We sent three teams to the championship on Pickwick Lake in Alabama last week. Overall it was a pretty solid derb for the guys earning some respectable finishes. Big thank you to all of our sponsors and supporters that help us out! 🔴⚪️

We sent three boats to the Indiana BASS nation state championship at Geist last weekend. Nick and Jake lead the pack with a second place finish missing the win by less than half a pound. Heartbreaking given that the Winner qualifies for the national championship in August! We are heading to Pickwick Lake for the national championship in just under two weeks. Stay tuned and wish us luck!!
The new Revo Voltiq is the DEAL! Say goodbye to backlashes with the all new digital breaking system. Check them out, you will not be disappointed!
The 4” chigger craw is a staple on the back of a jig for our team, and was a key player in Dre and Eli’s win over Purdue!
Be sure to pick up some maxscent generals before your next fishing trip. Our club member Harrison says they’ve been biting it!!

We were invited out to a private lake in Indianapolis for a small club tournament and put on quite the smash fest. Alex and Eli took home the W with 17.01lbs and a 4.25 BB!
Between the 3 boats we caught over 200 keeper bass and had an absolute ball casting at fish that had never seen lures before. We can’t wait to get back out here!

We had our annual tournament against Purdue this past weekend for the Old Minnow Bucket at Morse. We sent 4 boats and Purdue sent 5 boats. Our guys were able to get 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th to take home the win for the Hoosiers by a huge margin! Congrats to underclassmen Dre and Eli on the win with 15lbs, the future of the team is in good hands!!
Retired IU professor and founder of the IU bass club back in 1987 Steve Lutz was able to make it out from Illinois. He said multiple times that this was the best day of his entire life!

We sent 3 teams to the lunkers trail stop #2 at Santee Cooper Lakes and it was an absolute slugfest! Alex & Will led the charge with 21lbs 0oz for a 49th place finish. Nick fished solo and caught 9lbs 5oz for a 152nd place finish out of 250 teams. Unfortunately, one of our teams has mechanics issues and was unable to fish the tournament.
One of our key baits was an maxscent 5” general in green pumpkin candy on a wacky rig. We have a lot coming up during the month of April, so stay tuned!!
