Kurt and Ben get another classic win! They were able to be consistent with the changing conditions and how the lake fished day by day. This is the 3rd time our club has been here for a classic and it has fished differently each time. Great job to everyone who were able to make those adjustments day in and day out to get a check!
Thank you for everyone coming out this year to fish and support the club. We look forward to next year and hope for an even bigger turnout!

I know many of you Fans would like to know how the boys are doing in the Westside Championship. I talked to Dakota Byrd last night. He said Fricke & Aaron are in second with around 16 # and there was a team with around 17 # in the lead, but couldn't remember who. I know Money Marty & Mountain Dew Howie have 13.80, Dakota said most guys had about 12 #. Our future Elitist Dave might pull it off ! See you guys next weekend at the River & Brookville at the DMT Championship ! Dennis

Tomorrow 10/15/25 Tanners Open. (The Elitist) Dave Fricke will be there. I am giving out a special bonus of $100 (two $50 bills) of my own money to the team that wins and beats Dave Fricke (The Elitist) This will be on top of the first place $. BUT because I don't want to hear: He, or she or that team only won because they released fished. I am taking out the release areas, which are : Mouth of Tanners to the Rt 50 bridge, Big Bone : Mouth to the first creek past the ramp. Graigs Creek : Mouth of creek to first creek past the ramp. Dave Fricke can't win the $100 bonus, its there for the team who can beat him ! Sorry Dave you have won enough.
Now if Alex Redwine comes he can win the Bonus, but has to promise to room at one event with Fricke when he starts fishing the Elites ! This is our last Wednesday event this year, as Dave Fricke's press secretary, you know if Dave wins again you will hear all about it all Winter ! So lets have some fun. It looks like they might be biting too ! Also we are making our last regular season event OPEN this Saturday 10/18/25 at Tanners if you want to jump in ! No bonus on that one I have to work. See you guys tomorrow Dennis .
