I could not picked a better day for fishing Tournament. The weather at least looks good but alot of small crappie being reported caught at Perry.Will be taking entries uptill 9:00 am at the Perry State Park .

Not a lot of sun, wind from the east. Most fish caught around 20' +/-.

1st Beckwith/Lyon
2nd Morstorf/Funnell
3rd Brooks/Tryon
4th Huntsman/Skinner
5th Edwinson
6th Tyler/Cohen
Big Fish Frost/Rhoads

Some hotdogs off the grill, some good stories, a plan to do 'er again in early spring.

Not surprised to see those guys win. Usually do on Perry.

There will be tournaments next year, beginning early spring, at other local lakes. Any preferences?

Look forward to fishing in them.

The usual suspects, Melvern, Pomona, Clinton are good choices, but I think there should be tourney's on Fall River and Toronto. Never are and they produce the biggest fish in the state. I know they are smaller lakes, but maybe you set it up to first 15-20 boats signed up or something like that.

Anybody know the number of fish and what the winning weight was?

7 fish limit. Wgts. were 7.50 lbs., 7.31 lbs., and 7.16 lbs.

On Melvern Sunday talked to a few that fished the Tourney ,They stated if the bite was good they wouldn't be on Melvern .that says it all they had to work hard for there fish. Tyler stated the bite sucked for him.Randy stated he weighed in 51/2 lbs seven fish limit to the scales. Those 2 know Perry real well and are great fishermen.(Perry is not my choise of lakes to fish) at least till the winter bite starts.

Don I haven't talked to anybody that was at the tournament yet but I here you had a good turnout I had every intention of fishing in it but my partner couldn't make it and I was a little under the weather, but thank you for having it and congratulations to the guys in the money. What was the payout?
