The Northern Illinois Division held their second tournament of the year. Friday night started off great with a great meal provided by Karen & Doug Almon. Harlan Gates gave a great message on having your heart prepared to meet Jesus, just like you prepare for fishing.

Once again another cold front hit with temperatures at take-off hovering around freezing and winds blowing around 30m.p.h. This did not stop the angler's from wanting to get out there and fish. Not only did the weather try to stop anglers, but also mechanical problems for both first and second place. The eventual winners were dealing with battery issues, while second place was dealing with motor problems. They both toughed it out and it only came down to ounces between them. The winners were Jerry & Greg Olsen with 11 lbs. 10 oz. Second place went to the boat of Justin Romines & Cory Stuart with 11 lbs. 4 oz. Third place went to Dave and Gabryelle Schultz with 9 lbs. 7 oz. Fourth place went to Joe Sanderson & Adam Markiewicz with 8lbs.4 oz. Fifth place went to Matt Terry & Mark Olson with 7lb 9oz. Sixth place went to the boat of Ryan Boswell & Lee St. Aubin with 5lbs. 13oz. The 7th place boat was Mark Thompson & Jim Kachel with 1lb. 12 oz.
Big bass honors went to Joe Sanderson & Adam Markiewicz with 2lbs. 13oz. & second big bass went to Dave & Gabryelle Schultz with 2lbs. 1oz. We had two new boats show-up and we were happy to see them. We also would like to thank all the anglers for coming out & hope to see them next month.
We would also like to thank all of our sponsors for their contributions to our organization: Strictly Fishing & Archery, Big Bear Rods, Plano Tackle, Rayjus Outdoors, Dolphin Carwash, Hoffman Transportation, Lukanator, Christian Life Assembly, DHP Baits, Shopwerks, Gas City Frankfort.
