Bass Tournaments in NE Ohio do exist. Largemouth, Smallmouth and Spotted bass are all fair game here in Ohio. We have lake maps, hints on tying knots for your lures and tournament information. Photo pages and a discussion board are also included in this site, so check it out!
My little escape from reality...
Sept 13, 2009
Could not have asked for a more beautiful September day to be out on the lake. Cool morning and a warm afternoon. The fish seemed to agree that it was too nice to mess with any lures!
The morning started out good, within minutes of our first stop we get the first keeper in the boat. Just barely a keeper, but it was a keeper! Unfortunately we would not get another until we had only 20 minutes or so of fishing time left.

Finally, an update for the 2009 season!!!

This season promises to be an enthusiastic and unprecedented season - fishing in the BadBassChamps circuit (formerly known as the Norton Bass Circuit). It promises to be bigger and better than ever!
Last year Fin Feather Fur Outfitters sponsored on of our qualifiers as a no entry fee tournament. The have come back this year and agreed to do it again! Nowhere else will you find a qualifying tournament with NO entry fee!
That's right, you fish the first 4 tournaments, spend $50 as Fin Feather Fir Outfitters and your entry fee is covered for the July qualifier at Mosquito Lake.
I don't understand how anybody would choose to fish any other circuit if they are only fishing one this year!
Visit the BadBassChamps website and download the details and entry form today!
Jump on over to the Tournament Page and check out the schedule and follow my updates after each tournament!
In these pages, I hope to shed a little light on the fishing situation here in the lost world of North East Ohio. I hope to have photos of the lakes of the area, like Berlin Reservoir, Lake Milton, West Branch Reservoir, Mosquito Lake and the Portage Lakes. I also hope to have photos and info on Tappan, Saltfork, Seneca and the Ohio River - all of which are in southern Ohio.
As a matter of fact, I am not going to exclude any place in Ohio. If there is enough interest out there, we will just have to open it up to any place, not just Ohio. I have heard Ohio is Purgatory for Bass Angling, but Jeff was talking out his wazzu when he said that.
By the way, the animated graphics you see throughout this site are from Pickafish at Geocities. Visit the guy's website and thank him for his collection of animated GIFS!!!
