Mason Dixon hopes everyone had a blessed Easter yesterday. We appreciate the 29 boats that showed up at Pinchot this past Saturday. We had great weather. A few of us, especially me, expected that there would be a 6lb fish caught but the big fish was a 4.68 that was caught by the team of Yohe and Bowers. That means there is a carry over for the 6lb bonus money. Currently there is $760.00 in that prize pool.
Congrats to the team of Yohe and Bowers who weighed in 14.67 for first place. The team of Dravk and Senft got 2nd place with a bag of 13.83. Third place went to L. Hansford and S. Hansford with 10.46. 2nd lunker went to Holewinski and Bays with a 4.54.
The next open tournament is our midnight madness overnight tournament at Marburg on August 14th. Launch time is 7 PM. Hope to see you all out there.

Looks like the weather report for Saturday has improved. Calm winds in the morning and 9 MPH by the afternoon. No chance of rain at this time. High of 81 degrees and mostly sunny after a 3-day period of mostly cloudy. Plenty of slots left for the April 4th open at Pinchot. Hope to see you out there.

The next open tournament is at Pinchot in just over a week, Saturday April 4th. Registering in advance gets you a lower boat number. No 6lb bonus was paid out at the last tournament. Might be time to collect a big pay-day on a fat fish.

I can't tell you how much we appreciate everyone who showed up Saturday for our first open tournament of the season. It was ridiculous windy. We could not even sit up the table and canopy. We had to work out of the trailer. I think everyone thought this was one of Chad's lunker tournaments. Everyone weighed in just 1 fish. Congrats to the team of Traband and E. Hansford who got the big fish and 1st place with a 5.61. Right behind them with the closest weight I ever processed was Prince and Miller with a 5.60. Hope to see you all at Pinchot on April 4th in just 3 weeks.

Good morning fishing fans. The ice is completely off of Marburg. The tournament is on for this coming Saturday. This is the first weekend where the ice is off the water. Traditionally a great time to catch one of those big females. They have been trapped under the ice for the winter and I'm sure they are hungry. The weather is projected to be pretty decent for this time of year. No rain and mostly sunny. High temperatures near 50 by the afternoon. Hope to see you out there. Spread the word.

It has always been our belief at Mason Dixon that getting the young interested in tournament Bass fishing is essential to growing our sport for the future. This is one reason that we run a 50/50 drawing at each event to support the youth programs.
Although our open tournament rules say that you must be 16 years old to compete and accompanied by an 18 year old, Mason Dixon is going to make one narrow exception because of the above stated reason of getting more youth involved.
If you wish to participate in one of our opens and you want to bring your own minor child in the boat with you, this will be permitted. It will be permitted as long as you sign a waiver of liability for that child over whom you have legal responsibility.
It would be appreciated if you would advise us in advance that you intend to have a minor child accompany you so we can be prepared.
Thank you and feel free to get those kids involved.

Mason Dixon Bass Anglers was pleased to present a plaque to the Hanover Auto Team showing our appreciation of their support during the 2025 fishing season. Without the sponsorship of this organization we would not be able to bring to you the events that we conduct each year. Please consider using Hanover Auto Team for all of your automotive repair and purchasing needs. Thanks.

Well it's not spring yet. In fact this is the coldest weather we have had in a number of years. We are still working our way through the new DCNR permitting process for our tournaments for this year. I don't have a finalized and approved calendar as of yet but I wanted to share with you for your planning purposes what we are trying to schedule. If approved, our first open tournament will be March 14th on Marburg. The second open tournament will be April 4th on Pinchot.
I will either publish an approved schedule or go back out with a further announcement that DCNR has not completed their process on time for us to conduct those two events.
For now, stay warm and we hope to see you out there in March.
