Championship Details

Our Championship is here and we are ready to crown a new champion. We are waiving our traditional two day two lakes event structure to help angler save fuel and combine resources. Both days will be on Hudson lake at the Snowdale State Park ramp. The weigh-in will be held at the Bunker inside the District in Pryor (map). Check-in will be done on the honor system. You must stop fishing at 3:00 PM and be checked in at The District by 4:00 PM to present your fish for weigh-in.

Day 1: We will have our traditional weigh-in process where you weigh your fish and take off to prep for day 2. No payouts will be made on this day. The Fat Toad will be open for any refreshments you may need.

Day 2: We will have food music and the fat toad will be again be open during the weigh-in process. There is seating and covered areas for you to set down and enjoy the event in style while we process all the results and finalize all payouts. In standing tradition there will be pulled pork cowboy beans and your choice of coleslaw or macaroni salad.

As is the tradition we will be serving great barbeque again this year and the menu has been upgraded for your dining pleasure. Day 1 we will setup a minimal event and have the results posted before we leave the area. If you want to leave after you weigh your fish please feel free to do so. Online registration will be cut off on Thursday 8:00 PM in order for us to process all the payments and have the deposit in time for payout on Sunday.

If you need to pay for the side pot alone you will have to come by the ramp at Snowdale on Day 1. Side pot will be for both days and will be paid to the highest finishing team that joins. Lowest total weight will be paid to the LTW for both days and we will pay a Big Bass for each day.

Jerry Patton and Eddie Norris crush Hudson Changing the AOY race for 2020

The MidAmerica Industrial Park Team Trail presented by BaitmastersOutdoors and powered by Pro Guide Batteries started off hot. It was literally the hottest event we have fished this year. Hudson Lake is one of those lakes that just fishes well in the heat.

Jerry Patton and Eddie Norris slammed the scales with 23.16 lbs in 5 fish taking home over $1100 and the side pot total of $1780. This first place win puts them in good AOY contention for the rest of the year.

Brent McClintock and Billy Fuller landed the largest bass of the tournament, 5.58. This is their first big fish win of the year.

We still have to mention the Lowest Total Weight. Chris Hall and Stan Day got the Lowest on a single bass that weighed 2.04 lbs. and got paid $100.00

We want to thank all the teams that participated, and for taking such good care of their fish in this strong Oklahoma heat. The Pelican Coolers held up again with over 200 door opens and ice remained when we left. We will have pictures posted soon and look forward to seeing you next on Lake Tenkiller July 10, 2021 for our first All-Nighter !!

Brandon Phillippee 1st Place 5 fish 16.95 lbs

Brandon Phillippee and Tony Grubbs break down a stingy Grand Lake O' the Cherokees

The MidAmerica Industrial Park Team Trail presented by Baitmasters Outdoors kicked off today with nearly every team looking for a single bite. Leading up to the event most anglers were in serious panic mode, as the bite had become so tough even professional anglers questioned their positive mental attitudes. March is always a good month to fish the Grand Lake chain with all the giants coming up for their annual spawn.

Water temps were in the low 40's but the ambient temperature was a smooth 68. That warming up of the air sure does a lot for your patience in these scenarios. The wind remained calm and let the anglers pursue each and every cast as they desired. With a five fish limit most angler new the struggle was real and decided to fish anyway.

Brandon Phillippee and long time CoAngler Tony Grubbs have always been in the hunt for AOY and have finished in the mix for the Bassmaster Team Championship fish off several years in a row. This may just be their year as the dropped the net on 5 fish weighing 16.95 starting off the 2021 season with a W.

Zach Vankulen and Brandon McDonald followed up with a second place finish bringing in 5 fish that totaled 15.62 anchored by a 7.77 toad.

The Bill's Marine Lowest Weight Award of $100 went to James Reib and alternate Jeff Taylor on a single largemouth bass that weighed a final 1.34 lbs.

Overall this opening event went off really well, and we are looking at a solid season ahead.

Up next we travel to Mannford, Ok to Keystone Lake where todays teams that struggled will be looking for redemption.
