I want to thank all of those that came out on saturday for the Big Bass Wanted tournament! We had 30 boats participate and over 50 anglers! Was a lot of fun. Congrats to Joel Ebert for being the 2017 Big Bass Wanted Champion! He won the event in the first period with a 4.95lb bass.

At the end of the day, we were able to raise over $9,000 for Feed My Starving Children. That is equivalent to packing over 37,500 meals for children around the world! Awesome job you guys! Could not be happier. Was really amazing to see people's generosity and kindness come out. Thank you all again!

Until next year!!
