Fishers of Men Bass Club, Springfield, Mo

Everyone got soaked Saturday during our monthly May 21st tournament on Table Rock but the fish were biting.  Congratulations to Dave Dorland and Matt Pursley for their 1^st place finish.  Their total boat weight of 20 LB 12 OZ is the highest finish for a six fish limit in years.  Their 6 LB 4 OZ kicker fish didn't hurt.  Rob Catlett had the highest personnel weight in the tournament of 18 LB 13 OZ and five of Rob's and Tim's six fish limit were over 3 pounds!   I'd like to welcome our newest club member,  Mr. Kent Marscheck to Fishers of Men Bass Club.  Kent recently moved to Springfield from Las Vegas, Nevada.  I understand Kent has already bought a Ranger bass boat and is ready to start bass fishing.
