The anglers were met with cloudy, cool weather, with strong Northeast/East winds.  By weigh-in the clouds were replaced with sun and temperatures in the low eighties.  Rob and Sandy had their establishment, Fletch’s Reel’em Inn, open for coffee and use of the restrooms.

Thirty one teams competed in this event, bringing 111 Bass weighing a total of 254.92 pounds to the scale.  Local favorites on this lake took first place honors with a 5-fish bag of largemouth weighing 16.84 pounds.  They were followed closely by the 2005 Wisconsin Team circuit “Top Team”, Chuck Postle and Cody Landt, with a 5-fish limit totaling 16.03 pounds.  Big Bass honors went to the team of Nick Zimbauer and Travis Zimbauer, with a 4.48 pound bruiser.

This event ended the 2006 qualifying tournament season in the Bill’s Series.  Bear’s Series ended 2 weeks ago.  Those teams that finished the season with 300 or more points in either Series, qualify to compete in the 2006 Wisconsin Bass Classic, to be held on the Lake Minocqua Chain, September 20-23.  The qualifying anglers will compete for a total purse of over $17,000 in cash, making it one of the largest single Bass tournament event ever held in Wisconsin.

Congratulations to the team of Wes Haney and Barry Rettke for winning the “Top Team-2006.” title.  Wes and Barry will fish for free in the Bill's Series in 2007.
