on the water Sunday!
We had a total of 151 fish brought to the scale weighing 521.93 pounds! The average weight coming in at 3.46 pounds! (Can't say ol Lake Stamford doesn't turn out some big bass!)
Y'all, this is HUGE! COVID hit our little club hard! We haven't been able to host any fund raising events since 2019, and our club funds were dwindling fast!
Congratulations to all of the winners! It was a great time for all!
We are all looking forward to next year! I promise it will be bigger and better than this year!"
