Our round 11 event in September took us back to the home pond at Coosa Landing!! Neely is really cranking out some nice ones for the guys that work hard!!! Our Winners are very familiar with being at the top when we stay in Gadsden!!!! Father/Son duo Tim and Zack Porter started their day much like they always do, but then realized the late season bass were really conditioned. So they hunkered down with flipping sticks and picked it apart getting a limit of nice ones!!
Congratulations to all our guys that scored!!

1st place: Tim and Zack Porter
2nd place: Stan McCurdy Jon McGowan
3rd place: Kelly Stephens Bobby Tallant

Our round 8 took us back to very familiar waters for most of our guys, Beautiful Weiss Lake out of the canal!!! And to no surprise again, Tim and Zack doubled up to make it back to back Wins on our upper coosa river swing!!! They are always hard to deal with here with their dirt shallow approach, and we think at times that they must have mini X tracks under the hull of that Big Ranger!!!! LOL
The fishing was extremely tuff, but another Great day of comradery for our group!!!!
Congratulations to these guys listed!!:

1st place: Tim and Zack Porter
2nd place: Cole Jennings and Ben Wainwright

Our Round 5 event took us to South Sauty on the Big G!!!! Couple of our younger members showed up and showed out at this one!!! Congratulations to Cole Jennings and his prospect Ben Wainwright on taking the Win and to Cole for caughting the Big Fish of the day and of the first half of our season!! Cole collected an additional Cool $750 for first half biannual Big Fish pot!!!! Upon interviewing Cole, he said that Guntersville was not at all his favorite lake, but I say that didn't keep him from bringing a large Bat and knocking this one out of the park!!!! He and Ben treated it like home and got up against the bank and fished around bass beds and bluegill beds, which put the rest of the field to bed also!!!
Congrats to all our guys that scored!!!

1st place: Cole Jennings and Ben Wainwright
2nd place: Jeremy and Cody George
3rd place: Brian Hatch and Stan McCurdy
Big Fish: Cole Jennings 6.23lb. LM

Our Round 2 event took us to World Renown Lake Guntersville!!! Always a Great time with this group and G never disappoints!!! However it was a little harder than usual this time with the bass being in a bit of a prespawn funk it seemed!!! Our very own Billy Short, veteran tournament angler and Custom Rod Builder was the one to unlock the puzzle on this day by finding just a couple spots where the Bass were stacked just on the corner of the entrance to their spawning areas!! Billy eclipsed the field by caughting all those found Bass on his favorite ALABAMA Rig!!!!! Congratulations sir and to our other Great members listed here that scored!!!!

1st place: Billy Short (solo)
2nd place: Tim and Zack Porter
3rd place: Dalton Payne and BJ Cranford

Round 1 January '25 took our guys to beautiful lake Wedowee!! We have started our season there the last few years and Wedowee never disappoints, until this time!! Must have been bad timing and conditions this time as our guys experienced a real grinder!!! There were only 2 limits brought in which is very abnormal for our group!!! However, sometimes a grinder makes for a good tournament!!! Congratulations to our members that scored a check!!!

1st place: Scott Wheeler (solo)
2nd place: Tyler and Carson Layton
3rd place: Tim and Zack Porter
Big Fish: Cole Jennings 3.58 spot

We are now interviewing our Winners at each event as we are a share club and adds to our great comradeship!! And as we said before, anytime there is something special or exceptional that happens at our events, we like to showcase it and our member!!! This time it was our Winner Scott Wheeler!!! As previously mentioned, it was a super tuff day for all, except for Scott!! Upon interview, he reported that it started off very tuff with no bites for more than the first half of the day, then after much running and gunning, he landed on a group of spotted bass that acted like they were raised in a farm pond!!! Scott said he lost count at about 40 fish boated!!! Congratulations again Sir on a Win well deserved!!!!
