2009 MAUMEE TACKLE / TOLEDO BASS DETROIT RIVER BASS TOURNAMENT

ONCE AGAIN WE DODGED THE FOUL WEATHER. THE WIND WAS 5 - 15 KNOTS N TO NW. MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES AND A COOL 60 DEGREES OUTSIDE. AT LEAST IT WAS FAIRLY WARM BACK AT THE RAMP. THIS YEARS ATTENDANCE WAS LOWER THEN LAST YEAR. WE HAD TWENTY-ONE TEAMS COMPARED TO TWENTY-NINE LAST YEAR. THE MOST WE EVER HAD WAS FIFTY-SEVEN TEAMS SEVERAL YEARS BACK. ANGLERS WERE TELLING US THAT FISHING WAS A LITTLE TUFF BUT NOT BAD. THE WATER WAS STILL OFF COLORED. AS ALWAYS, WE WENT THRU 160 HOTDOGS AND LOTS OF HOME COOKIES.
