The tenth and final regular season tournament of the 2021 season was held on Goodyear Lake, October 3. Almost everyone caught fish, with 19 of the 21 boats weighing in a five-fish limit. Weights were very close, but Joe Bunzey (fishing alone) took first place with 10.43 lb. See results and standings for more details.
The last tournament of the year will be the Art and Nate VanSteenburg Memorial Classic, to be held on Otsego Lake, October 16 and 17, from 7 to 3 each day. Remember that you must have fished at least 6 regular season tournaments to qualify, and that the lake is "off limits" from the Monday before the tournament if you are going to fish. Entry fee is $120 per boat.
