NWBASS LK WA Predictions

Who do you think will win? Weight? Largies, smallies, or mixed bag. Here are some notables that usually do well:

Eckstrom/Grafe

Hall/Turner

Gemmall/McMannis

Minderman/Smith

Hobbs/Wolsky

Lochow/Lind

Vance/Vance

Lebsack/Lesher

Who else?

I will go with the obvious....Eckstrom/Grafe, all smallies for 20.86lbs, and a 5.2bf

Looking at ABA Results from last wkend 17lbs bags are being taken , but lots has changed since then .

I honestly think that based on the warm temps all week that the bite will be Hawt for most anglers IMO ..

As for the winner , i think that it will take atleast 20+lbs for first (Thats always the case ) ..As to who the lucky angler will be this year , ummm "Its anybodys bag IMO" , Get 5 of the right bites and its game over !!

I put Hobbs on atleast 18lbs easy !!

Hobbs and Wolsky with 21.24lbs. I think it will be pretty easy to come by 15-17lbs. Good luck to you all I'm hitting the road!

I think a little over 20 to win it, and 15+ to cash a check.

Hobbs/Wolsky- you can rest easy because I have a PB LM to catch.

Chris Ferrry and partner

Josh Potter and Mike (he wishes Bess)

I think there will be at least 10 teams over 17lbs. It will be a shoot out.

hey chad don't put money on us.. LOL.. we aren't fishing it this year..

good luck everyone i'm sure there will be lots of good bags weighed in.. i'm guessing a 21.72 with a big green one thrown in, or close to 21 without green..

16 pounds to collect a check.

I'm going to venture to say 22-23lbs and all smallies.

I"m goin to venture 21.98lbs with a mixed bag. Gemmill/McMannis will be tough to beat, and hobbs/wolsky will be in the top 5.

Congrats to Hobbs/Wolsky on the win with 18.10lbs. They had a big largie that put them over the top. Walcker/Ruffin were just behind with 18lbs. They had a mixed bag with two big largies. Marcantonio/Matkowski were third with 17lbs. Johnny Walker had big fish with a 6.24lb largie, that just edged out Chris Ferry's 6.20lb largie.

Northwest bass puts on a great tournament and what a great Big fish pot! I took home like $1800 in cash a prizes for one big LMB! I didn't get the 8.5 I know is in there from last year but the 6.24 did it. That's just awesome and I can't say thanks enough to Gary and all for putting on a great tournament on the West side.

Thanks to Sniper Lures and Panic Minnow for keeping my head up after a bad season, and all the Northwest Bass anglers for making me feel welcome at the event.

Congrats Ron and Wolsky... winning tournaments for those guys are like Gimme putts!
