Jess Stewart Wins Angler of the Year
(posted November 17th, 2011)
Our season finale at Banner Creek Lake was geared up to be a slug out between current leader Jess Stewart and reigning champion Ron Kling, Jr. Only three people showed up, making it the 2nd Banner Creek tournament this year to be cancelled due to poor turnout. Jess, Ron and Bill showed up to collect 15 pts. each, making Jess our 2011 Angler of the Year. Ron finished a close 29 pts. back in 2nd place overall and Bill took home 3rd place overall, only 66 pts. back. Overall big bass of the year goes to Ron with his 6.9 pounder from the first tournament of the year at Bilby.
Jess had his best day ever at Harrison, won our club angler of the year, finished 13th overall at State, was on the Championship team at State, and is most likely heading to the Red River to compete in next year's BASS Central Regional tournament - not too bad of a year. Congrats Jess!

Pony Creek Redemption
(posted August 11th, 2011)
Today's storyline highlights... Jess oversleeps and gets to the ramp right at blast off time. Jess watches Ron set the hook on a 2 pounder as Ron Breaks his G.Loomis rod in half, but still manages to get the fish in. Bob watches Jess catch what we thought would be the big bass of the day at 4.12, until a little while later Jess watches Ron catch a 5.1 for big bass. At the end of the tourrnament Ron gets to play Junior Game Warden and help the real game warden nab some violators. Then turns around and has all of our licences checked by the game warden. Everyone passed.

Ron Kling, Jr. (and Jess Stewart) Shatter Club Record at Harrison County Lake Tournament
(posted June 13th, 2011)
Don Weddle held the club record for most weight in a 2-day tournament for almost two years with 26.70 lbs. (at Harrison County Lake) - but Ron Kling and Jess Stewart managed to destroy that record this year. Ron won the tournament with a total of 36.60 lbs. and Jess had 31.50 lbs. Jess led after the first day with an impressive 21.80 lbs., and luckily Ron escaped his hotel room Saturday morning to end up catching 21.60 lbs. on the first day. Jess had a lifetime best catch for big bass on Saturday with a 6.30 pounder (and a 5 pounder as well).
Day two was quite a bit slower, but Ron managed to take over the lead and win the tournament by catching five more weighing a total of 15.00 lbs. Jess finished in 2nd place overall, only finding three on day two for 9.70 lbs., but won the day two big bass with a 4.00 pounder. Josh Ramer finished 3rd a little bit further back with a two day total of 12.00 lbs. Bob couldn't make the tournament and drops to 3rd place overall in the standings as Ron takes over the lead (again) and Jess moves into 2nd overall.

Frank Novak Tops Almost Every Club Member at Burchard
(posted May 22nd, 2011)
A big turnout for a crowded day on Burchard left Frank Novak with his first win of the year with 5 bass weighing 15 lbs. 7 oz. Roger Alexander had a great 2nd place finish with 4 bass weighing 11 lbs. 12 oz and Dean James had 3 bass weighing 8 lbs. 15 oz. Big bass went to Bill Hinz and Josh Ramer, who each caught a big bass - one measured 21 3/4" and the other was 21 1/2". The golden rule had Bill's at 6 lbs. even and Josh's weighing 5 lbs. 12 oz. - the scale had them weighing exactly the same, so they split the big bass.
Eleven guys showed up to the lake with a total of 21 keepers caught weighing a total of over 52 lbs. The lake was crowded with lots of bluegill anglers, canoers, bank anglers, and other people - all out on what turned out to be a pretty nice weather day.
Next tournament is a two day trip to Harrison County Lake on June 11th & 12th. Please let Jess or Derek know as soon as you know if you're going so we can reserve rooms.

