HiberniaHibernia Bassmasters is back! Not just for 2022, but we are BACK. 23 anglers showed up for the first event of the year, setting a modern day record. 17 members, 1 lifetime member, 2 prospective members (voted in after the tourney), 2 youth member-guests and 1 guest. An excellent turnout, especially so given the weather conditions.
Taking the win in the year’s inaugural tourney was Barry, catching one of the day’s 6 limits. His best 5 weighed 11.37. He may have had icewater in his veins!
2nd place goes to Ricky with a limit weighing 10.72. Alas Ricky wasn’t available to be photographed.
3rd place goes to new member Nate. He didn’t manage a limit, but his 3 for 9.05 got him paid.
Coming in 4th, in his 1st tourney ever, was youth member/guest Jackson. Not only did he out-fish his Dad on the front of the boat, his 3 fish bested 19 other anglers. With 23 people we paid the 4th spot for the first time.
Rounding out the field and catching one of the few largemouth on the day, guest Michael earns the big fish with this 5.08 lb big chungus.
Full results follow. Next up is Kerr on March 12.
