Mississippi River (Pools 9&10)


33 Teams fished for $11,565.00 in cash and weighed in 352.08 lbs at the first, Outlaw Rods/Hawgz Bass Series Open tournament.

The teams launched out of Harper's Ferry with the extreme clothes on and started stripping down before they hit the water as the weather man was wrong again! It was 54 degrees, cloudy with calm winds and 55 water temps at blast off.

The fishing was good as 25 teams turned in full limits.

The team of Kevin Fassbind and Brady Farrell turned in the BlueWaterLED.com Big Bass of the day at 4.60lbs and that was worth $150.00 in cash and a set of BlueWaterLED Live well light set and a top 10 for finish for there days efforts.

Finishing 7th. was the pit boss Bill Sutten and Matt Hatland of team Diamond Jo Casino with a wt. of 13.78 lbs.

The 6th. spot was real eye opener, Scotty Sheckler and Chase Clausen of Team Cabela\\\'s with a wt. of 13.94 lbs.

In the 5th spot was Rick Miller and Gary Schreiner with a wt. of 14.26 lbs.

The 4th spot belonged to Scott Gartner and Dan McGary with a wt. of 14.42 lbs.

3rd in the order was the father and son team of Sam and Jeff Ritter with a wt. of 14.64 lbs.

2nd place today was the team of Matt Goltz and Kevin Schalts with a wt. of 17.18 lbs.

And just edging out the second place team by a few clicks of the scale was the 1st place team of Ben Droessler and Todd Treat with a $5000.00 wt. of 17.48 lbs. Great job guys!

We would like to thank everyone that attended the first Hawgz Bass Series Open tournament!

A special thanks go's out to Brannon Hilton and Marv Sieler of Team RSC Equipment Rental and Parris Humm and Nick Siepker of Team Outlaw rods for all the help putting on this event.

Boat Registrations Not Due Until 2010
Posted: March 24, 2009

DES MOINES - Boat owners in Iowa are reminded that their registration renewal is not due until April 1, 2010. Iowa's 232,000 boat owners will either receive a reminder in the mail from their county recorder, or by publication, alerting them when their registration is due.

In 2007, the Iowa boat registration process switched from being due in odd numbered years to a three year cycle and any boats purchased during the cycle would receive a prorated fee to complete the cycle.

An article in the current edition of Iowa Game and Fish incorrectly stated renewals were due April 1, 2009.

A few weeks back the Dri-Duck company was kind enough to send a jacket to me from there new 2009 line up.

I have purchased Dri-Duck products in the past and have been very happy with the high quality of their products.

Well I was not disappointed with this "Latitude" jacket. The fit was perfect and was very comfortable to wear. Not to mention stylish enough to wear out on the town The Latitude has ample pockets throughout as well as being wind and waterproof.

I would recommend the Latitude to anyone looking for a light weight weatherproof jacket.

This lightweight waterproof jacket keeps out the wind and rain without compromising your comfort or mobility. The Latitude allows you to enjoy the great outdoors no matter what Mother Nature throws your way.
