“Hooked On Jesus” Tournament Trail Begins for Family Fishing

 

May 11, 2007

 

Columbus: The First Annual “Hooked on Jesus” Tournament Trail started its season last Saturday May 5, 2007, at Alum Creek Lake. John Norris, Tournament Director, was running the show at the ramp early that morning with fresh brewed coffee and bottled water. Twenty-one (21) boats registered for the tournament with combinations of husband/wife, adult/junior and male/female teams.

 

The tournament ran from 7:00AM until 12:00 noon, however many teams came in early due to the spring downpour that started about 11:30AM. But the weather did not affect the amount of fish that were caught and weighed. Over half of the teams weighed fish with the top prize going to Jeff and Belinda Melsop with 8.37 lbs total weight. Tommy and Janet Tucker came in second with 6.67 lbs and they also had big bass at 4.00 lbs. Third place went to Ray and Ramona Patts with 3.78 lbs and 4th place went to Scotie and Margarita McClain with 3.03 lbs.

 

During and after the weigh-in, all participants enjoyed a pot luck that was sponsored by the “Hooked on Jesus” Tournament Trail, Buckeye Outdoors and many other sponsors and participants. Hot dogs, with the best coney sauce I have ever eaten, were served with chips, baked beans and cookies. Tea and Lemonade were also available. Even in the pouring rain, huddling under 3 tents, the atmosphere of good food, good fishing and good friends made the day.

 

The next stop on this tournament trail is Buckeye Lake on Saturday, June 9, 2007 at the Liebs Island ramp. Hope to see all of you there with your family and/or friends and bring your own chairs.

 

 I would like to take time to say Thank you God for a very Bless day and to you Lord for keeping everyone safe that day. I would also like to say thanks to all the Husband's and wife’s and the father's and mother's that took time out of their day to spend time with each other and build relationships. Thank you to all the people that brought the cookies and brownies, they were great! And thank you to all the people that help that day. A special thank you to all our Sponsors for their great support. May God Bless and be with you in the up and coming weeks. See you at Buckeye Lake!
