Central Illinois Crappie Club held its fall meeting last night. Rather than go into full detail in this writing I would ask that you go to CentralIllinoisCrappieClub.com and check out the news page as it will give you all the detail of the meeting.
We would like to use this venue though to congratulate some of our Illinois teams that finished in the top 10 of the Crappie USA Classic that was held last weekend on Patoka Lake in Jasper Indiana.
On the Amateur side of the contest.
Brent and Danny Whitecotton of the HOI crappie club slugged it out with the team of Rick and Cassandra Barnes of the Central Il linois Crappie Club. Rick and Cassandra had the lead after day 1, but Brent and Danny came out on top with a very nice weight of 11.65# great job you guys Danny has worked hard to win this and you could not ask for a better guy to come out on top. We also had a local team of Frank and Deb Revell finish in 8th place and Jeff and Joe Schrader of the Central Illinois Crappie Club finished in 9th.
On the Semi Pro side of the contest.
Kyle Schoenherr and Rodney Neuhaus came in with an impressive weight of 13.39# and led the pack. What an accomplishment especially after just winning the Crappie Masters Classic a couple of weeks before. Excellent job to you guys as well!
Congrats to all and way to represent Illinois!
