RE:Newman Lake Open Tournament this weekend!!

Well, the 1st Annual Newman Lake Open Tiger Muskie Tournament is complete. We had a great time. Several fish were caught, including a 46", 45", 30", 28" and an unverified 37" fish. Of course the 28" didn't count, but I thought it was worth mentioning in the overall results. Stand by for pictures to come on our website. It was tough fishing and hot. Thanks to Craig for organizing the tournament so well. Everything went smoothly! (despite someone being late!)

Great job!!!

That's #1 for, Chapter 60, the Mountain Muskies! I wish I could have been there, but I'm sure our two "jet setters" from Chapter 57 kept you busy anyway...LOL... I had a great time going to and from Sea-Tac Airport on this end!

I can't wait to see you all at Curlew in Sept!...Tell Mel to bring the pies....yum:chef: It is going to be a blast!!!!

Here are the results from the 1st annual Newman Lake Tournament for chapter 60. Herb Zielke and Don Grove came in first with a total of 85" and the biggest being 45"x19.5". Second place went to Alishia Garrison and Mark Kendale with a total of 46". Alishia's fish of 46"x20" was also the big fish of the tournament, Alishia is the daughter of chapter President Craig Dowdy and secretary Melodie Dowdy. Third place was raffled off and went to Chris and Chuck Gades. We had a total of 5 tigers caught 1 of which wasn't verified before it self released itself. Melodie Dowdy caught a 26" Tiger that wasn't a legal fish in the tournament but still a Tiger, she also caught a 26" Pike. We had a sucessful raffle after all the fishing was all done. I want to thank Jani and Tammy for coming all that way to represent chapter 57 and support our efforts. We cant wait till next year to have our next tournament. We will be supporting chapter 57 and their tournament schedule for the rest of this year.I want to thank everyone in chapter 60 that helped put this together without everyone working together it wouldnt have gone as well as it did. Chapter 60 Mountain Muskies also adopted its new logo, hopefully soon it will be posted on our website for everyone to see, thanks Alishia for putting that together. I want to Thank Newman Lake Resort and Marina for allowing us to have our tournament there and for the great bbq afterwards, your the best. I would also like to thank the following sponsors for their support of us at this event: AX Tackle,C.S. Lures, Tackle Industries,Blade Runner Tackle,The Musky Shop,Norisada Baits,Warehouse Sports,Cabelos,LAX Reproductions, and Roundtable Pizza. Without their support our chapter couldn't afford to do any events, so THANK YOU.......

The tournament was great! I could not be more proud of Alisha, and her father! He is a great teacher and she evidently is a great student. It seems like everyone had a great time at the tournament and the Muskie were very cooperative. All in all a great fishing day and what a way to start out with Chapter 60!!!!!!!
