The Green Lake Crawl

Green Lake, July 29th 2012:
 
What a Day! As we launched the rain & wind started. By about 10:30 the rain & wind stopped, the sun came out and calm
waters arrived. Most fished the weed lines and breaks. Some ventured in closer to shore. But at weigh in Jeff & Eric came in with the winning bag, 14.24lbs!! Texas rigged worms & grubs were their ticket. Congrats to Jeff & Eric! Also congrats to Wayne & Adam with the Big Fish weighing 3.86lbs.Senkos, hollow frogs, jig worms & drop shot also worked. With three events left, the race for AOY is tight! Will the Wilson Clan keep ahead or will another angler emerge?
Next stop is the mighty Mississipi launching from the Anoka dam on 8/19/12.

Forest Lake:
What a beautiful day! The sun was shinning & the temp was in the mid 80's. Everyone came in with their limit but one
pair would taste victory! Adam & Nick pounded docks in very shallow water and came in with the bag! 16.76lbs. & Big
Fish 3.82lbs. Slug Go's & Senkos were it! The rest of the field weighed in with just over a pound separating them from
second to last. Other baits of choice were frogs, jig worms & assorted plastics. Nice job Adam & Nick. Adam leads
the AOY, but Nick, Sean & Kevin are on his heels! Can't wait for the Green Lake Crawl!

Island Lake Reservoir Day One:
The Day started out cloudy & rainy. The fish were biting and we hooked them. Soft plastic & jerk baits seamed
to do the trick. We had a great day & just as the tournament wrapped up the rain ended! This was the first time
in Sunrise History that No largemouth bass were brought in! All Smallies!! Congrats to Joe, Adam & Sean!

Island Lake Reservoir Day Two:
We wroke up to very nice weather, too nice. The smallies had moved off structure near the shore
and were scattered. We threw the kitchen sink but came up a little empty. The rain would have been a
weclome site. For the second day in a row, No largemouth! Congrats Joe, Nick & Sean!

Balsam Lake:
 
The day started out great, but by 9:00am the temperature started to climb & the wind began to howl! Balsam Lake was not kind to the Sunrise Bassmasters.
Congratulations to Jeff & Sean who came in 1st with a meager 3 fish that weighed 4.90lbs. Ryan & Kevin N. followed in 2nd with 3 fish weighing 4.19lbs. John & Nick came in with the BIG fish, 2.08lbs!!
Jigs, jerkbaits, and spinners seemed to somewhat work. All & all this was a real tough day. Hopefully the Island lake Reservoir Double Rumble will be kinder to the Bassmasters!
