West Division
2005 Tournament Results
Bone Lake Produces Fireworks; Some explode, Some Fizzle
The July 2 Fishers of Men Wisconsin Tournament was one of feast or famine.
The Warners Dock duo of Mike Mattis and Ken Snow had been a little quiet so
far this year, but they blew up the 40 other teams with a 18.46lb. string
of bass for the win. A cool spring and windy weather made conditions a bit
tough for everyone, but deep weeds and rocks with a 3/4 oz. All-Terrain jig
and a 10" worm were a key for Mattis and Snow. There were a high number of
0 or 1 fish bags brought to the scales. A broken down trolling motor in the
morning prevented Wes Haney and Barry Rettke from possibly taking the win.
They ended up with 14.52lbs. for 2nd. ISG jigs in the same size with Compers
twin trails helped them boat their bass. Greg Wandschneider and Dan Bialucha
were on a similar pattern to take 3rd with 13.92lbs. Patricia Davis caught
a 4.53 largemouth for the MG Lures Big Bass.
For the 3rd straight year Georgetown Lutheran Church was the site of our meeting
and dinner. The ladies there outdid themselves again by serving a marvelous
spaghetti dinner. Paul Johnson, our speaker, gave a riveting story of his
"near death" experience after being electrocuted. 5 people at the meeting
then decided that they wanted to accept Jesus as Lord in their lives. Our
4th event will be on Long Lake near Sarona, WI on Aug. 6. The pre tourney
meeting and dinner will be announced soon on the www.wifom.com.
This will be a combined event with the WI South division and it will offer
you the opportunity to again sign up for both tournaments as was the case
for the Mississippi River tournament. Please send your entry by July 29 in
to:

fees in on time. A $25 late fee will be assessed. Lastly, check www.fomntt.com
