The sixth tournament of the 2025 season was held on Oneida Lake on August 17. We were fortunate to have light and variable winds most of the day, but the fishing was slow for most. We were also lucky to finish the day shortly before a heavy rainstorm came through. As always, some were able to find the fish and the team of Matt Ford and Tom Testa took first place with a mixture of largemouths and smallies weighing 19.66 lb. Mike Wiggins took the lead for biggest smallie of the year, at 4.58 lb.

The next tournament will be on Otisco Lake, August 24.

Congratulations to Hunter and Lynn Baciuska, Susquehanna Bass Association Anglers of the Year, with a total of 143.72 lb for their best eight tournaments. In second place, Kevin McGibney was just 1.3 lb behind them. Hunter and Lynn had an outstanding year with two first place finishes (Mohawk River and Goodyear), a second place (Onondaga), and they were in the top half of the standings in each of the other tournaments. In addition, they weighed in 5-fish limits in all ten tournaments, and all 50 fish were released alive.
