LAKE: Belton
DATE: February 19, 2011
TIME: 7:00am – 3:00pm
WEIGH IN: Arrowhead

The Mr. and Mrs. Bass Club of Austin held its second tournament of the 2011 season Saturday February 19th on Lake Belton.  Every team that fished brought a fish to the scales despite the extremely tough fishing on Lake Belton.  After it was all said and done Team “we sleep in before every tournament and sometimes fish until weigh in” Tyree took top honors bringing in a four fish sack weighing 5.87 pounds.  Jesse Sanchez takes the men’s big bass honors with a nice 3.16 pounder which is also now the current 2011 men’s big bass.  Women’s big bass for the tournament goes to Donna Tyree weighing 1.63 pounds.  We now set our sights on Lake OH Ivie for our spring two day tournament on March 26th and 27th.  Hopefully the big bass will be more cooperating when we arrive at OH Ivie then they have been so far this year!

LAKE: Dunlap
DATE: January 22, 2011
TIME: 7:00am – 3:00pm
WEIGH IN: I-35

The Mr. and Mrs. Bass Club of Austin held its first tournament of the 2011 season Saturday January 22nd on Lake Dunlap in beautiful New Braunfels.  For most of the teams that braved the icy morning temperatures, Lake Dunlap turned out to be a “Dunflop”.   Eleven Mr. and Mrs. teams participated in the season opener and despite the initial high expectations for this fishery, only one limit of bass was caught on this day and the biggest fish landed was less than three pounds.  Three teams failed to bring a single bass to the scales.  There was another tournament held at the same time and ramp and they reported equally low numbers of bass weighed in.  Despite the lower than normal number of bass caught, the Mr. and Mrs. Bass Club still had a successful and fun tournament to start the 2011 year.  As we always do, club members had a nice time eating together and telling fish stories at Schobels restaurant after the tournament.  Club members now set their sights to Lake Belton where the next tournament will be held on February 19th.
