The 2015 MarDon Open Bass Tournament is this Saturday and Sunday, May 16 and 17. This tournament is a CWFAC fundraiser and this is open to the public. The weigh-in on Saturday at 3 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. We invite anyone who enjoys a good bass weigh-in and raffle to come on down and enjoy the festivities. We will be selling raffle tickets all weekend and the drawing will be Sunday after the weigh-in. In addition to our general raffle we will also raffle off two Lowrance GPS fish finders. This is a catch-and-release tournament.

Walleye fishing has been really great all week long. Wednesday's storm slowed the bite down a bit but it is already picking back up. They are catching them trolling a worm harness set up with a slow death hook. Be aware that Potholes Reservoir is near high pool so navigation is readily available to almost any part of the reservoir.
