HAPPY BASSIN’ NEW YEAR!!
First things first! Thanks to all of you for a
SUPER 2009. It was a scary year at the beginning with the
economy, etc., but we ended up booking over 600 client days
before it was over. Thanks! We started the end of February
with some tough days and cold water, and ended the first of
December with the river icing up and eventually freezing
solid. It was a good catching year with over 30 Master
Angler Smallmouth Bass (20”+), over 50 Trophy Smallmouth
(18” – 20”), over 60 fishermen joined the 100+ Club by
catching more than 100 smallies in one day, and one
fishermen joined the 200+ Club (only 8 fishermen have done
that with in the last 20 years).
The Biggest Fish honors are shared this year by: Jack
Hanselman Jr. on April 2nd caught a monster 23” X 15 ½”; and
Tom Nelson on April 30th caught a 23 ½” X 15”. The Most Fish
honors goes to Dike Dame, for his efforts on August 18th
with 203 smallies. The first Master Angler fish came March
7th, and the last monster fish came September 24th. The
first 100+ day was May 29th, during a heat wave, and the
last was September 23rd.
There was a lot learned in 2009, and the use of braided line
was at the top of the list. It’s narrow diameter, high
visibility, and sensitivity made it a winner. The use of a
number of new techniques at the right time also produced
some great results.
What’s it gonna cost this year? The SAME as the last five
years: $225 per person (based on two or more fishermen) for
day trips and children 13 and under are ½ price; $325 per
person per day for overnight trips. We “sold out” the
overnight trips the last two seasons, so call early for your
trip dates. GOOD NEWS: those that book and pay their deposit
before the end of the Portland Sportsman Show (February10th
–14th) will receive a 5% discount. Please, call soon with
your dates, and SAVE some $$$$.
Thanks again for your past patronage!
