The walleye fishing on Pool 10 was tough for our club anglers for our September 15th tournament. We had 14 boats entered into the tournament and only 6 boats were able to bring fish to the scales, with 5 of those boats weighing only one fish. Although the fish were not jumping into the boat the weather was beautiful and it was great day to be on the ol’ river.
Finishing in 5th place with one fish for 1.14 lbs was the father/son team of Todd & Harry “NTC” Borwig. Finishing in 4th place with one fish for 1.56 lbs was brothers Tom & Dave “Busch Light” Merron. Finishing in 3rd place with one fish for 2.68 lbs was the husband/wife team of Matt & Derise “Happy 10th Anniversary” Vlasak. Finishing in 2nd place with one fish for 2.94 lbs and taking big fish honors was brothers Larry & Jerry “Were going to the Casino” Schilling. Taking 1st place with a nice basket of 3 fish for 6.44 lbs during a tough bite is the team of Doug & Lynn “Angler of the Year” Bonwell. Thanks to all the anglers for fishing the tournament and supporting the club!
For the Multi-Species tournament we had a total of 31 anglers and a lot of fish brought to the scales. Seems the bluegill, crappie, and sheephead are biting on the river. Also, we had another great meal catered by Brenda Jochumsen with help from Carole Schilling. THANK YOU VERY MUCH BRENDA & CAROLE AS WELL AS THE JOCHUMSEN & SCHILLING FAMILIES!!! Below are the results and thanks to all the anglers for fishing and supporting the Cedar Valley Walleye Club! The clubs total take for both tournaments was $426!
