There is a BASS Major going on this weekend at Lake Dardanelle, maybe I will cover it tommorrow.

Fantasy Bass Update: Looks like the Potomac did the BP1 in as far as winning the MN Fantasy Bass League. I am behind the leader by close to 300 pts because of the Potomac. Overall for Dardanelle the results are ok, BP 1 has 3 anglers in the top 12 cut.

Elite Potomac Day Final

Congtatulations to Skeet Reese on the victory that almost certainly bags him Angler Of The Year honors as well.

The Bass Pundit blog has reached it's 20,000th visit. I think I average somewhere around 25 visits a day.

BP vs. Duffman
Once again this week I did not get out so if Duffman did it's all tied up for the summer. Wow what a contest. I think we have both fished only 1 of the weeks.

Pro Bass Fishing:
I was totally asleep at the wheel this week and forgot about the BASS Elite at the Potomac River. I didn't change up on the Fantasy Teams and am getting pretty much killed because of it.

Fantasy Bass Fishing Notes:
Day1 was terrible. Day 2 saw quite a bit of improvement. Kennedy and Roumbainis who are on both squads are in the top 12 but those are the BPboys only top 50 guys. BP1 has 4 of 5 in the top 50. Hopefully Day 3 will be as good or better than Day 2.

The Million Dollar Man

Scott Suggs of Bryant, Ar is the first ever winner of a million dollar pay day in Professional Bass Fishing. He won it on his home lake, Lake Ouachita.

As it turns out I will NOT be a guide with G.E.M. Fishing Camp this week, therefore I won't have done it this summer. Maybe I will get out and fish this week.

BP vs. Duffman Week 10

Once again this week I did not get on the water so if Duffman did, it will be his week. And it is!

Wow I haven't been paying attention to the Bass fishing world. This week is the million dollar Forrest Wood Cup at Lake Ouachita. Click on BassFan for more info.

On the 35W Bridge Collapse:
Wow who would have thought something like that could happen without a major triggering event such as an earthquake or a bomb. Simply unbelieveable. I consider it quite amazing that more were not killed and seriously injured. In college I used to travel over this bridge quite often, but I haven't really had a reason to go over it in several years.

And to those who would use this as an excuse to make partisan political attacks or call for the raising of additional taxes. You SUCK because you have no shame!

Bass Major Onondaga Day Final

Fantasy Bass Fishing Notes: Well the day did not go as I hoped as Wolak really stumbled. I ended up with a 1,2,5 and 2,5,6. Kennedy had a dead fish penalty that relgated him to 2nd so BP1 really was unlucky today. The BPboys ended up with the 9th best line up of all players. Not bad, but not good enough for a prize.

Fantasy Bass Fishing Notes:
If only the tournament ended today. I have a 1,2,3, and a 1,3,5 line up therefore all my top 12 guys are fishing the top 6 tommorrow. Hopefully Wollack can hold on, Kennedy can move to 2nd and then either Peter T or Lintner can come in 3rd. There is definitely a shot at my best score of the year and I think prizes are in play.

Eddy's Launch with Dad.

The only fish of the trip for us.

Dad on the way off of Sherman's Point.

The Story: The weather was sunny mid 90's with a slight wind. We elected to fish out of the back of the launch again and where fishing out of the Flagship which is Eddy's Biggest Boat. The Bait Boy said the Flagship was the biggest launch on Mille Lacs and probably the world.

We headed out from Eddy's on a long haul north to Sherman's Pt. We set down in 8ft of water and before you could say fish on some lady caught a keeper walleye and then a 2lb smallmouth. Sherman's point turned out to be more of a smallie than walleye or perch spot. Dad had the first bite and it was a nice smallie that jumped and broke dad's line. More than an hour later dad got another bite but didn't convert. Right after Dad's miss my bobber went down and I landed a walter. This was to be my one and only bite. All in all at Sherman's 6-8 smallies about 4 walleyes (3 Keepers) a few misses and 1 perch. At about 8:30PM we headed out deeper to try and nab some deeper water eyes. In this spot Dad maybe had a bite but I'm skeptical. Out in the deep water 2 walters came in and 1 was lost by the lady right next to Dad.

We were in right at 10PM. The other 2 launches were nowhere to be seen. All in all a nice night but I could have used some water to drink, the two pop's didn't keep me adequately hydrated.

Fantasy Bass Fishing Notes:
A rough day for BP1, it's gonna take a miracle on days 2 and 3 to get the team on solid footing. Bpboys have Hirosky, but after that it is pretty sparce.

BASS Champlain Score, Overall Place, MN League

FLW: DR score, DR Place, Overall Place

2 BP's Dad 817, 147, 677

6 Schmenzig Bassmen 651, 1356, 310
7 Bass Pundit 1 649, 1375, 532

I am not sure but this may have been the last FLW Fishing Challenge stop. If so it was a very mediocre year with BPObro being the best team but not even cracking the top 100. I think Cyb's showing at the DR was one of the only two Top 100 showings all year. Definitely an off year for the posse.

Sullivan Lake with Jeff:
Jeff's first fish, a Larry.
Finally a pike.
Last fish of the day, a foul hooked Pumpkinseed.

The Story: Jeff arrived a little after 3PM and we were on the water right around 4PM. We headed to the South end of Sullivan to try for some Pike. We started out fishing in the wind and weeds and had no luck. Finally as we got out of the wind I brought in a little Pike. A lot of the water on the SE side was barren of weeds. When we finally hit a patch of good green weeds Jeff brought in a 13" bass on a spinnerbait. We fished this area for a while but didn't get anymore bites. I missed a bass off of the last dock we went bye.

At a quarter to 6PM we headed to the North end of Sullivan to try some reeds in the wind. We did one drift through and Jeff caught a small pike and the pumpkin seed. We called it a day right about 6:20PM. Not a great trip but not a skunking either. Where have all the Pike gone?