Last Year's Champion Has Great Day 2 to win LOZ
(posted May 22nd, 2011)
Six guys showed up for our 2-day tournament at The Lake of the Ozarks to fish for several days in very low water conditions, muddy and debris filled water, and rough bass fishing overall. After saying, "I'm never coming back here." after a rough first day, Ron Kling managed to catch 4 bass weighing 11.3 on day two. Ron barely slipped past Bob Ivey, the leader after day one. Bob had a 4 bass weighing 11.9 on day one, but only managed a nice 3.6 pounder on day two. Frank Novak finished in third with a blank on day one and 2 bass weighing a total of 5.7 lbs. on day two.

Last Year's Champion Returns

(click on photos for larger view)
Ron picked up right where he left off with an exceptional bag of 4 bass weighing 17.3 lbs. Bob had a fat 6.2 pounder, but is wans't enough for big bass - Ron had a 6.9 pounder. That bass may or may not be the biggest bass caught in one of our club tournaments.
Bob had another bass giving him a 10.0 pound bag of two bass to finish in 2nd place. The only other guy to catch anything was Jess, who had a 2.7 pounder to finish in 3rd place.
We had a great turnout of 10 guys, with 5 of them packing up and heading home early. The fishing was rough for most of us and we all fought the 20-30 mph winds all day long. Next tournament in just two weeks at Mozingo!

Want to Join a Bass Fishing Club?

Roger Alexander with a pair of nice bass
from one of last year's club tournaments
Our club is looking for new members. Most of our members live in southeast Nebraska, but our club schedules tournaments in Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska. Many of our members live in the Falls City, Auburn and Nebraska City area, but we have a couple of members who live in Kansas.
We are always looking for members that have their own bass boats and non-boaters are always welcome too. Most of our members have their own bass boats, so we usually have plenty of room for non-boaters to participate. We usually schedule about ten club tournaments every year. Our club is very relaxed - we meet up at the lakes for our tournaments, we have one meeting after the tournament season, and then our yearly club banquet in January.
Membership Questions
Most people's first question is "how much does it cost?" Our club is a member of the Nebraska BASS Federation which costs $50 per year to be a member. BASS Federation Nation members receive a subscription to BASS Times magazine, as well as many other benefits.
Members must also be a member of BASS, which costs about $15 per year. BASS members receive a subscription to Bassmaster magazine, tournament elegibility, BASS member credentials, free tackle, and many other benefits. Our club does not charge any additional membership fees, although you will be responsible for your own tournament costs (including entry fees, gas, tackle, lodging, etc.)
Tournament Eligibility
If you join our club, you of course are eligible to fish in our small club tournaments, but you will also be eligible to fish in the Nebraska BASS State Tournament. Each club in the Nebraska BASS Federation can send up to eight (8) anglers to compete in the state level tournament. The top 12 anglers in the state tournament are eligible to fish in the Central Regional tournament the following year. The top finisher from those 12 anglers advances to the BASS Federation Nation championship, where the winner of the six divisions will advance to the Bassmaster Classic.
Our club hasn't sent a full team of eight anglers to the state tournament in some time, so the past few years, our club has had a "if you want to go to the state tournament you can" policy when it comes to competing in the state tournament. Most clubs have anglers competing just to get to the state tournament, so if you join our club, you may already be past the first step of making it all the way to the Bassmaster Classic.
How to Join our Club
Joining our club is easy, just email our club president Jess Stewart at jbstew22@yahoo.com or our tournament director Derek Baze at admin@nebraskabass.com and tell us you want to join. We will also be more than happy to answer any questions you might have.

2011 State Tournament
Truman Reservoir, MO
Jess and Derek teamed up with the Big 8 Bassin' club and actually showed up this year. Jess finished 13th overall and is the official alternate for the BASS Central Regional tournament at the Red River, LA in 2012.
Jess and Derek were both in the top 13 going into day 3, but Derek blanked and dropped to 25th overall.
As a team, the Big 8 Bassin' (including Jess & Derek) managed to dominate the team competition. They were the leaders through all three days and won the team competition. Jess and Derek will let you look at their champion plaques... if you sign up for next year's state tournament at Grand Lake.
